Windows XP Professional SP3 (unsupported, I know)
MuseScore 2.0 beta revision 1efc609.

I tried to import into MuseScore 2.0 a MusicXML file exported from Finale: this had already imported adequately into MuseScore 1.3. But in MuseScore 2.0, initially it reported a problem with the property - apparently negative values are illegal?

After I had edited the 3 occurrences of negative values into positive values, I tried again to import into MuseScore 2.0. This time, MuseScore crashed without any meaningful error message.

Attached is the original MusicXML file as exported by Finale, without any editing. It's probably a good test for MusicXML import, because this is a substantial choral work (ca 30 minutes) and includes mixed time signatures at the mezzo-soprano solo starting at bar 111. The soloist is in 4/4 and the piano reduction is in 12/8.

Thanks!

It doesn't crash here. It displays an error message which is legit: Dynamics are not supposed to have -1 value. But if I ignore the error and press Yes, the file is loaded.

Using MuseScore 53da48aa56

It does indeed crash in 2.0 Beta 1 though, (on Windows 7 Enterprise, 64bit), after having ignored that error. Doesn't crash on the latest nightly, so I guess we can mark it fixed?
