if I make selections in the albumartist node, the tracks are copied to phone, but the selections are not persisted in the rhs list at AutoSync(->Device)
=> I see, under the Album Artists node the partly checked [-] indicator is not appearing when an album is selected under particular album artist, workaround is to expand the album artist node, this will be fixed in 2227
I am seeing that ....
but that is just part of it .... I make the sync selection in the AlbumArtist ... I apply, and then sync ... the files are synced ok ... but when I leave, and then return to D&S node, there is no part tick for the AlbumArtist node,
and there is no check against the "selected" albumartists either ...
nor further down at their album album level

the reverse situation with the Location node ... ie. my sync requests are persisted, but the tracks not copied
=> I cannot repliacate this, if you hover over the folder node like this:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/3baytx0pylmsj ... 0.png?dl=0
I can see the 12 files and all the 12 files are copied upon clicking [Apply] and [Sync now], maybe you did not press [Apply] before [Sync now] ?
Yes I am certain that I applied ... I know this because the request is persisted in the rhs tree ... but the files are not copied to my phone, as evidenced by Explorer and also your device Music node on the front tab

the issue where the lhs tree can (falsely) appear empty is still there, as described earlier
=> This is not reproducible for me, do you have some exact steps starting with clean profile in the first step?
Or maybe sharing your MM5.DB and indicating the device profile could help me to replicate the issue.
I have PM'd you a debug log of this happening.
Steps:
- D&S>Device AutoSync-> tab with some applied selections
- Set Hide Unselected Items on
- Navigate to outside D&S node ... in my case was a custom node in Album Grid view
- get dbox saying "You Have change Settings for <<phone>. Apply?" .... I have made no changes other than hiding selected, but reply Yes anyway
- return to D&S>Device ==> Hide Selected is still toggled on, and rhs is empty ... ?
- toggle off Hide Unselected ==> nodes still all look empty
- open the nodes, and I can see (expected) selections ... close the node, and it now appears partially checked

still can't open genre node beyond the genre list ... ie. to AlbumArtist>Album levels
=> Yes, this has always worked like this, also in MM4. I am not sure whether additional levels are really needed. Maybe for 5.1.
Thanks, 5.1 is Ok. .... I would never sync a whole genre .... but would often like to a sync a bunch of albums for a specific genre
The way that it is useless with a large library ..... maybe Ok if you are a track focused person, who has selected a limited random selection from a genre ... but as it is, it not useful for an album-focused listener .... I'll ckeck mantis for the entry with promised 5.1 version tag

lhs tree still not sorted as per the main Media Tree ... ie. ignores custom tree sort sequence
=> I see, another (really minor) long-standing issue (has always been in MM4 too).
I have Entire library node enabled in the main Media Tree, but is not listed on the lhs of AutoSync(->Device)
I can confirm (also long-standing, in MM4 too), probably 5.1 item
OK ... without Entire Library my workaround is to make a Entire Library custom collection
If they are long standing requests, it is a pity that you didn't tidy them up with MM5

when MM5 deletes de-selected content, it does not housekeep by deleting empty folders ===> is hard to easily test what has|hasn't been deleted, and the user is left with a mess to manage manually
=> I guess that this should work, going to verify and look into it.
thanks ....
this one would be very good .... MM5 sync is making an annoying messy graveyard in my phone.
