NPE on upgrade to 0.70 - bubbleguuum - 11-04-2013 22:24
Hi Simon,
I upgraded from an older version to 0.70 on Windows and got the NPE below which I solved by removing miniserver's data directory to start from scratch.

To give more context on how it happened, the previous version of minimserver had 3 contentDir like this:
C:\Music\Labels
C:\Music\Lossless
C:\Music\blargh
This was not correct as I had moved these folders to G: and blargh had been deleted, so I changed the list to be
G:\Music\Labels
G:\Music\Lossless
minimserver rescanned the files but failed to launch on NPE above.
My guess is that it is due to the removal of that blargh contentDir =).

Thanks for reporting this.
There's a bug in the code that would cause this to happen if there was an EOFException reading a WAV file or an ADTS file. Does this seem possible?

Bingo! it was caused by a bogus 0 byte .aac file.

It will be fixed in 0.71. Many thanks!
