Hi, I have checked your logs.
In all cases, the re-downloaded tracks were auto-converted tracks.
The auto-converted tracks have an additional hash value. If this value is changed then these tracks are re-downloaded.
The issue is that your original tracks hadn't hash value as though these tracks were not auto-converted on first wifi sync.
Unfortunately, your database is too big and is not included in your debug logs, so I can not exactly compare what was changed.
Didn't you change auto-conversion rules between sync?
Do you have some special rule?
Hopefully you can help me answer those questions. What is a "hash value" and what would cause it to change that would result in a re-download? Also what is an example of a "special rule"?
When I initially download songs to to MMA they are converted from flac to mp3 using constant bit rate, joint stereo, high quality. I have not changed any of these settings since the beginning. The only thing I have done with the songs that are re-downloading is play them in MMA.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, the re-downloading seems to happen with some songs that I play in MMA, which had been initially downloaded using an earlier version of MMA. One other observation, it doesn't necessarily re-download all such songs. For example, today I played about 40 songs that had been synced from an earlier version but when I synced tonight only about 30 of those songs re-downloaded.
Please let me know what you think. Thanks.
