Bugzilla – Bug 7581
Maintain Client Playlists -> Remember Playlist doesn't work when returning from SN
Last modified: 2008-11-04 03:19:18 UTC
Since upgrading to server software 7.0 (and then 7.0.1) the current playlist is not recalled when returning from Squeezenetwork or a server software restart. Instead I keep getting the an old playlist. I currently don't have any saved playlists but just the following files in my playlists directory. favorites.opml favorites.opml.backup infobrowser.opml infobrowser.opml.backup
This is apparently more of a Random Mix plugin bug than a playlist bug... I find that if I save a playlist or select a favorite or build a playlist explicitly from my library then the playlist is restored after a server restart, even after I delete the named playlist. Perhaps this problem only affects playlists which have been generated and maintained exclusively by the Random Mix plugin without having been saved at any point.
unable to reproduce this error when Restarting Server unable to reproduce this when switching SC to SC(SC-1 > SC-2 > SC-1) Able to reproduce this when switching from SC > SN > SC Steps to reproduce 1) Load a play list to Now Playing 2) Shut down SC 3) Start up SC - Notice that the previous play list is now loaded in Now Playing 4) switch SB from SC to SN 5) switch SB from SN to SC - Notice that the previous play list is no longer in Now Playing, it's blank User Expected behavior is that the last play list to be loaded would still be there when switching back to SC from SN
(In reply to comment #2) > unable to reproduce this error when Restarting Server > unable to reproduce this when switching SC to SC(SC-1 > SC-2 > SC-1) > > Able to reproduce this when switching from SC > SN > SC Also try the following. 1) Create a new playlist from an album, song, favorite, internet stream, etc. 2) Generate a new playlist by switching to Random Mix 3) Restart the server The playlist after restarting is the one from step 1, not step 2.
Random Mix Playlists are not saved after turning off SB3 or Softsqueeze. This is 98% of how I listen to my music - random mixes. would like the previous random mix saved instead of having to generate a playlist each time.
Think I am experiencing the same bug. I'm sure this used to work 6.5.1 and before. In my case the 'now playing' list is lost if generated by the 'random mix' plugin, and if power is removed from the SB3 (my amp uses a trigger/relay to cut power from various devices when not on). 100% repeatable with the following steps: 1. Switch on SB3 (ie power jack in) 2. Play an album and check it is in the now playing list, 3. Play random songs (Music Library/Random Mix/Play random songs) 4. Wait 30s for the screen blank to switch to 'Now Playing' (just in case the 'jump to now playing' is required to populate that list, 5. Press stop, and wait 5s to ensure no timing issues with the subsequent power off, 6. Power off SB3 (pull jack plug) 7. WAIT 2 minutes 8. Power on (jack in) and wait to start-up 9. Check Now playing list - it will show the originally played album rather than the random playlist. Oddly, if I wait only 1 minute or less at step 7 then it appears to work OK (as if the SB3 has some kind of short term memory save, or capacitor to cope with short power glitches). That explains why I had problems repeating the issue. Also, if I play an album rather than random songs then behaviour is OK (ie this is a problem with the random mix plugin). Currently running SC7.2 on XP.
Looks the same as bug id 9315
