Using 1281 with a fresh iPod 5G restore I am getting inconsistency with the last played and play count fields in MM. Last played dates show up correct on an initial sync (manual or auto) but after disconnecting and reconnecting the last played shows up as a random date, oddly the date changes on each connection, I've seen ranges for 1930 to 2021. The side affect (I think) is that when this device resyncs the playcount and last played it will add the playcount from the ipod to the MM DB. i.e. I sync a song with 50 plays, disconnect and reconnect ipod and the song now has 100 plays on both iPod and in MM.
In my testing this only seems to happen after the first time the ipod is connected after a song is synched, not everytime the ipod is connected.
Also any song played on the iPod gets a correct last played time, although it is in GMT rather than local time. The doubling of the playcount only seems to happen if the device is disconnected, then reconnected without any plays on the ipod in between and only after the first time a song is synched.
I hope I've explained this clearly enough to reproduce, let me know any additional info you require.
Thanks

Re: 1281 - Last Played & Playcount Incorrect
Tested OK with 1282 but the last played is synching back as GMT/UTC from iPod to MM, is this expected behavior?

I also found reasons of this problem, it will be fixed in the next build.
