Research direction

Start with osx_crash_report.txt and reproduce the reported exit while audio levels are being generated for the loaded .mov project. Trace the waveform/audio-level generation and shutdown path shown in the terminal output; done means closing before calculation completes no longer causes a segmentation fault.
