Playlist

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
I have no problem with connecting

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When browsing playlist, the length of song always displays as 59:59
And whichever song you choose, it always start playing the very first song of 
the playlist

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The latest one on found on this site, I have a desire with 2.2

Please provide any additional information below.
I do have a MAC that runs on tiger 10.4.11

Are you running iTunes?  When you said 59:59 you weren't clear about which 
server you are connecting to?  I test against MonkeyTunes and iTunes and have 
not seen the 59:59 problem.

I test against Itunes so that makes me think for some reason your MP3 is 
reporting its length as 59:59 like a bad tag or something?

Do you have an example of 1 MP3 you are using you could post somewhere?

I don't think it's my file/computer?
Just to show, I took a photo by using an album as a new playlist

IMG2549 is what you see if you go under Artist, find the artist, then display 
the album.
IMG2547 is the result on the playlist. Same album, same Artist, and what's 
funny, no matter which one you click, it would always start the first one lol

BTW, this happens to every playlist, include my PodCasts and what not.

Thanks for the fast reply

I see this too and think I already have some work in progress code to fix it 
up.  I'll look at what I did and try to resolve this issue.

A couple things a noticed the other night:

Sometimes, what u see on the playlist is not what u get,
When u browse by artist, then by album, what the remote would do 
is grab the album and turns into a new playlist on iTunes, but despite the 
order you see on the menu
(Which is the track number if u tagged it right, it will be a weird order)
And when u try the song you see on the phone, chances are it's not.the order u 
see on the phone

Another thing I think can be improved is that when show the currently playing 
song,
If you press the back button on the phone, it jumps back to phone desktop,
Could this button be server as a menu button just like iPod?

OK I use MonkeyTunes and not iTunes and was not able to reproduce the 59:59 
issue but I was able to fix the selected item in the playlist is set to play 
rather than always the first item.
Fixed in changeset 36:

I can reproduce the issue.  What tool is best to see traffic coming from iTunes?

Well I think an easier way to debug it is to debug in Android TunesRemote and 
watch the incoming traffic and see why it is defaulting to 59.59.

I haven't had a chance to revisit this but will hopefully be able to soon.  If 
I remember coorectly, the playlist isn't getting the song lengths from iTunes 
so we should be hiding it when it's not available rather than defaulting to 
59:59.

Any update on this 59:59 issue with iTunes?

I was able to fix the 59:59 issue for iTunes and version 2.0.9 has been 
released on the Market.
