I have experienced this issue as well. It seems that it happens any time I open the Options menu. It will play 2 songs back-to-back over and over and will never advance to the rest of the Playlist. The only solution I've found is to restart the jukebox software. I’m having the same issue and disabled cross fade cause I want to hear the end and begging of the songs but it cause the above mentioned problem.

I had this problem yesterday where one track would play repeatedly, i ended up deleting the cache file and re-indexing and its back working as it should until the next time, i have also disabled crossfade as well as i couldn't get a fine balance between hearing the start and end of a track but also helps on repeated tracks i dont get as many.

I can comfirm that I too have this issue now. I just installed the newest version onto an all in one. All music is stored on the 2 tb hard drive on the computer. I installed touchjams, pointed it to my music folders and let it load. After loading all music it started playing songs (Auto DJ). After playing a couple of songs (3 or 4) it repeated a song. I had to stop Touchjams to stop the issue. This morning I picked a bunch of songs to play and the same thing happened. It got to one song and repeated a previous song. Funny thing is it said it was playing the song I added but was not. It continued to play the repeated song until I pressed the next button. I have not changed any crossfade settings. I don't recall this happening with previous versions. So it has happened with Auto DJ running and with songs selected by the user. Will continue to monitor the issue as to try and give more info.

This does seem to surface more when you are fiddling around in the Options. The other thing I have noticed, at least in my case is it does seem to do it with songs of longer length. Ted Nugent - Stranglehold 8:23, Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird 10:07, Diamond Head - I Am Evil 7:40, just to name a few. I too have tried changing the Cross Fader settings and it does not like it. Repeats happen way more often. Mix Start From End = 10000. Fade In Seek Position = 5000. These settings did not work well. Gonna continue to try different settings for now. Anyone else still having this problem? Not seeing much in these forums.

OK, after using the Music Box all weekend...no repeats? Used both Auto DJ and user added songs. I did set Cross Fader back to default settings. Software is amazing. Ran with no issues at all. I'm wondering if repeats were happening because of the limited use of the software, new install on a new computer? I just assembled this particular music box as to have a portable unit to take to family events. I'll post pictures later in the appropriate forum. Thanks go to Bob, again for this fantastic program.

I have an idea that the repeated song issue "could" be do to incremental updates to the music library, i have only experienced this strange behavior a couple of times. It has always occurred when i have been adding tracks to an existing database. I have NEVER had it on a clean, full database update, also my cross fader is at default settings.

A next version beta will be coming out in the near future (hopefully days/weeks) which has many bug fixes in the following areas: 1) jukebox and user playlists 2) cross fader, including customization 3) auto dj
There will be a change list posted along with the next version download, and all this will be located on the TouchJams.com website under the News section.
Cheers

This version seems bullet proof. I have been using it since release date for hours each day. I have not seen the repeated song issue arise. I have added albums continuously. I have not messed with the cross fader...YET. Might fiddle around with that today. Your efforts to continually update this software is appreciated. Thanks for all you do, Bob.

Glad to hear that you aren't seeing repeated songs.
For testing the cross fader, I added a key mapping which will make the currently playing song jump to near the end. To set this up: 1) Options/System/Key Mapping 2) Add 3) Assign a keyboard key, and for the Function, choose Player Position – Near End Now, when a song is playing, hit the key you used above, the player will jump to near the end of the song, and then you can see what happens with the cross fader.
