Hi

Both PCs now updated to 2424 and # Column enabled in both.

Hi,
May I also suggest that you enable # column in Playing -> List view.

Thanks for your reply

In the first pic, the display is static, Foreigner, but the audio being heard is Kate Bush (3rd in the playing list)

While I switch to MS Word, Kate Bush continues to play

When I switch back to MM5 (second pic, a few seconds later), Foreigner and the subsequent track (which have previously completed playing) have disappeared while Kate Bush is still playing and has moved up to the correct, i.e. top, playing position with the subequent tracks following.

I shall install build 2424, as you advise

Keith

Please try with build 2424.

I also don't follow as in both screenshots the Player and Playing seem to match.

Hi

I've encountered the event again and manged to get screencaps to illustrate it.

I'd left MM5 playing while I had a shower.

When I returned, the screen was blank (screensaver) and Kate Bush - Wuthering Heights was playing but when I released the screensaver, Foreigner - Waiting For A Girl Like You was heading the "Playing" list in a "stalled" condition.

Image

I pressed Print Screen then loaded MS Word to paste the result - when I returned to MM5, Kate Bush - Wuthering Heights was playing at the head of the "Playing" list! I pressed Print Screen then loaded MS Word to paste that result, too.

Image

My current version of MM5 is 5.0.1.2419

Many Thanks for your help

Since I have been unable to replicate/capture my original experience, I suggest that this query be "rested" and I will "awaken" it only when I have corroborative evidence.

"Branigan" is playing, "Pitney" isn't.

I think the "greyed" filelisting was a result of me placing the cursor over it.

I had set up a playing list and started playing but nothing else. I left MM playing and then, when I returned, I noticed the discrepancy.

I still haven't managed to grab a shot of exactly what I mean but here's a shot of an anomaly - the playing bar does not reflect what's in the playing queue:
