Coollector Crashing after most recent update.

After I upgraded to the latest version crashes pop up in two ways.

If I select certain movies to view actors
or if i do a movie title search for the same movies.

It doesn't happen with all movies just a random mix throughout the database.

Mad Max 4
Paper Moon

Wow!

Are you in single-pane mode? Does it show an error message? Does it generate a crash dump?

No Crash Dump Generated that I can find. I'm running the portable Version it crashes in single and double pane modes.

It doesn't crash for me, so maybe it's a problem with your coollection file or with your movie database file.

To make sure that your movie database file isn't damaged, please download version 4.6.5 setup and install it (don't uninstall anything, just install) and tell me if it helps.

it looks like it's my coollection file. When It's not there it works I'll see if my last backup works

Let me know how it goes with the backups.

Please make a copy of your corrupted coollection file and send it to me.

Here's my email: hector at coollector dot com

Hi Hector,

it didn't change on backup database - I did try 3 of the latest (all dated BEFORE update) backups and the program keeps crashing. ;(

EDIT: dual- or single-panel did not change the issue, both are crashing
EDIT2: program is working well without (=with new) database

Thank you very much for the coollection file, problem was very easy to identify :)

I had made a small change on the way the program displays the location of a file, and unfortunately I've introduced a bug.

I'm working on a fix. I'll give you the fixed exe as soon as it is ready, and I'll release version 4.6.6 as fast as possible.
