i have one MMW on PC and for the moment 1 MMA on my phone.

recently i came up with the idea to dedicate an old phone as more or less a remote control for music at home. Therefore habving MMA on a phone

In the same time i'd like to keep another MMA for my "mobile music".

Is this config overall supported ? Is MMW desisgned to sync with "more than 1 Device" ? I imagine this may not be that easy to memorize and get consistency of playcounts across multiple devices...

Has anyone tested this ?

Pretty much on daily base i sync a Android phone and a Android tablet daily without any issues.

Yes, each device gets their own Device Profile which has the settings for Sync as well as the content selection for the Sync per device. This means you can Sync with any number of devices.

I also sync with several devices - probably once a week. This includes Android phone, Android tablets, a USB stick and Garmin GPS. I typically "drive" my syncs from Playlists. I can't say no issues, but some of the issues I have had have been related to poor (cheap) micro SD cards!

Also, sometimes the sync can appear to freeze. To overcome this I open Windows Explorer, click on the device / SD card and then close Windows Explorer. This seems to "free" the problem.

You can see better that things are progressing if you run the Debug version of either MMW4 or MMW5.

Also, I would start small and build up! Perhaps sync one or two Playlists and check everything is as it should be then when it is proven scale up to more. I regularly sync ~950 playlist to the phone and newer tablet.

Finally, give MMA and chance to "catch up" before repeating a sync. You can check this by running MMA and - for example - viewing the newest Playlist created.
