(bug) WACUP sometimes stops playing when switching song
« on: December 08, 2025, 01:24:07 PM »
Hi, I have this issue that happens every now and then:

 1. Drop an mp3 file on Wacup main window -> playlist is cleared, dropped file is added, mp3 starts to play
 2. Now drop an m3u8 playlist on the Playlist editor -> playlist gets appended
 3. Wait until the playback of the originally dropped mp3 file finishes
 4. Playback is stopped instead of progressing to the next item in the playlist.

I use default settings for wacup playback afaik.

I've seen this issue for several preview builds but haven't reported since I can't isolate a good repro but I'll report it now anyway as it is a bit annoying. I get it a few times a week but whenever I try to intentionally reproduce the issue I can't.  :-\

Using WACUP x86 v1.99.43.23234.

What's the state of repeat & shuffle?

Shuffle on
Repeat off

The only obvious thing I can think of is that it might be related to the bottom option on the Playlist prefs page which is going to be disabled by default in the next build instead of being on by default as it doesn't work correctly on other setups vs what it was intended to resolve & it happened to be a recent(ish) addition which likely aligns with the behaviour changing as you've noted.
