| Summary | 0001814: MM settings don't persist | ||||
| Description | In a previous version, we had changed the way MM saves configuration settings so that the settings are saved only when MM is closed in order to eliminate the delay that occured everytime a configuration change was made. It turns out that this causes config settings to sometimes not be saved, a problem worse than the original issue. I suggest we revert to the previous behaviour. | ||||

Reported on numerous occasions with 2.4. Raising to 'immediate'. |

Fixed in build 851. - This is fixed by properly reacting to Windows shutdown message, now settings are saved in this case. |
|
|
Tested in 851 and this doesn't seem to work. Tested as follows: 1) Changed configuration setting (Blue Monkey skin --> Aqua) 2) Played a track in MM 3) Closed PC (while MM was playing) 4) Restarted PC and ran MM -->It started in Blue Monkey i.e. the config setting didn't save. |

Techninal details: It seems to be caused by the fact that if Windows terminate while apps are running, non-standard routines are called. I fixed it (or thought I fixed it) by adding SaveBeforeTerminate() in MP3Datab.pas that's called when WM_ENDSESSION message comes. However, for some reason it doesn't work. Assigning to Petr for review. |
