1299 Playing a track causes auto-sync false resend [#6476]

[chrisjj]

If I auto-sync an MSC device (USB_Mass1.DLL), play the tracks in the library and auto-sync, MM erroneously resends the played files.

This has been confirmed by NH http://mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic. ... 93#p269693 and CJJ on SUBST drive http://mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic. ... 99#p269699.

CJJ has probably seen the same on MTP but this is unconfirmed.

EDIT: NH confirms on MTP:

It appears to be affecting all devices contrary to my initial post. I was able to replicate this problem on an iPod (d_iPod.dll), iPhone (d_iPhone.dll), and flash drive (with WMDM plugin).

NH, I wonder if the variability you see is due to whether the playcount is incremented. Does this depends on how far play reaches through the track?

I don't think so. Probably I just never noticed it before.

Playcount is only incremented when you listen to the end of the track. You can skip some of the track by using the seekbar; I think in that case you need to listen to at least 1/3 of the track for the playcount to increase.

OK, so do you think it could be striking you 100%?

Yes, definitely.

OK. Let's hope then that makes it easy for the Devs to reproduce. Because now that my sync is converting and levellling, this bug can cost hours on my 1700-track sync.

Thanks again NH.
