Hi

See attached files for version of beaTunes + my macOS-software.

Since the last update, I experience the following issue:
I make a Matchlist and I hide beaTunes. I play the Matchlist in iTunes.
Later, I bring beaTunes back up to make a new Matchlist. First, it needs to sync with iTunes (freezes for one minute).
When it's synced, the songs in that first Matchlist in beaTunes all have changed.
See attached files for comparison beaTunes vs iTunes (same list, but after sync with iTunes).
The one in iTunes is the correct one. The songs changed only after I brought beaTunes back up to make a new Matchlist.

Thanks
Alexander

    ***EDIT***

    This problem does not occur when I quit beaTunes after creating the Matchlist. It's only when I leave it running in the background and bring it back up some time later.

    Since the last update, I experience the following issue:

    This is from 5.2.23 to 5.2.24?

    That's surprising, since I don't think the synchronization code has been changed between these two versions.

    Can you please try the following:

    • In beaTunes preferences, turn off "Synchronize on window activation"
    • Create a MatchList, switch to Music.app do something, basically reproducing the issue
    • Switch back to beaTunes (it won't sync and won't freeze)
    • Manually sync using File -> Synchronize

    Does the problem still occur?

    Thanks!

    Hi Hendrik

    No, this seems to not reproduce the issue.

    Hey Alexander,

    Does that mean with auto sync turned off, the issue is solved?

    Then that would be my recommendation...
