Can you please add more repro steps? Without that we don't know what to act on.

[lazarjov]

There are only two steps, and the bug occurs.

[rawnly]

@lazarjov can you provide some details about playlists names? I think is a problem with the playlist grouping function, but I can't reproduce the issue. Maybe some weird characters or spacing or just data malformation.

I group playlists based on a property in the that the music app provides, which is the "kind" of playlist (it can be something like user or music I don't remember exactly.)

if it isn't found it should display "Other", but maybe there's a bug.

One thing you can do is to run the following AppleScript and paste the output here, to see if there's some inconsistence in the data returned by the script.

set output to ""
    tell application "Music"
        repeat with selectedPlaylist in  playlists
            set pId to the id of selectedPlaylist
            set pName to the name of selectedPlaylist
            set pDuration to the duration of selectedPlaylist
            set pCount to count (tracks of selectedPlaylist)
            set pTime to the time of selectedPlaylist
            set pKind to the class of selectedPlaylist
            set pDesc to the description of selectedPlaylist
            set output to output & "id=" & pId & "&name=" & pName & "&duration=" & pDuration & "&count=" & pCount & "&time=" & pTime & "&kind=" & pKind & "&description=" & pDesc & ""
        end repeat
    end tell
return output

Also knowing which version of macOS you are running could be helpful.

Thanks

[lazarjov]

I am running macOS Monterey v12.4.

I do have some playlists that start with # or '. I renamed them (or removed them) and nothing changed. Other Music commands work well.

Bob Marley is one of them. And though The Wailers defined roots reggae in the '60s, this playlist emphasizes their crossover contributions from the '70s, when Marley redrew the genre's boundaries with smooth, distorted guitar lines, jubilant rhythms, and even a few hot disco grooves, as on the irresistibly bouncy \"Could You Be Loved.\" Bob's vocals, meanwhile, remain generous and life-affirming: On the slavery-indicting \"Redemption Song,\" his voice wavers as if carrying the burdens of all who are oppressed.id=16303&name=Childish Gambino Essentials&duration=5559&count=21&time=1:32:39&kind=subscription playlist&description=Donald Glover is the kind of guy who makes the rest of us wonder what we're even doing with our lives. Actor, writer, director, comedian, hip-hop artist—he manages to do them all, not in a dilettantish, jack-of-all-trades kind of way but rather in a let's-win-Golden Globes-and-headline-Coachella kind of way. Stand-up chops, slick wordplay and a goofy nasal delivery powered his early Childish Gambino mixtapes and indie albums, but by the time he released 2013's hazy, sunny <I>Because the Internet</I>, he'd come into his own as an MC and singer, largely shedding his jokey persona for a more serious approach. His range and cultural impact have only widened as his subject matter has grown darker, more ambitious, and more curious. <I>\"Awaken, My Love!”</I>, which yielded the falsetto-driven hit “Redbone,” is a neon funk-soul odyssey in the vein of Sly & The Family Stone and George Clinton. And 2018's politically charged “This Is America”—a gospel-assisted commentary on gun violence and racism that pulls no punches—not only earned him Grammys for Song and Record of the Year; they were also the first hip-hop wins for either category.id=16327&name=Classic Rock Essentials&duration=35691&count=142&time=9:54:51&kind=subscription playlist&description=We have radio to thank for inventing classic rock. Conceived as a programming format, it emerged in the ’80s when stations began devoting heavy airtime to a mix of beloved titans from the ’60s and ’70s (The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Bob Seger) and then-current hitmakers (Tom Petty, John Mellencamp) whose music contains heavy echoes of the vintage stuff. Even when classic rock opens its ranks to ’90s alt-rockers such as Soundgarden, it’s because they sound old-school. In terms of stylistic variety, the format boasts considerable leg room. Classic rock rotation can and does include soaring ballads from Pink Floyd, The Beatles, and Elton John, and even the occasional glam nugget from David Bowie. Yet at the end of the day, the format definitely relies heaviest on thunderous hard-rock anthems perfect for Friday night parties or powering you through your workday.id=16472&name=Classical Concentration&duration=10621&count=49&time=2:57:01&kind=subscription playlist&description=There's something about the precision of classical music that makes it an especially good companion for staying on task.

