I suspect that this bug is actually in one of the platform specific
codecs rather than media scanner itself.

We've done about all we can to mitigate these problems.  You'll notice
that the new crash you've attached is in a different executable now: the
codecs can only cause an extraction specific subprocess to crash now,
with the main scanner daemon continuing on.

Title:
  crash while pushing videos to device

Status in mediascanner2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I consistently get a mediascanner crash when I push videos to my
  device after flashing it.  These are the commands I run to send the
  videos:

  adb push ~/.cache/mwc/videos.tgz /home/phablet/Videos
  adb shell 'cd /home/phablet/Videos && tar xfvz videos.tgz && rm -f videos.tgz'

  The crash happens during the second command, extracting or removing
  the tarball.  The video tarball itself is the same one we used for the
  MWC demo a long time ago.

  The resulting crash file is attached.

  I recall seeing this frequently for a long time, but the crash file I
  attached is based on krillin-proposed rtm image 124.
