crashes- related to special characters in titles? - Version: 2.3.6, 7/7/2004 11:49AM PST

I'm seeing crashes during the formatting process. It occasionally crashes when it gets to "formatting track list... 2". Looking back over my recently played tracks in iTunes, perhaps it is due to special characters, such as " or : in the song title or album title. Just a thought... any one else seeing this?

I don't have complicated formatting, but I am using placeholders. The resultant page is here:

Otherwise Kung Tunes is pretty cool. It'd be nice if Live 365 gave broadcasters tools like this. They should pay this author to do it!

A lot crashier than I remember ... - Version: 2.3.6, 6/25/2004 09:40AM PST

I'm experiencing a significant number of unexpected quits with KT under 10.3.4 with iTunes 4.6. KT used to run for hours and days on end without crashing.

Is anyone else experiencing an increase in crashes? They can be particularly bad when they hose your formatting.

I found it very easy to implement. Although I did notice that it is a bit of a memory hog, and it it's processes take a long time to run. Could use a bit of optimization in my opinion. But great none the less.
