    Batch convert - error reading db command file

    Hi,

    Today I downloaded the trial version of dbPowerAmp, and installed it on a nice new iMac with an Intel Core i7 870 QuadCore CPU.

    I then started to batch-convert my 7000+ song library from FLAC to Apple Lossless. It started to chew on very nicely, estimating the conversion to take around 4 hours, working att 134x speed, keeping all CPU cores warm.

    However, after an hour or so, problems started to occur. First three dialogs popped up saying "Core Converter" - "Error reading dB Command File". I closed those and let it continue.

    It worked on for a few seconds, but then more and more of those dialogs popped up, until all hell broke loose. Now I've got my screen half full of them.

    What to do?

    Regards, Kenneth

      The problem occurred because the disk was full, but I would still like you to improve the behavior and error messages at full disk, to avoid users sending in unnecessary error messages (and unnecessary head-scratching).

        It would be the %tmp% folder which you could not write to, even the OS might struggle and randomly have issues if the %tmp% folder is not available.
