[BUG] Jellyfin Fingerprint playlist generation naming scheme not consistent

[Th3K1ngP1n]

Describe the bug
When creating fingerprint playlist is gernerated by jellyfin, the name of the playlist is followed by a numer

for example:

Name-Fingerprint ● 83

next generated one will be

Name-Fingerprint ● 84

and so on.

This cause issues with Symfonium online playlist, as the playlist is assumed different each time it is generated.
I cannot say that the naming scheme is the only thing preventing symfonium from having online playlist, maybe the ID also. But other online playlists work.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
0. Load fingerprint playlist online first to symfonium

1. Generate a new fingerprint playlist
2. Sync symfonium
3. Original Playlist is not empty and gone to limbo
4. See error

Expected behavior
Old playlist is replaced with contents of new playlist without changing the playlist id or naming scheme.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: [e.g. Debian, Windows]
• Deployment: [e.g. Docker Compose, K3s, Helm]
• AudioMuse-AI Version: [e.g. v0.4.0-beta, latest]
• Jellyfin/Navidrome Version: [e.g. Navidrome 0.57.0]
• Browser: [e.g. chrome, safari]
• CPU: [e.g. Intel I5-6500, Arm xyz]
• RAM: [e.g. 8GB DDR4]
• Disk: [e.g. SSD Nvme]

Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here. For example, logs from the audiomuse-ai-worker or audiomuse-ai-flask containers can be very helpful. Also logs from the Browser could help too (on Chrome > right mouse button > click on inspect > go to Network tab > click on call that is in red/fail and copy the content).
If the bug is related to a specific album/songs please share information like format, size, bitrate. On linux you can use mediainfo yoursong.flac

I don't understand the bug.
When you are in AudioMuse-AI front-end you can put the name that you want and it should be visible everywhere like any other playlist.
When you use AudioMuse-AI jellyfin plugin, that create it automatically, it should delete the old one playlist and create a new one. This because it assign the exact same name and delete the other.

Worst case scenario, if plugin is not able to delete the old one, you should have two fingerprint playlist with the same name (I look that this same tames could happen). This because Jellyfin accept two or more playlist with the same name without issue.

Can you explain bettwe in which of this scenario you are?
explain what is the AS-IS (what you're looking happening and where) and what you would like as TO-BE.

Thanks.

Hi,

Sure, I will try and explain a bit better.

AS-IS

• Audiomuse AI Sonic Fingerprint in Jellyfin is working as intended. No issues.
• I use Symfonium as client. and, importing the playlist as "online first" from Jellyfin works.
• However, when the Audiomuse AI Sonic Fingerprint task is triggered again, and, the new tracks are added, the playlist name/numbering/ID seems to change and symfonium no longer recognizes it after a fresh sync.

TO-BE

• The new Fingerprint playlist tracks should populate the same playlist that symfonium has automatically after a sync, but, it doesn't. Instead, it clears the original one. I will attach some screenshots shortly.

When you are in AudioMuse-AI front-end you can put the name that you want and it should be visible everywhere like any other playlist.

For sonic fingerprint mix I dont have the option to name it ? Or Im missing something.

[Th3K1ngP1n]

This is my current sonic playlist. Numbered 83

When I run the fingerprint task again from Jellyfin, this playlist is empty in symfonium after syncing. I can only get the finger print mix back by importing again. It will then have the number 84.

I think that the jellyfin playlist IDs are changing and symfonium picks it up as totally new playlist each time which is undesired for online first.

Does it make sense?

Ok now I understood. What happen is intended on AudioMuse-AI side. It delete the old and create a new one. The name is the same but is a new one.
This is the same also for playlist created with clustering for example.
Is intended because you can say “I like this playlist, so I rename it to avoid to be deleted at the next round”.

But it breaks the online first functionality in Symfonium. Which is not ideal, seeing as the user would ideally like a weekly Fingerprint mix without having to add/delete each week.

Audiomuse-AI in both clustering and fingerprint, that are where it automatically create playlist, first delete the old and then create new one.
In case of clustering it delete all the playlist that end with _automatic and recreate new playlist.
In case of fingerprint it delete the old user-fingerprint and create the new one with the exact name.

In both the scenario the logic is aligned, even because on clustering you don’t know which cluster you will create next round.

My expectation is that whichever app you use should be aligned with the functionality of the media server.

In this case you’re saying that on Symfonium you have to click an import button (unlikely I only have iOS so I can’t check myself). My question is if maybe there is a functionality to just do the import automatically.

I’m asking it because I don’t like the idea to have clustering working different form fingerprint. Also I would keep the possibility to the user to just rename a playlist to don’t be deleted automatically. If I work by id this will not be possible.

If I’m missing something please let me know.

Yes there is, but, like I said, it seems that the playlist counter in Jellyfin is sequential. Therefore, symfonium thinks it's a new playlist each time.

I can make a feature request in Symfonium to see if its possible to override this.

[NeptuneHub]

IT IS a new playlist each time. I think that the point is that it doesn’t recognise that the other one didn’t exist anymore for what you’re describing here. So is the clean part that need to be review.

Than if change the fingerprint functionality will save our life I’ll do. But to me seems strange that Symfonium don’t clean the removed things.

Edit: by the way thanks for your time in using AudioMuse-AI and report your feedback. All feedback is very valuable for us and help improving the software.

[Th3K1ngP1n]

Thank you also @NeptuneHub for making this software.🙏

I have asked in Symfonium forum for feedback.

I actually done the same thing today. Its truly a great piece of software and support is next level. All for the price of lunch.
