Summary0001870: iPod playlists fail to update when tracks already exist on the device
DescriptionThis one is a bit hard to describe so I'll give the usecase:

User synchs Playlist A and Playlist B to iPod. A contains songs W & X, and B contains songs Y & Z.
User then modifies Playlist A in MediaMonkey to contain W, Y & Y.
User resynchs iPod.
--> Song Y isn't added to Playlist A

It seems that the Playlist is correctly synched if a _new_track_that_isn't_elsewhere_on_the_device is added to the playlist. If tracks that exist elsewhere are added then the playlist, then the playlist doesn't update.

Note: I didn't find a similar problem with deletion, but it wouldn't surprise me if there is a problem that I failed to find.
TagsNo tags attached.

I think I tried everything as described and also some other options and don't see any problem. Are the steps exactly like this, or is anything else necessary?

After further study, it's become apparent that this issue is cause by the fact that multiple masks were used to synch data to the device. Re-assigning to rusty as 'urgent' to study further.
