Description Edgar Kalkowski 2010-06-05 15:01:03 UTC
Version:           2.3.1-GIT (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

I extended my playlist layout to display the moodbar for every song. However if I add an album of songs to my playlist the same moodbar is displayed for every song (I’m not sure, perhaps it is the moodbar of the first song). If I quit Amarok and restart it without clearing the playlist the moodbars are correctly displayed. If I clear the playlist, close Amarok, restart it and add the same album to the playlist again all tracks have the same moodbar again. This may be related to bug 234827.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Tweak the playlist layout to also show the moodbar.
2. Clear the playlist and close Amarok.
2. Open Amarok with a clear playlist.
3. Add an album with several songs to the playlist

Actual Results:  
The same moodbar is displayed for every song in the playlist.


Expected Results:  
A distinct moodbar is displayed for each song.

I’m using a git snapshot compiled today (2010/06/05) but this bug happened to me since moodbar was integrated.
Comment 1 Edgar Kalkowski 2010-06-11 19:35:41 UTC
I have gathered some additional info: If I drag an album to the playlist from the “recently added albums” widget the moodbars of all the songs in the album are loaded correctly.

If I drag an album from the collection view directly to the playlist or if I just drag it onto the “add to playlist” button that appears in the widget area as soon as I start to drag the moodbars are NOT correctly loaded.
Comment 2 Nikhil Marathe 2010-08-23 19:10:07 UTC
This works correctly for me. Could you try again with latest git.
Comment 3 Edgar Kalkowski 2010-08-23 20:14:33 UTC
Hi, the current Git does not compile for me. Perhaps that is due to me using the most decent KDE 4.5. I'll try again soon and post whether it works.
Comment 4 Myriam Schweingruber 2010-08-23 23:53:02 UTC
Current git compiles fine now, that was only a temporary glitch.
Comment 5 Edgar Kalkowski 2010-08-24 10:47:00 UTC
Hm, sorry. But it does not compile for me. I checked out a few minutes ago and get this error when compiling:

Is there something I can do to fix this?
Comment 6 Myriam Schweingruber 2010-08-24 18:25:32 UTC
Are you sure you have all dependencies and set the environment variables right? It very much looks like you haven't, still compiles flawlessly here, using 2.3.1-git on KDE 4.5, Qt 4.7.0 on Kubuntu 10.04
Comment 7 Myriam Schweingruber 2010-08-24 22:19:19 UTC
Could you please run make -j1 and paste the relevant error line? The above doesn't really show where the failure happens
Comment 8 Edgar Kalkowski 2010-11-16 18:38:06 UTC
Ok, I finally got around to looking into this bug some more. I compiled today’s git version of amarok and tried to reproduce this bug with it. Here is what I found out:

If I turn on the “merged view” of the local collection this bug is still present even in the current git. If however I turn off “merged view” everything works as expected (i.e. if you drag an album from the collection browser to the playlist every song has it’s own moodbar displayed).

In conclusion this bug only exists for the “merged view” of the collection browser.
Comment 9 Myriam Schweingruber 2010-11-16 23:13:43 UTC
Nikhil, could you test in "merged view" please? I don't have any moodbar for the files here right now.
Comment 10 Nikhil Marathe 2010-11-17 04:01:57 UTC
I can reproduce this. more importantly it doesn't matter whether my tracks come from Merged/Unmerged view. The moodbar loading fault happens in either case, but *not to all tracks*. 

The first and last track in an album show the right moodbar, but the other tracks seem to cache the moodbar. Here is what I have observed

1) Play first track = Ok
2) First -> Last track   = Ok
3) Last  -> First track  = Ok
4) First/Last -> any track = Ok
5) Not first/last -> not/first last = Fail (moodbar does not change)
Comment 11 Edgar Kalkowski 2010-11-17 14:01:11 UTC
You seem to have checked this with the moodbar displayed in the progress bar. I on the other hand adjusted my playlist layout to display the moodbar for every song in it (as I liked it very much from amarok 1). In the playlist all tracks have the same moodbar when dragged there from the merged view. But I noticed the thing you described, too.
Comment 12 Nikhil Marathe 2010-11-18 07:56:44 UTC
Edgar, yes I was viewing the toolbar, now I enabled moodbar in the playlist and I can clearly reproduce your bug. My variant of the bug seems to have disappeared or atleast is not on the songs I'm trying now. Will look into this.
Comment 13 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-06-04 11:48:09 UTC
This is an automated message from the triager:

Amarok 2.4.1 has been released on May 8 already. Could you please upgrade and test if you can still reproduce this bug?

Without feedback within a month we will close this bug as resolved.

Thank you for your understanding.
Comment 14 Alexander Potashev 2011-06-04 14:57:57 UTC
I didn't try the "step to reproduce" described above, but you must move your mouse over the track progress slider in order to see the new moodbar.
Comment 15 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-06-04 16:04:08 UTC
Thank you for the fast feedback. I just tested myself with latest Amarok 2.4-git and that seems to be definitely solved, all tracks show individual moodbars in the playlist without having to hover over with the mouse.
Comment 16 Alexander Potashev 2011-06-04 17:04:52 UTC
Should I create another bug report if I need to hover the slider?
Comment 17 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-06-04 18:23:22 UTC
Do you use the git version? If not, it's not necessary to create a new bug, since I can't reproduce either in the latest git version, so this is solved in the next Amarok 2.4.2
Comment 18 Lorenz Röhrl 2011-06-11 15:21:21 UTC
This is still not solved in current git.
On manual trackchange i have to hover the progressbar in order to see the new mood-file.
Comment 19 Lorenz Röhrl 2011-06-11 15:23:30 UTC
Ah, never mind. There is a separate bugrport for my description: #234827

This still happens with Amarok-2.8.0 when I drag anything (artist, album or track) from the collection browser in merged mode.  In non-merged mode, behavior is fine.
