I think the workaround only works if there's a change in the sync list. Just immediately syncing again doesn't fix it.
The problem is only with deletions, tho. If I add another album and then sync, the db gets to where it should be.

Yes, as I said, MMA tells the actual content to MMW on each WiFi sync start, but the album is removed later during sync by MMA.
Therefore the album is removed from the "synced to" on subsequent sync, this is small bug that we overlooked.

Hi Ludek,

I removed another album from the sync list, and then captured a log of it syncing, and then viewing the autoplaylist.

Now the two albums I removed yesterday are not in the autoplaylist, but the album I just removed is still there.

I can open a ticket with the log, if you want.

Hi, it should work fine over WiFi, because MMA tells its content to MMW on each WiFi sync start. So probably you just need to perform one more sync to update the "synced to tablet" ?

As always, I only use wi-fi; I haven't plugged the tablet in for months.
Possibly that wi-fi only connectivity is responsible for this symptom.

Today I upgraded to MMW 1671 and MMA 185. I went into the options of MMA: both the External and Internal storage profiles showed as "Never synced" but the External profile, which was brand new with MMA 182, had actually been sync'd a couple times. There was no problem establishing the sync and using the same profile in MMW -- and, after syncing, the album that was removed from the tablet but still showed in the autoplaylist, was no longer in the autoplaylist.

Hopefully, I edited the options to remove two albums and add one more, and those were deleted and copied over correctly; but the autoplaylist continues to show the recently deleted albums. Only the album that was removed using 182 has been removed from the autoplaylist.

wifi or USB sync?

I have again done a fresh complete reinstall, with MMW 1670 and MMA 182. Synch'd over several large, static playslists and several albums (which were selected under Album Artist). After listening to one of those albums, I de-selected it and sync'd. The album was removed, but it still shows up in the auto-playlist of "synced to tablet".

I removed an video from device in 168 and did a wifi sync and it was removed from a AutoPlaylist containing videos synced to device.

Wouldn't be surprised (but don't know) if this is due to initial sync being done prior to fix.

It was fixed for USB sync in build 1625
For WiFi sync it is implemented on MMW side in build 1625, but remains to add on MMA and MM8 side as noted here:
http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view. ... 534#c34990

Workaround for you is to plug the device via USB until this is fixed.

Bug is marked as fixed, but I'm still seeing when tracks are removed that the status remains "synched."
Initial sync was with 162/1656, removal sync was with 165/1658.

Following up on this bug: My "Synch status, is synched to, Tab" autoplaylist is showing music that used to be synced on but was removed from the synclist, and then from the device by syncing. It looks like you're not clearing the synch-status when the track is removed.

This seems to be working well in build 1624. Thanks, Ludek!

You seem to be true, thank you.
