Default Re: Composer 2.6.3 Crashing on Play

Hey Reinhold,

So how many bug reports do I need to submit before I get a free software license?

Here are a few more bugs to add to your list. These can be reproduced with Song1.not.

1. The 8va starting in measure 2 begins on the 3rd beat and ends on/after beat 2 of measure 4. Attempting to add notes in measure 4 after the 8va ends causes the notes to be added one octave higher than they should be.
2. Deleting the bar line between 2nd and 3rd measure (to combine measures) results in deleting of 8va, ties, and repeats. (Repeat start barline is changed to normal non-repeat start barline and the end barline is changed to a normal barline... though the repeating dots are kept for the following measure.)
3. Rebar deletes 8va and ties. (keyboard shortcut: ||es) The tied notes in this case are truncated from quarter notes to eighth notes. I've seen the note completely disappear before too!
4. Adding in a single measure repeat (measure 4) causes the play button to error with "Internal Program Error: c0000005 Address: 5acab0" when pressed after the song has played to the end. Removing the repeat avoids the problem. The following two issues (5 and 6) seem to occur because of this same bug.
5. Rewind to the start of song (ctrl-home) and press the play button (spacebar). Attempt to jump to the last measure by clicking on it. The song will stop with error "Internal Program Error: c0000005 Address: 5acab0". Rewind to the start of the song, press play and attempt to jump to the measure after all of the repeats (measure 5)... none of the notes in that measure play but the following measures play fine.
6. Restart notation composer, and open the file. Play the song to the end (spacebar) and then go to "Review and edit repeat instructions" (qri). Click on the second row. Select "Insert Above". Enter in 1,2,4,test. Press Okay and then press the spacebar to attempt playback. Result will be "Internal Program Error: c0000005 Address: 5acab0 (hit esc to clear message.)" and the following crash information:

Note that I was also getting similar crashes when trying to insert measures at the end of the song but it seemed to happen non-deterministically.
