Autoplaylist not updated dynamically
Posted: Mon Jul 06, 2026 11:23 pm
I have several autoplaylists that are based on other autoplaylists. I have found that in MMW 2027 (build 3514 in portable mode) some of these autoplaylists are not updated after relevant tracks are played unless a restart of MMW is performed. The problem is easy to replicate.
Create an autoplaylist ("Favorites - Not Heard Recently" ) where
However if you create an autoplaylist ("Test") where
If a track is played from either playlist the "Favorites - Not Heard Recently" autoplaylist is updated dynamically as expected, however the playlist "Test" is not. This results in playlists that are different when they should be the same.
A manual refresh (ctrl-F5) does not update the playlist "Test" either, it simply reorders the now incorrect list. To correct the mismatch, MMW needs to be restarted.
This is different behaviour from MM2024.
Create an autoplaylist ("Favorites - Not Heard Recently" ) where
- Search - Entire Library
- Match - All
- Rating >= 4 Stars
- Limit To 120 minutes
- Selected by - Played (least recent)
- Sort by - Random
However if you create an autoplaylist ("Test") where
- Search - Entire Library
- Match - Any/All
- Playlist is "Favorites - Not Heard Recently"
- Limit To (not selected)
- Sort by - Random
