• 'TEST Hip Hop' (403 files, 3.3 GB)
• 'TEST House' (733 files, 8.1 GB)

1. I selected them both to sync, and the total space required to sync was incorrectly calculated as 8.1 GB.
2. I removed the common tracks from 'TEST Hip Hop', and then the total space required to sync both playlists was correctly calculated at around 11.3 GB.
3. I then manually add the common tracks back into 'TEST Hip Hop', and the total space required to sync both playlists was still correctly calculated at 11.3 GB.

1. The flash drive shows up twice - once as a generic USB flash drive, and also as an 'iPod Shuffle'.
   I've updated the corresponding ticket (#1896).
2. When selecting playlists, the amount of space required by the playlists is not updated properly.
   This is still a problem. Some playlists consistently fail to correctly update the required space on the flash drive. It is the same playlist(s) each time but I have not been able to determine what is the common factor in those playlists that cause this issue. The playlists exhibit different behaviour depending on which other playlists are selected:
   • Selecting the affected playlist by itself correctly updates the required space on the flash drive. However, if you add other playlists, the required space on the flash drive is not updated correctly.
   • Selecting other (unaffected) playlists correctly updates the required space on the flash drive. However, if you then select an affected playlist, the required space is either incorrectly updated, or not updated at all.
   If I hover my mouse pointer over the playlist(s), the size of the playlist (in MB or GB) is correctly shown in the tooltip, so I don't understand why the value in the tooltip is not being applied to the free space calculation.
   This problem occurs with both static playlists and auto playlists.
3. Selecting a parent playlist does not sync its child playlists.
   Fixed! ✔
4. When a sync is complete, the amount of space used is not correctly calculated.
   The amount of used space/free space after a sync is shown correctly until you close MediaMonkey.
   If you restart MediaMonkey, the used space is incorrectly split between 'Audio' and 'Other', with 'Other' being the correct amount of space used by MediaMonkey.
   The space on the device is then correctly calculated and updated after 75 secs (for a 20GB collection).
5. (NEW!) Tracks that contain a percent ('%') in the file name generate an error.
   For example, 'Duke Dumont - Need U (100%).mp3'. The error does not seem to prevent the affected files from being copied to the device though.
   See:
   

1. The flash drive shows up twice - once as a generic USB flash drive, and also as an 'iPod Shuffle'. Is this intentional?
2. When selecting playlists, the amount of space required by the playlists is not updated. This makes it impossible to see if I am trying to sync more data than I have space for. (I have selected 'Scan as soon as the device is selected').
   If the device comes close to running out of free space during a sync, I get the following error for all subsequent sync actions (including delete):
   "Application throw an exception TDeviceCalculator.calcFinish:freeSpace < 0 !!!
   (D:\Delphi\MediaMonkeyClean\HTML5Monkey\Device.pas, line 13732)
   
   Would you like to restart MediaMonkey in Safe mode?"
   
   
   In this case, when I checked the amount of free space, I still had around 15% (5GB) free space still available.
3. If I select a parent playlist that has child playlists, this appears to select all child playlists but no files will sync from those child playlists. Instead, I must select all playlists individually under the parent playlist to enable file sync.
   This is a little inconvenient, but not a dealbreaker. However, it is very misleading to the user. When selecting the parent playlist, it should either:
   • not select any child playlists, so the user must select them all manually.
     OR
   • select all child playlists (as it does now) and sync all selected playlists.
4. When the first sync is complete, the amount of space used is not correctly calculated. Some of it is marked as 'Audio', and the rest is marked as 'Other':
   • The section marked as 'Other' is the correctly calculated used space.
   • The section marked as 'Audio' appears to serve no purpose, and incorrectly suggests more space is being used than in reality.
   • (Reconnecting the flash drive correctly calculates all the used space being taken up as 'Audio', and 'Other' is not displayed until the next sync).
