I added a playlist to Auto DJ. Then went to Auto DJ to test drive the various options. So basically, I would choose a setting (for example, Fade on Outro) and then enable Auto DJ. Once the song was playing I would manually move it towards the end of the song so I could take a listen to the transition to the next song. This is the same process I use to manually test and refine the recordings on the stable version. I've never had any issue with this type of testing on the stable version.

In the beta version, everything would seem okay for a while, but eventually a song would freeze or get stuck and make a weird "stuck" sound, and then eventually the app would just shut down. I tried it on two separate days, and got stuck on different songs, so it didn't appear to be recording specific. Also all these recordings were played without issue via Auto DJ on the stable version after I rolled back to the stable version.

You might suffer a decoding issue tracked in https://bugs.launchpad.net/mixxx/+bug/1899242

This fails a debug assertion which is a fatal error in debug builds.

We have changed this behavior in:
#3680

Please retry your test with a recent 2.3 build and report if it still happens.
If yes, please provide the mixxx.log from the failing run.

I’m a little confused. I read through the associated bug report but it
doesn’t indicate that any changes were made to address the issue.

Also, I do not believe I was seeing the issue only with particular files.
But I will try to retest this and confirm.

I did not recompile from source code, I simply downloaded the latest beta
version from the web site. If this was addressed, do I need to recompile
from source code to retest or is the fix in the version that’s available
for download on the Mixxx site?

If I do decide or need to download the source code and recompile, what
language is the source code in?

I’m a Windows software developer, so not sure if I will have the right dev
environments handy but I’m willing to give it a try if necessary.

Please advise.
