[SOLVED] USB sync - Only part of playlist is showing/transferring

Post by MMhow2 »

Last night I installed the current download for MMW and MMA.

The issue I am running into is there are playlists that show/have x on MMW and only show partial on MMA. An example is one playlist on MMW has 111 songs in it and it plays correctly. Sync via USB and the playlist only has 20 songs in it.

Read through some of the threads in this part of the forum that had a similar title to what I am experiencing, but couldn't find one that was the same.

Windows 10 to Galaxy 20+

Hi,
After you sync with USB it is always wise to d an WiFi Sync as due its nature and internal transfer protocols playlist are much netter handled and not limited to Android limitations.

For example only WiFi Sync support nested playlist and playlist folders.

So far, so good. It seems to be working now. I am surprised the USB sync is so unreliable.
I am an innocent victim that knows nothing about MediaMonkey. Help me on my path of entertainment joy. :(

Do not be, MTP Protocol that is exclusively used for file transfer over USB to devices is known as non reliable even for plain file copy in explorer, because it goes thru driver layer and not direct access to storage (eg. you will notice that devices do not have drive letters and that in most cases Drag and drop do not work).
