| Summary | 0010872: Now Playing doesn't show tags for UPnP files on restart | ||||
| Description | On most restarts of MMW client the UPnP files in the Now Playing (from other MMW server and not in MMW clients Library) show no tags. However sometimes (rare) it will show them in the Now Playing node (but not window) when clicking a file in the view (Title will show actual Title as tooltip while displaying Path in list) and nearly all files in view will receive tags. This can be repeated for other sections of the Now Playing node. However the Now Playing window did not show any tags. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| Fixed in build | 1663 | ||||

It's seems there is a very strange behavior. Files were loaded from a Playlist in the Now Playing. For files where the Now Playing shows this correct Playlist in the files Path it shows no tags, however for files where it shows the incorrect Playlist in the Path it does show the tags. (on last reload it shows a video Playlist for the music files in the Now Playing). |

A possible problem is that MMW client shows Paths to the files on a Playlist that was last send to another client. In other words: 1) MMW client plays Playlist1 from MMW server 2) Close MMW client 3) Start other client, play Playlist2 4) Stop other client 5) Start MMW client and Paths now show Playlist2 instead of Playlist 1 |

Fixed in build 1663. The behaviour was random, because most of the time nearly after MM start the servers have not been announced yet to get needed info. In build 1663 if the server is not found immediatelly after MM start, it waits 5 seconds and then the Now Playing is updated. Note that I also covered the situation when the server is no longer running. In that case I store at least base info (Summary + Duration) to the mediamonkey.m3u8 so that at least partial info is shown in NP. |

1) MediaMonkey now loads tags for UPnP Files on restart, but... 2) It seems that some user interaction like clicking in Now Playing is required to show the tags. 3) In Art with Details view all files get grouped as one (as Now Playing is initially loaded with no tags). Once tags are loaded this is still the case. |