The landmark 1953 Miles Davis album <I>Birth of the Cool</I> gave the aesthetic its name—with gorgeously opaque arrangements and a measured swing in response to bebop’s frenzied drive—but musicians were already experimenting with chill atmospheres and relaxed tempos, emphasizing liquid melodic flow as well as chamber-like settings. Horn players like Lee Konitz and Chet Baker adopted airy, silken tones that belied the harmonic sophistication of their lines, which often came in fleet multi-linear tangles. Big-band leaders like Gil Evans and Stan Kenton deployed rich arrangements that stressed gauzy timbres and counterpoint as much as swinging rhythms.id=16625&name=Fleetwood Mac Essentials&duration=5881&count=25&time=1:38:01&kind=subscription playlist&description=Thanks to its emotional complexities, Fleetwood Mac's music only grows richer with familiarity. A central pillar of pop songcraft in the '70s and '80s, they honed a singular sound with their elegant hooks, folksy intimacy, and L.A. harmonies soaring like lonely eagles above the Pacific. The brutally honest “Go Your Own Way” chronicles the dissolution of Lindsey Buckingham's relationship with Stevie Nicks, while the darkly prismatic “Rhiannon” refracts the latter's haunted psyche. The Mac's songs are far more than catchy; they are windows into their makers' souls.id=16653&name=For Body and Mind&duration=3854&count=19&time=1:04:14&kind=subscription playlist&description=Keep your outlook positive and your body powered up.id=16675&name=Get Up!

Jimi Hendrix set them on fire. B.B. King nearly died trying to rescue one from a burning building. And Keith Richards apparently slept with them—which, as he put it, is how he managed to record the riff to “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” in the middle of the night without quite waking up. A great rock guitarist isn’t necessarily a virtuoso, but someone who shifts your understanding of what the instrument can do. So while this playlist pays deference to the fast (Eddie Van Halen), the smooth (Eric Clapton), and the powerful (Jimmy Page), it also makes room for primitives like The Stooges and Nirvana, Dave Davies of The Kinks, and Chuck Berry—players who weren’t flashy, but whose approach introduced sounds nobody had quite heard before.

