GTKPOD crashes when - exporting tracks from database - selected tracks

I happen to be trying to export a large number of tracks (up to 5,000 or so) and before it crashes, tracks are actually exported ok. Sometimes at the crash then gtkpod stops and is not seen, would have to be started again. Other times the visible gtkpod related windows become unresponsive and graphics in them go blank.

It has not crashed now when I checked the box
'use selected charset ..... for this filename'
in the window
Select Export destination Directory

so it might be a charset issue in some way

(my earlier entries are with Ubuntu 9.04)
as said above, prior to the crashes, some tracks may be succesfuly exported.

Ubuntu 9.10:
It also crashes in the same circumstances when Ubuntu 9.10 is used

Same thing, I'm exporting a smart playlist to an SD card. It will sometimes finish with the progress bar, but never transfer the files. It also comes up with a nag window that says "Warning! the following has occurred:" with a list of files that don't have lyrics, and will never actually go away. Happened intermittently in 9.04, now can't even make it functional in 9.10.

I used to export files in Ubuntu 10.04 without problem but now gtkpod crashes before finishing. It happened in two different machines.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
