Excuse me for asking , which is the latest release 1.7.5 as all i can see on the new release is 1.7.4, yet many are saying that the 1.7.5 is being used by them.
Please clarify
thank you

[TQ]

There is a very nasty bug in AutoDJ when using Artist Separation option. We just activated this option and at random times, RDJ marks the majority of artists in the DB as played, even though they were not. Last night RDJ aired only jingles for about one hour and a half because of this.
Our settings_artists file looks like this:

F.|f.|Ft.|ft.|Feat.|feat.|feat|Feat|Featuring|featuring|;|,|and|&|pres|pres.|Pres|Pres.|presents|Presents|with|With|Vs.|vs.|Vs|vs

I also attached a screenshot. Most of the DB looks like that, including jingles, TOH, etc.
The song that last triggered the issue was Mishelle Feat Randi - Only You, even though it is irrelevant since this happents randomly.
When this bug is not messing up the artists last played times, it's working as it should.

Dragos,

Perhaps it has something to do with spaces-usage. I noticed you have |;|,|and|&| without spaces. I'm not sure where I've seen a post about this, but as I recall, you should try adding spaces, like so:

| ; |, |and| & |

(Note that I have not put a space in front of the comma)

Perhaps someone else knows the inner workings of the seperation..

Try this and let us know how it works.

That option is very experimental, i wouldn't use it in a studio environment (like yours). There is a long topic around what lead to implement it.

Thanks for the reply, Marius.
@rogiermaas I will also try this on an isolated install of RDJ and see how it handles things.
Thanks.

Well, after trying what rogiermaas recomended, I can confirm that is not working, so for now, it's wise not to use the Artist Separation option.
