Search by Track Problem - 19/10/2001 03:12

Loaded 2.0b3 without problems.

I've had a few lockups on the player as reported by others, mainly when playing with Wendy filters. Emplode has been quite stable but I would like to have the option of a flags column so that I can easily see which Wendy flags are set for a particular tune without going to properties.

I have also had the horrible garbled bass on a tune which palyed fine in 1.03. (sounded like a 2KW amp feeding tranny speakers!!!).

The only unreported gripe is that if you have 2 artists with the same trackname ("Under the influence" by both Eminem and Chemical Brothers). When you select search by name and type U-N-D-E-R, you can see "Under the Influence (2)" appear in the display. Pressing OK on this in any of the modes (append,insert,replace) just adds one of the tracks to the playlist.

I would expect it to either add both or present a new dialog to choose which you want(preferred).

It's supposed to add both. I just tried it and it works for me. Is there anything different about what you're doing?

Yes, as Roger said, it should add both. Perhaps one is "Under the Influence" and the other "Under The Influence", or something? That would narrow down where the bug must be...

Quite right peter!

Just looked in emplode and one was "The", the other "the". I guess it should still add both though ??

This new version of emplode is horrible! It makes it so easy to see that a lot of my tags have missing track nos, years, wrong case etc. The old version made this much harder, this must be a bug!

I know what I will be doing this weekend...

find The, replace with the
find On, replace with on

Joking aside, I don't know which I like more, emplode or the new player. Top notch chaps.

Yes, it should. It's a bug.
