| Summary | 0003210: Audio files are deleted when they shouldn't be deleted | ||||
| Description | If delete files that aren't on the auto-synch list is enabled then MM will delete all tracks From the first directory that is specified in the destination, rather than all 'hard' directories. i.e. if user synchs to /Audio/Music/<Artist>/<Artist>-<Title> then tracks are deleted from /Audio (including /Audio/Podcasts/ and /Audio/Audiobooks/ . What should happen is that only the tracks that aren't in the auto synch list in /Audio/Music should be deleted. | ||||

Well, but it has always been this way (i.e. the whole device is scanned for audio tracks to be removed). If user has folders that shouldn't be cleared, there is a text field for entering a list of folders to be ignored. I was also thinking about the suggested change, but I'm afraid that it would cause more bad than good. E.g. after changing the mask, different set of files would be deleted. And also not all files are necessarily synched to just this folder, some coudl be configured to by synched to other folders (see Advanced settings). So, I'd rather leave it as is. |

To clarify: My intent is that MM should only delete files from the destination directories that are 'hard coded' in _any_ portion of the sync profile (i.e. destinations set via 'Advanced'). As far as the issue that different files would be deleted depending on changes to the mask: i think that this would be expected. |

Fixed in build 1301 together with 0002615. i.e. If device is configured as Sync Tracks to: [\Music\Audio\<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Title>] then MM looks up only \Music\Audio\ folder and subfolders as was originally suggested. |
