Hi there,

here are a workspace file in that you cant delete any audio file, because qlc crashes directly if you try it. This is a old bug, that returns in 4.12.2 - But not in all workspaces! Read more:

Steps to reprocude

1. load the workspace (delete_audio_bug.qxw) that i attached
2. Go to Functions Manager -> Audio and try to delete any audio file

Now QLC+ directly crashes!

I found out: If i delete all shows and all sequence in this workspace (so that only the audio files are left), than i can delete audio files without crash!

Hope that helps!

Used QLC+ 4.12.2 (full) on Windows 7

Best regards
CoS

Without the files included in your project 8-/ ...

I can delete them with no problem without touching anything
win 10 - QLC+ 4.12.2

Checking your project file with notepad I see something odd:

Code: Select all

<Source>D:/Exces Roissy/XII/Vorführungen/wav/Short2.wav</Source>
and

Code: Select all

<Function ID="384" Type="Audio" Name="Konzil_Wahl.wav">
   <Speed FadeIn="0" FadeOut="0" Duration="0"/>
   <RunOrder>SingleShot</RunOrder>
   <Source>D:/Exces Roissy/XI/Sound/Einläufe/wav/Konzil_Wahl.wav</Source>
  </Function>

Code: Select all

  <Function ID="563" Type="Audio" Name="spot2_kurz.wav">
   <Speed FadeIn="0" FadeOut="0" Duration="0"/>
   <RunOrder>SingleShot</RunOrder>
   <Source>D:/Exces Roissy/XI/Sound/Effekte/mp3/Spot/spot2_kurz.wav</Source>
  </Function>
In your project there are like 20 some spot2_kurz.wav referenced -> and there is even a .mp3 version of it too??

I like everything to be present in one folder (together with custom fixtures (3 missing!!)) and all files belonging to the project (script, light plan, patch list, director's notes, meeting notes, ... just name it).
Now I can take backups with really everything in it. As a security measure I put this folder in my dropbox (versions are also kept alive)... so when horror happens - I can revert to.
Even including QLC+ inside gives me the chance to dig out the whole project in let's say 2 years without any troubles running it with a future version of QLC+...

I'd suggest to you tidy up your project. (using the show capability creates a lot of hidden scenes and the show part I'm not very fond of IMHO... not stable)
