Not that you should have to do this, but have you tried running tracker?

tracker reset -r

Problem solved !

How i have fix it:

1: devel-su 1: zypper install gdb 2: zypper install tracker-debuginfo

Then run : gdb /usr/libexec/tracker-extract as nemo when gdb runs type start, then it start debug the tracker and you can see where it crash, with my problem it was a corrupt mp3 file.

When gdb stops type continue

I hope this helps for other people.

The tracker should never die though, even when it encounters file corruption. This is a bug.

Hey, I am unable to assign an mp3 file to an ambience. No mp3 shown at all. All my mp3 files are stored on SD card. Tried tracker reset -r and reboot, without success. Being a rather "ordinary" user, I did NOT try tracker-debug. At least assigning a song as alarm or ringtone used to work in previous version of SF OS - although it was not remembered after reboot. As of now, running 2.1.1.26 as late adaptor I can use predefined sounds only.

I think you have the same problem like i have, try what i have explaine above. Good luck !

Thx for your reply, I am not skilled enough, I guess. After devel-su + password, prompt says:

[root@Sailfish nemo]# zypper install gdb

bash: zypper: command not found

Tried to run gdb directly, no success, command not found. BTW, Jolla MediaPlayer shows almost all of my songs (1430) from SD card, but play time 0 = zero. QuasarMX player shows 1462 titles, albums and all that as usual. So IMHO Jolla MediaPlayer is somehow connected. Reset of media database (via tools) not helpful, neither did a reboot of the device. Not critical, as I use QuasarMX, but maybe this info helps.

As Maus says: This is a bug, sry.

Any ideas?
