GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 635922
Playing track from 'Unheard' playlist immediately removes the track
Last modified: 2010-11-27 23:03:14 UTC
When a user goes to the 'Unheard' playlist (from the sidebar) and plays a track, it immediately disappears from that track list! I think this is a little confusing because the track that the user just double-clicked is playing but it is not visible in the track list anymore. While I understand that once the track starts playing, it does not belong in the 'Unheard' playlist and that is why it gets removed, perhaps a better way of achieving a similar result is to make the track name grey colored and only remove it from the playlist completely when the user switches to another playlist.
I'm guessing that you have Gapless Playback turned on. If so, disabling it in Edit > Preferences should be a workaround for this problem. The root of the problem is that the play count is increased when a song begins and when it ends when gapless is turned on, which is reported as bug 621222. I'm marking this as a duplicate, but if turning gapless off doesn't fix the problem, feel free to re-open this report. Thanks! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 621222 ***
Turning off gapless playback fixed it! Thank you.
