[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 785822] Re: Banshee does not remove selected song from playlist

[Nicholas Corey]

My friend recently imported his database from iTunes.  This evening he
complained that songs couldn't be removed from his playlists, but upon
further investigation, I noticed that the items in the list would shift
up a little and that the song count in the left pane for the playlist
would decrement by 1 each time he tried.  This only seemed to happen
when "All Albums" was selected.  When individual albums were selected it
seemed to work just fine.

My guess is that the wrong song is being removed from the playlist,
possibly due to an indexing error.  Could it be using an album specific
index on the whole list?  This would be consistent with my observation
that the songs would get deleted further up the list from what was
selected.

Title:
  Banshee does not remove selected song from playlist

Status in Banshee Music Player:
  Incomplete
Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: banshee

  I have several playlists in Banshee (both static and smart).  Lately,
  I noticed that Banshee does not always remove the selected item from
  static playlist, instead it removes a random item. If you try to
  remove song that is playing, it always stays on the playlist and
  instead _ another_ song is removed. That to me is really unwanted
  behaviour.

  However, even if you are playing songs from playlist1, you sometimes
  cannot remove a songs from playlist2. And I mean the static playlists
  here where you add and remove items manually. I have not found clear
  logic on when the selected song can be removed. Only one case is
  clear: when you're playing songs in order (no shuffle), you can remove
  selected song after 4-5 songs have been played from begin to end after
  the one you want to remove. However, most often when you try to remove
  a song from static playlist, some song is removed -usually not the one
  you want.

  I am using 10.10 Ubuntu and Banshee 1.8.1.
