Comment 6 for bug 1228954

According to the user manual it requires approx 1 GB of ram, but when I try to run it, it will start fine for a minute or two, but then as it idles it starts eating up more ram for no reason.  One time it was using  5 GB of ram  thats when my system froze, and after about two minutes it crashed and my system returned to normal.
Note: I have 2GB of ram but it does the exact same thing on my 4GB computer with ubuntu 12.04 intel celeron 2.6ghz

Also it does not only effect/home/matthaus/Documents/Mixing Traxx 1 it effects others as well, the folder contains music

Hi Matthaus,

please provide as much details as possible. This way we might narrow the problem.
What do you mean with
"at times it  uses way more ram than it says it should use"

Is only the /home/matthaus/Documents/Mixing Traxx 1/ effected or other folders as well.
What is the content of the folder? Does it happen when you remove some of the files from the folder?
Maybe it is caused by a corrupt id3 tag of a specific file.

Kind regards,

Daniel
