Data synced from iPod Classic to MM4
Posted: Sat Mar 19, 2022 8:55 am
Like a few other people I had an error (now fixed) of not being able to sync data from my MM on PC to my old iPod Classic. That now works fine.
But. (And I'm sure I didn't have the next problem before...)
When I sync back from my iPod to MM, MM updates play count, last played date and rating in the MM database. Good.
But I can't then see those files in Magic Nodes or the Play History add ons. I think that's because both those utilities use PlayHistory data which is not updated when I sync back. (I'm sure it used to.) What happens if I then play a track that I've successful synced back and then try to remove a play stat is that it sees the "new" record, but there's no record for when I listened on my iPod.
Is there any way of resolving this? Short of "replaying" everything again directly in MM.
I'm sure this used to work before the update to the iPod.dll.
