You are right, that is exactly what happened. I never paid attention to the heading above my queue. Thank you so much!

You probably accidentally switched from Playing Tracks to Upcoming Tracks. You should be able to switch back using the menu at the top left of the list.

Questions / Playing queue misbehaving

« on: August 30, 2020, 06:53:45 AM »

Recently, my playing queue has started dynamically updating itself in such a way that the track currently playing is always the first track in the queue. I do not like this because I want to be able to see all the previous tracks in the queue, which was how it worked before. I can still access the previous tracks in the queue, but only if I press the 'rewind' button, with which I can access each previous track individually. But by doing so, the previous track starts playing each time and that track becomes number 1 in the queue.

Another problem I am facing is that if I start playing a track from the library itself where all my tracks are listed, or from a playlist with more than 102 tracks, the playing queue only shows the first 101 tracks in that list. Only after playing some track near the end of that 101 track queue does the queue update itself. Again, the updation of the queue still shows only 101 tracks in the queue, with the current track playing becoming number one.

If the good people in this forum don't know the solutions to my problem, it would also be helpful if someone can guide me to a place where I can edit my queue preferences, which I cannot find. Thank you everyone!

Questions / Re: MusicBee automatically changing album art

Yet, MusicBee randomly changes album art of a few albums without me knowing about it.

I am assuming you are making that assertion based on what is displayed in the track info panel and havent actually checked a file in the tag editor.
If you follow what frankz has suggested, that will stop MB downloading and displaying album art from the web if the music file has no existing artwork associated. The artwork associated with a file is set in the Tags(1) preferences, which does not include folder.jpg by default. So if thats the only artwork for the files in question you should include folder.jpg and click the rescan button.

I have, on multiple occasions replaced the artwork through a different tag editor. I am unaware of all these different artwork storage options, and have always embedded artwork in the file itself. There are only 5-6 tracks at most in my library with no artwork since those are personal recordings. Artwork has never been added to them. It is unfortunate that I cannot possibly show you how the problem occurs.

The most baffling aspect of this problem is that once a track from a compilation album had it's artwork replaced to the original album's artwork. Even though the tags were (to my knowledge) catering to the compilation album.

Edit->Edit Preferences->Tags(1)->Deselect all storage options

Edit->Edit Preferences->Tags(2)->auto-tagging->deselect auto-retrieve

Thank you. I have done what you've suggested. I won't really know if it made a difference, but hopefully I wouldn't see different artwork again.

Questions / MusicBee automatically changing album art

« on: November 27, 2018, 04:02:38 PM »

I am very particular about the album art on my music, which is why I manually enter all album art on each track. Yet, MusicBee randomly changes album art of a few albums without me knowing about it. I only get to know about this change once I play the track and actually view the cover art.

I am perfectly satisfied with the cover art I add myself, I do not need or want MusicBee to meddle with it. Is there any setting I can disable, which I'm not able to find? Any help will be appreciated.
