Beets stopping (seemingly) after every album

shredder_guitarist · January 17, 2022, 3:19pm

I wish i had more information to present on this… lets say for example I have 10 albums that need to be processed… what i’m observing on the cmd output is that all of the metadata is being queried for all 10 albums to the spec of the config file…after a few albums beats stops (or seems to stop processing) …If i select the cmd prompt and press enter on the cmd prompt window it begins to process again (perhaps this time moving data)…then it seems that the cmd prompt window simply just dies… I have verbose mode turned on, but it happens so quick i can’t tell why it’s quitting. This has become annoying enough to say something. I have updated to the latest version 1.6.0 in hopes that would fix it, but unfortunately it hasn’t. I have been working on the same 15 albums for about 4 hours now. With enough reattempts i have been able to move over a few, but the constant program failures is really slowing down the work.

providing my config file to hopefully provide insight, I am happy to show the log, but there is nothing relevent in it.

Hello! Since you said you’re running in verbose mode, perhaps the logging output is just obscuring an interactive prompt that beets is waiting on? Try hitting enter to repeat the prompt (or turning off verbose mode for your import).

shredder_guitarist · January 17, 2022, 8:41pm

Hi Adrian, thanks for the reply. The stagnant cmd prompt output isn’t really my issue, sorry for being unclear…it’s an issue, but not really the one i’m concerned about, the issue i’m concerned about is the cmd prompt dying after going through all of the albums to be scraped and organized…since i can’t really produce an error message in this case, lemme see if i can make a youtube video about it…maybe that would help ?

update ok I made a quick video, it’s only 2 minutes long but it pretty much sums up what’s happening
long pauses until i press enter (this part doesn’t bother me so much) the part that bothers me is that it’s just dying without completing and i don’t understand why
00:20 ish …program appears to either have stalled or is moving files
01:00 I start checking the source files to see if anything is happening/moving/updating
01:44ish I make the cmd prompt the active window again and press ‘enter’ and the cmd prompt dies (note, the cmd prompt window dies regardless if i intervene or not)

adrian · January 17, 2022, 9:41pm

I see. I think the main things to try are: (1) Is it possible to reproduce reliably? If so, you might try seeing if it’s always triggered by the same music. (2) Try disabling some/all plugins. (3) See if there are any patterns in the verbose log.

arogl · January 17, 2022, 10:22pm

I think you will find that beets is actually doing things in the background, like scrubbing, zeroing, fetching lyrics.

Even though threaded is enabled there is not enough work in the pipeline.

Try turning ```threaded`` to no and running in verbose mode, beets will stop at every prompt and you can see what is happening.

It also looks like you moving files to the NAS so that will be a slow process as well. You are moving FLAC files

Also in the video when you click on the cmd prompt window I see that a selection highlight pops up, cmd wont print anymore until that selection is completed through either hitting enter, select or copy/cutting something

You could try using Task manager to expand what the command prompt is running. If any external commands to beets are running you can see those as well.

Happy to see log from verbose output if still happens in non-threaded mode.

shredder_guitarist · January 18, 2022, 1:15am

Hi Both, I’ve tried turning threaded mode on and off, doesn’t seem to make a difference. I’d be surprised to know if beets is still running after the cmd prompt closes…I’ll have to check that.

I understand that there is a time delay for processing and moving…I don’t think that is the case here, I can see those things happening when verbose mode is enabled. I do get to read those things while the window is open, trouble is, when the window fails/closes It happens so quickly i can’t see what/if anything is wrong…Given that the source files are still in place, it leads me to believe that it was a failure.

Unless there is a log somewhere else, this is all that i can see printed in the log with or without verbose mode enabled. I’d be interested to know if there is a log somewhere else with verbose output…might even help me figure out where the issue is

going to try removing some of the CD’s and do 1 folder by 1 to see if it’s just a file issue

shredder_guitarist · January 18, 2022, 1:30am

ok, I finally got smart and stopped using a batch file, at this point in time I have mostly all plugins disabled except lyrics and info.

Now i was able to see this error…this makes me think it’s perhaps a permissions error…traceback is also not good, but fit looks like the files cannot be moved …but i can access the drive from the machine…Going to chase permissions

It is a known error that is being fixed in #4209 on Jan 12.

Try running beets …run the latest source version of beets?

And run not in batch mode again

shredder_guitarist · January 18, 2022, 2:02am

It processed a few albums which was a pretty big improvement over what it had been doing, but i get a different error now

After disabling the “embedart” plugin it was able to process the files…which is great! …but poses a new problem …how do i get the embedart plugin to to crash?

arogl · January 18, 2022, 4:00am

For the album that was being imported you might want to do beet ls -p just to see where the files are located.

I cannot see if the call failed due to missing album_art or the files to be embedded are where beets thinks they are.

shredder_guitarist · January 19, 2022, 1:58am

ok, I’ll re-enable the embedart plugin and circle back to this post… I run into this often so if/when i do I’ll post the error. Thank You for getting me unstuck!!

shredder_guitarist · January 25, 2022, 2:27am

simply noting that i experienced this again tonight but was unable to capture the error message, I tried the command you suggested, but it listed all my albums and there is no way the command prompt buffer goes back far enough to retrieve it… I 'll get the error message next time around before trying the command

arogl · January 25, 2022, 4:59am

maybe try beet ls -p added:today

You may have to put today’s date in YYYY-MM-DD format if today does not work

Sorry, I am wondering if either the source files, music or art, have been deleted or the destination files, as no files were added into the system on the day of import.

Not sure if files you are importing are local or located on the NAS device.

Can you try import again in verbose mode and include the full trace as well as the output of beet ls -p added:2022-02-04 and beet ls -p added:2202-02-03. Wanting to look at today’s date as well as yesterday as I remember there being a bug that used UTC time rather than local time.

No worries, just making sure this stays on top of the pile. I can sure try again, but wanted to provide an immediate response for the flow. Files are being moved from a data disk on a local machine where beets runs to a location on a NAS filer.

I’ll circle back with output, sorry how can i obtain the full traceback…the error message from before, I am only catching in the act when the error occurs. If I were to try to reproduce this, it would be the same way, unless there’s something else i need to enable or a path i need to look at?

One of these 2 files is deleted/missing from when beets checks for existence to the embadart comparison.

I am not sure how

\\Aries\\Multimedia\\Music\\Artists\\AC_DC\\1990 - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap\\thumb.jpg

Is being created? Does the NAS do some automatic creation of the thumb.jpg from the music file.
