Thanks for your reply. Well that was going to be my plan too (setting reload to 0 while validating), but, as I woke up this morning, it had happened again during the night, with absolutely no validation running. (and yesterday evening, everything was fine). May be if I've 15min to waste today I'll check both artists lists to see if there's effectively 19 artists missing in SS, or if everyone's there but SS isn't brilliant at maths. (Surprisingly I won't do the same for the 5 tracks missing, over 13000) As for being resigned, you're probably right. But being a Cartesian, this little issue will tickle me till it ends up by being solved. In the meantime, back to music ! -- Stan Pulsar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stan Pulsar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6669 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31265 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