This set covers all the festive bases.id=16984&name=Kendrick Lamar Essentials&duration=6533&count=25&time=1:48:53&kind=subscription playlist&description=In an interview with Apple Music, Kendrick Lamar reflected on his 2015 album <I>To Pimp a Butterfly</I>—in particular, the song “Alright.” It wasn’t that it sold well (it did). It wasn’t that it won awards (it did). It wasn’t even that it broke new ground for where hip-hop might go. For Lamar, the success was that people sang it in the streets. “A lot of people don’t have voices out there,” he said. “So to see them actually express themselves through song, through lyrics that I wrote?” For a kid from Compton whose life was transformed by hip-hop, the fame was nice, but the singing, the spirit, the possibility that his music was opening a cultural inroad for people joining the fight for civil rights—<I>that</I> was real. He might’ve been writing alone. But he was speaking for many.<br> Born in 1987, Lamar grew up under the influence of JAY-Z, Eminem, and 2pac—for the wordplay, for the imagination, for the heart and sense of community. Given its popularity, Lamar’s music can be surprisingly dense, taking shape in winding, album-length narratives (<I>good kid, m.A.A.d city</I>), live-band hybrids of jazz and funk (<I>To Pimp a Butterfly</I>), and quasi-conceptual explorations of self (2017’s Pulitzer Prize-winning <I>DAMN.</I>). Yes, he wants greatness. But he wants it on his own terms. “I’m not doing it to have a good song,” he said. “Or one good rap. Or a good hook, or a good bridge. I want to keep doing it <I>every time</I>, period. And to do it every time you have to challenge yourself, and you have to confirm to yourself—not anybody else—that you’re the best.”id=17012&name=Khalid Essentials&duration=7463&count=36&time=2:04:23&kind=subscription playlist&description=Thanks to the explosive success of lead-up single “Location,” Khalid was already omnipresent on the R&B scene when he released his 2017 debut album, <I>American Teen</I>. His gentle and inviting voice is often laid over sparse instrumentation, giving it room to breathe. On “Reasons,” he weaves melodically through the hollow beat, articulating sadness; “Coaster” is an aching ballad with a light touch of piano tiptoeing underneath Khalid's lilting and emotive lyrics. He picks up his sonic pace, though, when he collaborates with benny blanco and Halsey on the uptempo “Eastside,” where each of them plays off the electronic bounce of the beat.id=17051&name=Logic Essentials&duration=7949&count=32&time=2:12:29&kind=subscription playlist&description=While the Maryland-born Sir Robert Bryson Hall II—who records as Logic—flew to household-name fame on the wings of his 2017 suicide-hotline saga, “1-800-273-8255,” the rapper had been laying down roots as a savvy pop stylist for years. Logic is a fluid collaborator, as comfortable working with a radio-ready Ryan Tedder vocal (“One Day”) as he is trading bars with Pusha T (“Wrist”). But for the best possible introduction to Logic’s energy and worldview, tap into the conversational and confessional “Black SpiderMan.”id=17086&name=Muddy Waters Essentials&duration=2756&count=15&time=45:56&kind=subscription playlist&description=Muddy Waters is Chicago blues. When he came up from Mississippi in the ‘40s, he brought the Delta blues with him and electrified it both literally and figuratively, adding the industrial vibe of the Windy City to come up with searing stompers like “(I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man” and “Mannish Boy.” Muddy could sound like sadness personified (the moody, mournful “I Feel Like Going Home”) or come off like a fire-breathing force of nature (the rowdy “I'm Ready”), but whichever way he worked his mojo, he was the undeniable king of the Chicago sound.id=17104&name=Office DJ&duration=27721&count=152&time=7:42:01&kind=subscription playlist&description=There's nothing like a little music to keep the workplace humming.

Essentials&duration=5939&count=22&time=1:38:59&kind=subscription playlist&description=The Notorious B.I.G. was a wholly original rap stylist that paired a punishing, pugilistic flow with an acute sensitivity to language, granting lyrical virtuosity to gigantic, end-of-the-world anthems like “Kick In the Door” or “Who Shot Ya.” His rhymes read like a true crime novel soundtracked by Puffy-driven slabs of heavyweight breaks and crowd-pleasing samples from sources like Diana Ross (“Mo Money Mo Problems”), David Bowie (“Been Around the World”), and the Isley Brothers (“Big Poppa”). Like a tragic hero from a gangster flick, Biggie vividly articulated the game's intense pleasures and pain with stinging attention to detail. Jay Z, Cam'ron, and Lil Kim all benefited from Biggie's influence (and generous cosign), yet he will forever be linked to one rival, Tupac Shakur, in a beef to end all rap beefs. Known to his mother as Christopher Wallace, Biggie died on March 9, 1997 at the age of 24, just 16 days before the release of his second album, Life After Death.

And as the culture continues to move away from the dominance of the orchestra, scores—for movies, television, and streaming alike—are covering more emotional and stylistic ground than ever, absorbing elements of electronic and pop music in ways that further enrich the interplay between image and sound.

The only problem I see there is that the querystring confuses the word R&B with a query param. But this is not causing the crash (i tried editing one of my playlists).

~I'll try adding all those playlists to my library and see what happen. (I hope I can do it via apple script and playlists ids 👀)~

[rawnly]

Unfortunately I can't add those playlist by scripting it. (And honestly those are too many to add manually) Can you check-out this branch and run the dev command to see what happens when you try to "start a playlist"?

[lazarjov]

No worries, I know it's a lot 😅

If u're not comfortable with the environment don't worry. I may have found the problem while trying to address another issue (#1570)

I'll open a new PR in minutes maybe it will fix this one too 🤞
