Unknown bug in scanner code causing scan to go on forever.

Renamed all files to look identical to my second example. No change.

It is not a naming problem, and I think the culprit here is that one of the .cbz files is corrupted.

Basically a .cbz file is just a zip archive containing some images, and all Mango (and any cbz reader) does is unzip the file in memory and read the content. When the file is corrupted or is not a valid zip file, it cannot be unzipped.

Can you try to unzip the files using external tools like unzip if you are using Unix? If you see an error message like the one below, it means the file is corrupted (see this).

End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.

You can also check the file type using the file command. If it's a valid zip archive, you should see something like this:

$ file Ch.126.2\ .cbz
Ch.126.2 .cbz: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract

But I agree that the scanning process should not hang even when a corrupted file is present. In version 0.2.0 that I am working on, Mango would ignore any corrupted and invalid zip files when scanning the library. I will make a minor release soon to address this and a few other issues.

In v0.1.2, Mango would ignore the invalid files and log a warning message. Feel free to reopen this issue if needed.
