Thanks for the suggestions, Alex B. Sorry, I was too busy to try them out until this weekend. Restoring the library to a new install of MC on a different PC still produces the same problem with the playlists. So, does this point to a library issue? Somehow my current library is corrupted in just this very specific way? Is there anything I can do about this short of... The other suggestion, which if I understand you corectly, is to start from scratch and rebuild the library to see if this solves the issue. Well, that is a cure that is much worse than the disease. Even if it would fix the issue, wouldn't I lose all my playlists and views etc? I guess I may just have to live with this issue. What makes me think it is a bug and not a corrupt library is that all newly created playlists have this problem too but, aside from this weird thing, they work fine. And, I also, restored a much older library (from when I didn't have this problem) to the new PC and the issue was still there. I haven't tried to reinstall an older version of MC to see if this resolves the issue but, if this works, where does it leave me? I would like be able to use the newer versions of MC. Well, does anybody out there have any other suggestions? I don't want to believe, I have stumped everybody. But, it is weird that no one else has actually reported that they have this exact same problem. So maybe I will just have to let it go after this last try. Thanks anyway, guys.
