Summary0002606: Track metadata disappears from view on playback
DescriptionThere's a rather strange bug in which a user has metadata for tracks, but when those specific tracks begin playing, the metadata temporarily disappears from view (even though it's still in the db).

Full report at (Ignore the posts from PaulMT--that's a different issue): http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11474

Database referred to in the bug is stored to the ftp server.

According to what I've seen it's caused by the known behaviour of My Computer node (i.e. when MM can infer some fields from filename and these fields aren't present in tag). I think it's covered in another issue here, we can try to figure out some way how to improve this.

Can you explain how this is related to any of the following issues? All the existing bugs are related to changes associated with Re-scanning tracks or Viewing them in the My Computer node). This bug describes a situation in which just _playing_ the tracks causes them to change!

0002165 My Computer node infers metadata for tracks that are already in the DB
0002364 My Computer node infers metadata even if 'infer properties' is disabled
0001327 Properties of tracks in the db are inferred incorrectly on rescan
0001412 Changes to metadata capitalization aren't recognized on rescan
0001502 Metadata deletions aren't recognized on rescan

I suppose it's causes by a discrepancy between tags and data in DB, in case a rescan can't resolve the issue, the user can send me a track that causes the trouble (so that I can compare it with the DB).

Cannot repro and have not seen any similar reports. Changing priority to low.

This can be observed in MM 4.1 as follows:

1 Scan a directory to the library
2 Edit Track 2&3 from that directory using MP3Tag (change rating in 2 and composer in 3)
3 In MM, refresh the directory within the My Computer node
--> track edits display
4 Play Now, beginning with Track 1
--> Metadata modifications made in step 2 disappear from the view.
