I have noticed a display issue in the "Library" sections regarding the properties of a small, indeterminate number of music tracks in the "Music Library."
The issue affecting these tracks is that certain elements do not display correctly within the library window; however, everything displays correctly in the Track Tool, Tag Editor, and playlist player.
The problem is that these tracks are no longer being selected via the Playlist Generator categories.
This affects the following properties: "Rating," "Tags," "Language," "Last played," "Gender," "Comment," "File type", "Dayparting," "Start date," and "End date." The data for these properties either does not match or fails to display (appearing blank).
I have tried running "Analyze and optimize database" and "Rebuild tag cache," as well as closing and reopening RadioBOSS, but the display in the "Library" window remains incorrect.
Another issue: when one of the tracks affected by this display problem is played in the playlist player, the playback position marker does not align with the waveform. There is a discrepancy of about 10 seconds; the marker is 10 seconds ahead. Furthermore, the "Mix," "End," and "Outro" markers do not appear on the waveform or are incorrectly positioned.
And when the track reaches the end, the waveform disappears completely - there is nothing left. Yet, playback continues.
In the example, the end of the waveform can be seen dipping and flattening out. After a drastic fix for the problem (which I explain below), the end of the waveform returns to normal: it is cut off.
I noticed this issue by looking at the play counts: some tracks had very low numbers (between 1 and 4 plays, compared to 80) relative to other music tracks with equivalent properties (tags).
For now, I am resolving the issue by deleting the track from the "Library" and re-importing it. After importing, all properties appear automatically and correctly within the same "Library."
I am using RadioBOSS version 7.2.5.0.
I believe the problem predates this latest version. Out of my 8,000 music tracks distributed across various "Libraries," I have noted that around thirty tracks are affected by this type of issue.
