These are corrupt files. I think if you take a look at them, you will find they are less than 1K long.
It looks to me like the server is crashing trying to read a particular mp3 file. One thing to do might be to run it in debug mode (a link in your startup menu). It will probably grind for a while and then the window will close.
It will have generated a file called “firefly.log” in c:program filesfirefly media server. Look at that file with notepad and scroll to the bottom. See what the last file it was that it tried to scan. That’s your culprit. Move that file out of the music directory you are scanning and try again. Repeat until it scans okay and you can see it on the soundbridge.
If you find a file that makes it explode, I’d sure appreciate it if you could email it to me at [email protected]. That way I can fix it so it doesn’t make someone else pull their hair out. 🙁
