Bug Reports / Re: 'Preserve folders' sync option only preserving 2 parent folders
« on: May 19, 2019, 10:10:28 PM »Here's some observations of this setting with v3.3.7075.
I never tried this setting, and after testing it with various source configurations I must say it leaves a lot to be desired.
The way it currently works is it compares all source track paths on each drive and preserves a path that starts with a unique string for those tracks. So if you sync just one track, it only preserves the last folder. And if the path of source tracks are starting with the same string (D:\Music\Pop), that part gets ignored and only unique path structure (A\Adele\19\) and filename get preserved.
The problem is because the comparison is done per drive the final folder structure in target device can be completely messed up if tracks are sourced from multiple drives with various folder structure. So you end up having "Pop" folder, "D" folder, "Oasis" folder on the same folder level and what's worse is it can be completely different next time depending on which songs are selected and what they have in common in their path.
Another issue is it's impossible to use functions (including regex) for path since all backslashes get stripped from the code. What this means is that there's no way to customize preserved folder structure using template option and you must use the current preserve option.
Maybe this setting can be more useful if it applies the same path rule for all drives. And not just one time, continuously in order to maintain a consistent folder structure on the device. To achieve that, optionally let users choose which folder level the path should start from.
Does this affect that actual filenames, or just the preview? ( https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=23641.msg150572#msg150572 )

Since upgrading to On V3.2.6827, I have not seen this problem with all the various settings I've used.
So I assume it is fixed. Thanks!

Portable Devices / Re: All playlists synchronized with my device are empty 0byte files
« on: October 07, 2018, 10:51:55 AM »The playlists show up in explorer as 0byte files, and they aren't read by Google Play Music, WinAmp, RocketPlayer, etc. I believe that they're actually 0 byte files.
I have the same problem - on device Creative ZEN, MB V3.2.6827.
Playlists synced by MB are on the right and all show as zero length (here in Beyond Compare, but also in Explorer), whereas the same playlists synced by another program on the left show as their real sizes.
The playlists do play on the device, are readable in another Windows music program, and do show content in Explorer:
but a copy to hard drive mode by Explorer (and all other programs I've tried, e.g. Beyond Compare) shows empty:
The workaround of using a different playlist format isn't available on this device.

Then you're misrepresenting me. An average of 4 bug reports a year is not a 'torrent' of posts.

You must be mistaking me for another user. My bug reports have averaged around 4 per year over the approx. 6 years I've been here.
