Version: 2.2.2 (using KDE 4.4.0) Compiler: gcc (GCC) 4.3.3 -- cmake version 2.6-patch 2 -- QMake version 2.01a Using Qt version 4.6.1 (kde-qt) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled From Sources I created a playlist using the "Save current playlist" button. This created a playlist in "Saved Playlists". Having a playlist with 20 items, if I want to move any item to a different position this result in a duplication of the same item. When I try to removed the duplicated items, Amarok removes other unselected items. A second Bugs seems to appear. When having more the one playlists if I select an item of a play list and I use the popup menu to remove the item, the label "Remove from xxx" xxx does not change according to the playlist. Amarok compiled from sources in a Slackware 13.0 distro.
Please only report one item per bug report. I guess you are moving tracks in the Saved Playlist view, right? FWIW, I can't reproduce the first part of your report here on Amarok 2.3-git so it is most likely already fixed, but the second part is confusing, since it doesn't actually remove an item but changes the name of the one I tried to remove when I try on a xspf playlist, and removes nothing when I try in a m3u playlist.

Some clarifications for the second bug: I have three playslists (A, B and C). If if right-click on an item of playlist C the pop-up menu says: "Remove X song from C". Then if I go to playlist A and I right-click on any item of playlist A the pop-up menu says "Remove X song from C". So here instead of "C" it must say "A". Hope is clear.
Second part of this bug report has been fixed already. The first one is about dragging a track in a playlist onto the same playlist. This indeed duplicates the track. There is nothing wrong with having the same track in a playlist twice, just a bit uncommon. In any case I won't prevent it. When a track is dropped onto the same playlist though there should be an exception, since that is obviously a move. I've lacked the time to look for a good technical solution before but will spend some effort on it tonight.
Seems like there are actually 3 issues in your report 1) See title of this report -> working on it. 2) removals fail -> investigating, need confirmation (in a new bug) 3) playlist name on remove action not updated -> fixed Myriam: investigating your issue, it looks like it's just the view not updating correctly.
Changing target.
Just an observation for those developers: The main playlist actually differentiates between remote and local drag operations. See: void Playlist::PrettyListView::dropEvent() and once can observe that if the event->source() is the same as the object itself, a move operation is performed instead of an insert. I'm guessing the same code could possibly be re-used. However, there are two other bugs that might be considered: Bug 170689, and Bug 251265. I have tried to write a patch myself, but didn't succeed with the desired result but I thought I'd share the direction of my attempts.
Is this still valid with Amarok 2.4.3 or current git?
Closing for lack of feedback. Feel free to reopen if you can reproduce this with the latest stable or git build.
