Bugzilla – Bug 3674
Playlists lost on rescan
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:39:24 UTC
this is similar to a bug that was fixed a while ago in 6.2/6.3. On rescan the playlists disappear. But if I touch a playlist and rescan, it reappears. 7/1 6.5 build.
Marc - are you running 'Rescan Playlists Only', or rescanning everything? Thanks
I think it happens with any rescan - but it certainly happened with rescan playlists only.
I've been seeing this as well. only the scheduled rescan blows away all the playlists; if I rescan while I'm playing a playlist, it seems that playlist and some random number of others will survive the rescan. running a wipe-and-scan puts everything back to normal, except that around the time the playlist-destroying started happening, I also discovered that some of my playlists were being saved as out of order--for example, for one album the playlist file is correct, listing the tracks 1,2,3,4,5,6, but slimserver has saved them as 3,2,4,1,6,5. may or may not be related. rescanning playlists only has a similar effect, seemingly related to the most recently played playlists (unless I haven't played one in a while, in which case it destroys all of them).
Marc, this is fixed in change 8449. Chris - can you open a separate bug for the playlist ordering issue if it's still occuring? Thanks
