Hi all,
Since probably last summer, maybe last spring, I've had trouble with MC (most recent build, always--currently 20.0.57) seemingly not "seeing" some tracks I sync to actual folders on my desktop PC's hard drive (not to an actual Android device, in other words--I know about and have experienced many problems with this myself). It wasn't too bothersome early on, since it would only be 10-20 tracks that I would have to keep resyncing to the folders I sync to, but now, after deleting everything in the folders and starting fresh (to add DSP effects to the tracks), I have 796 files in the queue every time I try to sync, and all 796 are already in the folder I use; and nothing has changed with those tracks--no tag changes, nothing. I thought initially maybe the issue was that the folder I sync to was a local Google Drive folder and thus it's own syncing to the cloud was causing some issue when I would recheck sync in MC, but this problem is happening with another Handheld I have setup that syncs only to a desktop folder in Windows (i.e., no cloud connection with it). I've searched the forums many times, and I can't find anyone who seems to have this problem, except when syncing directly to a real device, i.e., an Android phone. But again, these are syncs to folders on Windows 7 machine's hdd! I"ve tried shutting down MC and then rechecking the sync, I've rebooted, and nothing seems to work.
If it's relevant, the workflow looks like this:
1. Handheld set up to sync to Google Drive folder "Music" which in turn gets synced their cloud and thence to my Galaxy S5's SD card via Foldersync (currently 796 tracks "in queue" that already exist in the Music folder and on my phone).
2. Handheld set up to sync to a local folder on my Windows PC which then gets dumped into iTunes for syncing to my daughter's iPod (currently 4 tracks "in queue" that already exist in her folder).
Both of these are mostly converting lossless flac/ape files to VBR mp3s, though with some mp3/aac files not converted too.
Thanks for any and all help!
