Smart Mode playing wrong songs

Post by aybesea »

I'm very new to Guayadeque and loving it so far, but I am quite confused at its behavior in Smart Mode.

I pick a song to start off with, and Guayadeque faithfully creates a playlist that includes other similar music. The confusing bit is that as I watch the playlist proceed, I get to one or more tracks where the song that actually gets played is not the song that is listed on the playlist. Normally I'd think that this is a problem with the album files, but if I simply click on the corresponding playlist entry, the correct song will play. This tells me that the problem is not with the album files. Additionally, once a "wrong" song gets played, it seems like it enters a pattern of playing a bunch of wrong songs... often from the same artist.

Can anyone help me to understand and correct this behavior?

I'm using ver 0.4.6 on Linux Mint 20.0

Thanks

Can you run guayadeque from the console and send me the output of the application to console while the problem is happening ?

Thanks for your help
