Hello,
my moode is showing a somewhat weird issue. When in "tag viewer" > selecting a genre > clicking the "moode image" > clear/play, for one tag (one genre) moode is only selecting 42 tracks into the playlist and is not starting playback automatically. For another genre it is selecting all tracks and shuffling, for the other genres it is selecting all songs and starting playback? (I like to listen to genres most of the time and like to just have it shuffle through my library, as I am mostly in the mood for a type of music rather than a specific band or cd)
To sum up:
Genre > Swing (or Blues) > Clear/play: All tracks added and no automatic playback
Genre > Neo-Folk > only 42 Songs, the same songs every time, no playback
Genre > Gothic > All songs added, playback starts automatically
It doesn't matter whether I am using Brave, Chrome (macOS) or safari (iOS) (iOS is showing album and track count on genre level though, which chrome isn't).
I am absolutely at a loss as to why this might happen and am currently "recreating" the Library (again) and hope there might be some further steps. I could try.
Thanks in advance,
DS

As it turns out, mpd can't quite handle filenames that contain ". mpd will still run, but cause an "exception", subsequently neither adding following tracks to the playlist nor starting to play. ssh'ing into moode and running the following command will show all files containing such quotation marks on all attached devices:
Editing the filenames (removing ") fixed the issue for all genres that had been affected in my case. Lots of thanks to Kent for helping me figure this.
