The Play Now function does not work properly (#21727)

[Dynamic990]

Hi everyone,

while testing the new MMA Build 1268, I noticed a problem with the Play Now function.

When using the Play Now function at the end of the playback queue, the track is played correctly, but the playback screen still shows the previous track.

To replicate this please do the following:

• Play Now preserves playback queue is switched on

• For example, there are 3 tracks in the playback queue. (1st track_A, 2nd track_B and last track_C)

• The last track in the queue (Track_C) is currently playing.

• Navigate to an album and select a single track (Track_D) by pressing and holding.

• Press the Play Now button at the top of the screen.

• Now the audio from Track_D is played back, but Track_C is displayed again on the playback screen.

I have made a screen recording of this. However, as it contains audio, I cannot post the link here. Instead, I have provided the link to the recording in support ticket #13512.

The log ID is: 85BSBKVNFQ

Best regards
Christian

I was listening to shuffled tracks and it was playing "Run through the Jungle" by CCR, and the next track in the cue was "The Crunge" by Led Zeppelin.

I decided to insert the rest of the tracks from "Cosmo's Factory" as the next to play tracks. However once "Run through the Jungle" finished whilst it said it was playing"Up around the bend" instead it was the audio from "The Crunge".

This has been happening since the new audio engine was activated. I am however glad of this new audio engine as some of the tracks on my phone that previously didn't play now do!

Thanks! I'm able to replicate the first case:

stonefree, do you have any other hints about how to replicate the second case?

Hi rusty,

I have the same issues that stonefree described above.

Unfortunately, I have not yet found a reliable way to replicate this, but it seems most likely to occur when the Exo Playback Engine is enabled. However, I was able to generate a debug log shortly after the problem occurred again.

The Log-ID is: 6A4K911223

Perhaps that will help.

I will continue to try to find a way to replicate the error and then post it here.

Best regards

Thanks! This should be resolved in build 1271--we'll hopefully post it to the beta channel soon.
