I think we'll want to get a copy of the track itself, if possible. The error that is causing the crash has to do with how the track is being decoded, so most likely there is some tiny problem with the file that most players are able to recover from but Mixxx is not handling gracefully. I'm not sure of the best way to get the track to us.

(to RJ: in general, should we really use ASSERTs? Or would it be better to catch these errors and try to recover from them? Just bombing out is not a very nice way to deal with these situations. For instance, we could just memcopy a bunch of zeros for this particular case.)
