Description Armin Straub 2011-02-06 23:43:34 UTC

Version:           2.4-GIT (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

If "Stop playing after this track" is selected, then the scores are updated incorrectly.

This happens because in this case, both slotAboutToFinish() and (shortly after) slotFinished() are called in EngineController.  Each of them calls m_currentTrack->finishedPlaying causing the score to get updated twice (which shouldn't happen because of the incremental way the score is computed).  Moreover, the second time around the playedFraction is incorrectly determined to be zero which causes the overall decrease in score.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Play a song, select "Stop playing after this track", and wait until it is completely played (or skip to the end).  Let's assume the track has a playcount of 9 and a score of 96.

Actual Results:  
The song now has a score of 87.
(In the first step it gets a score of (9*96+100)/10 = 96 as it should, but then this is decreased to (10*96+0)/11 = 87.)

Expected Results:  
The song should get a score of (9*96+100)/10 = 96.4.

Comment 3 Armin Straub 2011-02-09 15:45:03 UTC

Many thanks for the quick attention!

I haven't had time to actually test the proposed fix, but it seems to me that it has a troublesome side effect: in case, a song is manually stopped by the user (so that slotAboutToFinish isn't called) the score is not going to be updated at all.  Or am I missing something?

When you stop track manually, Amarok calls stop() method which updates track statistics.
