RE: runtime error
Thanks for letting me know about this problem. By looking at the crash dump files you sent, I have found what is causing this.

This can happen when you have "Recently Played" enabled and you are playing a file at the same time that a rescan is happening. Updating the "recently played" list requires access to some information that is being rebuilt as part of the rescan and if events happen in a certain order then you will get this error.

Specifically, if your list of recently played files (the played-files.txt file in the 'recent' folder) is already at its maximum size (300 by default but configurable up to 1000), playing a new file will rewrite this list and this is when the crash happens.

The problem will be fixed in the next MinimServer update. As a temporary workaround until this update is available, you can avoid playing a file while a rescan is in progress. Alternatively, you can manually edit the played-files.txt file to remove a few old entries. This requires care and should be done while MinimServer is not running.
