#Beatunes play count sync update

This time I didn't play any music until the re-sync was finished. So I closed the app again and repeated the process of deleting and re-syncing. That must have been what happened the first time. I discovered that, when it was finished syncing, the tracks that I had just listened to now had overinflated play counts. Success! So I decided to play some music while it worked. i saw in a status note at the bottom of the app that it was working on it. I re-started MusicBee, I un-selected and re-selected the option to sync play counts. So I backed up to my AppData/Local folder, and found /MusicBee/LastFmPla圜ountCache.dat and deleted the file. I found a MusicBee folder there, but I did not find the LastFmPla圜ountCache.dat file in it. But %AppData% alone sent me to my AppData/Roaming folder. This enables you to use both music players in tandem and still maintain common ratings and play counts.

The file path %AppData%/Local/MusicBee/ couldn't be found. If you use both iTunes and Windows Media Player to manage and play your music collection on one computer, then using a tool called Orzeszek Ratings you can sync the ratings and play counts between the two applications. This is the exact problem I had, and the solution above did set me on the right path, with a couple tweaks.

I recognize that this is a long shot, but anyone have any idea why this might be happening? 51 extra plays seems like a very odd thing indeed. Just before making this post, I even tried playing this track to see if I could get the count to increment, and it does.Īfter that most recent play, my 'real' last.fm play count is now 7, but musicbee now thinks it is 58.

If I manually edit the play count in Musicbee and set it to 6, and then close/reopen, the value is updated to 57 again (which I guess is at least consistent with the checkbox / indicative that last.fm sync is to blame.) (I even pulled my entire play history from last.fm via the api and double-checked manually - 6 scrobbles.)

Last.fm reports my play count for this track as 6.Įvery other track in my library (including all the other tracks on this same album) are correct and update as expected. Last.fm plugin is enabled, I have enabled the 'Synchronize Play Count' option.īy all appearances, this works! However, one track (and only one track) is way off.įor some reason, the play count for this track (and only this track) is synced to be 57.
