    I also sometimes get the same problem, when I manually choose a song from my database while I'm playing some music.

    Is there a chance this bug gets fixed in a 1.2x version of Mediaportal, or do I have to wait for a 1.3x version and hope it will work in that version?

    Since we don't yet have a fix for this, I don't think this will be fixed in 1.2.3. Please bear in mind that we are a small team with full time jobs and families.

    As long as music plays, the skin properties not updating correctly is not as serious as some issues, so it will be a matter of when this gets to the top of someone's list and how easy it is to reproduce and fix the problem.

    Best wishes,

    Mark

    I have been unable to replicate or figure out what is causing this. (so possibly a timing issue).
    If I could replicate this at will then it would likely be quite simple to fix but the things I have considered so far have not worked (and this just uses the MP internal player notification of when tracks have changed)

    CypherMK,

    Could you please write a concise description of the problem and detailed steps to reproduce for the mantis entry, so that we don't lose track of this issue? Have a look at other mantis entries as a guideline.

    Post the description here and I will then add it to mantis.

    You (or maybe someone else) did say that there was another problem as well. Could you start a new bug report thread with that one, and we can try to get that verified and sorted as well.

    Thanks,

    Mark

    Hi Mark,


    Problem:
    When I have a playlist loaded with songs, I sometimes get, when the next song is playing, the info of the previous song that was played. This only happens in the 'now playing' screen! In the actual playlist, everything is fine.


    Steps to reproduce:

    Load a bunch of tracks and let it play. Go to the now playing screen (automatically and/or manually). Wait until the problem occurs (usually within a few played tracks). Go to playlist to see that the actual track that is playing is different than the track in the 'now playing' screen.


    Extra info:
    I normally use 'one button music' plugin. When I hit play, it will load 1000 random tracks from my database. Within a few tracks played, the problem occurs.
    When I just load an album, playlist etc. the problem will also arise within a few tracks played.

    Logs and screenshots: First post!

    The other problem I mentioned, isn't a bug I think. I think it is, because I use 'one button music' a lot, it also loads some *.m3u files stored in my music folder. When these are loaded, the music stops. But when I skip to the next track, the music will play again.
