Vompclient with tvscraper support - recordings menu crashing

[JTe]

Should the recordings menu of the TV scraper branch work already? For me it shows "Loading.." and after that the vomp client will crash in less than a second. Normal log shows (not much):

Sure it should work. But it is in pre-alpha test and I suspect many segfaults.
So your input on this is welcome. You should type in bash before executing vomp:

Code Select Expand

ulimit -c unlimited
this will turn the generation of core files on.
Then execute vomp and provoke the segfault.
After this execute

Code Select Expand

gdb -tui vompclient core
for looking at the core file.
It will show you the position were it crashed. This information will be very helpful for me.
Important is to know the position fromwhere the crash inside vomp came. So "bt" the backtrace for the calling stack and "up" and "down" to move up and down the calling sequence will be helpful for me to fix it.

Ok, it shows the following address:

Thanks, I have located the problem a fix is in git.
The bug was related to a folder without an recording, probably a folder with folder.
I do not have this, so other crashes are possible, since I did not test this.

I can confirm -it works now!
