DescriptionThe problem is that when I try to play it crashes and I have to kill the process
The only strange thing that happened to me is that when I was about to load the audio track, I made a mistake and instead of loading the .ogg file, I mistakenly loaded the audacity .aup file.
I jump an error, so far everything ok, load the ogg, everything ok, I put it in the timeline everything ok... but when I hit play... crash

I can open the project, work on it, but when I press play it crashes.

I opened the file again, deleted the audio, put the text effect ... all good until I press play.

I am not concerned at all, it was a newly started project. But if it happens to me when I've been working on it for hours... I think I need a drink... it gave me a chill.

The video isn't very interesting and bad, but I attached the .xml file for testing.
What did I do wrong? because loading an audacity xml with extension .aup shouldn't cause this.

P.S. I take this opportunity to remember the error of forgetting not to change "Replace current project" when I intend to upload a file to the project... I would greatly appreciate a notice here. Something like "The current project will be closed and a new one will be started with this or these files. Are you sure" OK or Cancel.

I'm glad it was helpful. I don't know what I did, I'm still a bit lost with keyboard shortcuts. Sometimes I confuse with Blender, others with Maya ...
About: The problem with this is EVERY TIME you load a file ...
Would this warning be possible only when there are unsaved changes in the loaded project and this occurs?
It is not very important either, but it is something that happens to me more than desired.

Without success, I tried to find a sample .aup file to try to recreate the error. But I probably would not be able to anyway so will have to just hope that the locally generated fix here will solve any future similar problems.

Abou: "Replace current project" when I intend to upload a file to the project... I would greatly appreciate a notice here. Something like "The current project will be closed and a new one will be started with this or these files. Are you sure" OK or Cancel."
The problem with this is EVERY TIME you load a file, you have to answer this question. The majority of users absolutely do not want to have to answer this question and get mad at the extra requirement -- I know I do.

@RafaMar
Thanks so much for including the error.xml, session file, as it helped to find a fix. You seem to be very adept at finding these edge cases which is very helpful to get them fixed. GG was able to generate a fix that solves the problem even though we have no idea how you created this error in the first place. We tried unsuccessfully to create the same problem.

Somehow you created a "loop" area using "Shift-L" that is of zero length. To see it play you can load the file and the first thing you should do is keyin "Shift-L". This turns off the 0 length loop you somehow got in there. It may play off the end of the plugin though so you will have to stop it.
