I sync, play a song once on my iPhone4, then sync again and the Played # counter is not incremeting by one. Example, Played # before: 2421, after: 2438.

Do you say that play counter is incrementing by 17 or so after every sync?
It is incremented where, on the iPhone or in MediaMonkey?
Did you check
Device -> Options -> Auto Sync -> [x] Auto-Sync files from the device to the PC
checkbox or not?

The Played # field is incrementing in MM, I do not have Auto-Sync files checked, and it is not always by 17.

If you have the '[ ] Auto-Sync files from the device to the PC' checkbox unchecked then I don't see a reason for increasing Played# value in MM. Do you use some scripts/addons that could cause this? Could you please generate debug log using latest build (1440) so that we could see more.

Yes, this is intended, bi-di sync option is for files syncing, ratings and playcounts are done independently (as in case of the iPod plug-in).

Yes, sorry, you are right.

So the issue is that after changing playcounts on the iPhone the Played# doesn't grow accordingly in MM?

Well, it's working okay for me. Just tested it to be sure by playing a track once after syncing and then when I plugged the phone back into USB, I watched the playcount of the track go from 5 -> 6.

Ok, it also works fine for me, I guess that TekGamer should generate debug log using latest build (1440) so that we could see more.

Ludek,

Here is a list of the extensions (scripts) I have installed:

Add/Remove Playstat (Script) 1.2.4 (AddRemovePlaystat.1.2.4.mmip)
MM Codec pack Trial (Misc) 2.0.0.14 (MM_Codec_Pack_Trial_2.0.0.14.mmip)
PlayHistory & Stats (Script) 4.01 (PlayHistory.4.0.1.mmip)
Lyricator (Script) 1.1.1.31 (lyricator_1.1.1.31.mmip)
RegExpReplace (Script) 4.1 (RegExpReplace-4.1.mmip)
CaseModify (Script) 1.4.2 (CaseModify1.4.2.mmip)

I installed MediaMonkey_4.0.0.1440_Debug.exe, how do I generate a debug log?

Also, after installing 4.0.0.1440, and syncing with [ ] Auto-Sync files from the device to the PC' checkbox UNCHECKED, it is now DOUBLING the playcount every time!

See item 4b here: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... ?f=6&t=341

And also tell us which iPhone model do you have.

I have an iPhone 4

Here is the link to the log http://www.mediafire.com/?1yvba9inn5my3y5. I played two songs on my iPhone, then synced. As you can see in the log it is still updating the file tags even though I have "[ ] Auto-Sync files from the device to the PC" checkbox UNCHECKED, it is now DOUBLING the playcount every time!

Here are the two songs I played on my iPhone 4 then synced. You can see in the log where it is updating the file tags:

line 00005879 -> Deadmau5 - Raise Your Weapon.mp3
line 00005856 -> Calvin Harris - I'm Not Alone [Deadmau5 Remix].mp3

I can't find any problem, it works fine here for everyone who tested. Could you try to:

1. Make sure that you don't have iTunes running simultaneously?
2. Reinstall MM, preferably to a clean folder, so that we rule out some misconfiguration.
3. Try to generate one more log (the one you created is ok, I just wonder whether another log will show the very same steps).
4. Did it work correctly for you in previous builds?

Tekgamer,

When you do step 2 (clean install), I would suggest that you:
a) uninstall MM4 from your machine, and rename the C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey directory to e.g. ...\MediaMonkey_old
b) install the latest build in Portable mode

I already had MM installed in Portable mode. I renamed %APPDATA%\MediaMonkey to %APPDATA%\MediaMonkey, which may have been left over from an old local install. Then I renamed the directory I had MM installed into from E:\Music\Player to E:\Music\Player.bak. I then installed a fresh copy of MediaMonkey_4.0.0.1440_Debug.exe into E:\Music\Player in Portable mode, started it up and put in my license information. I then copied by DB back to where it should be from E:\Music\Player.bak\Portable\MM.DB to E:\Music\Player\Portable\MM.DB. I did an initial sync of my iPhone4 (keeping '[ ] Auto-Sync files from the device to the PC' checkbox unchecked), disconneted it, played one song, then synced again, and now the Played # is only incrementing by 1 as it should.

Thanks Everyone!
