Do not use 3.6.2 if you like your play lists

Aaron Pepelis · 2022-11-29T02:13:46+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

last week, I opened and closed it and it kept deleting the 4th track in a playlist. This week in a new playlist, it deleted almost everything. I'm sitting down to do a radio show and it's all gone. Look back and all the previous playlists and they are missing almost everything. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!

hey @Aaron Pepelis - this is a strange behavior that I haven't heard of before. I've created a support ticket for the issue so we can take a deeper look at what might be happening.

Ok. I see some of my old playlists in the backup. they save but don't open correctly. I dropped back to version 3.5.3.

So I copied this playlists entries. These were from a playlist for 2022-11-14 in the backup folder. I move them to my current collection and save.

it's missing like 1/2 the tracks. the Collection file has the write playlists in it. When I then save this, it over-writes the old file with the new one that is missing tracks.

It's not letting me post. Probably because the names on the songs. Anyhow, here is a file with the before and after playlists entries in them.

Aaron Pepelis

I found the tracks saved in the backup directory and pasted them back into the main collection file. When it loads, it's missing like 1/2 the tracks in the playlist so it saves what is in the bottom of the file.

Aaron Pepelis

ok... I just pasted it back into a playlist on my old machine... 3.5.1 and it has the same issue. What is going on here!

Aaron Pepelis

I dragged and dropped the last and 3rd to last tracks, closed/reopened and they are still there

is there any way to look at a log to see why it's straight up yeeting these tracks? I have never noticed this before on my old machine although it seems to be happening there now. What is the debugging process for this?
