The dialog appears everytime a file is imported into the playlist, and its tags, MMD file or auto-cue values are loaded. When auto-cue is disabled, and you only import a single file, the dialog might disappear again in the same moment, because the operation finishes so fast. I introduced the dialog because I thought it was good to have a feedback when performing lengthy file imports, just like dropping hundreds of files into the playlist with auto-cue enabled.

In the German forum, other people have reported strange errors related to BASS.DLL, only ocurring in v.43 but not in the previous snapshot. This misterious auto-cue bug might also be related to BASS.DLL. In between snapshot 484 and v.43, I have changed the way in which several internal components are initialized, including the interface to BASS.DLL. However, these changes are not relevant for version 2.1 (but only for v3.0, which I have started to prepare - more details to follow). I will undo a these changes and prepare a new snapshot based on .v42-484, plus the bug fixes since then (yes, Cad, also stop logging). Let's see if that helps.

I was careful when I copied mAirList.exe (from the ZIPfile) into my (dev) mAirList program directory, to also copy all the BASS DLLs in the ZIPfile, just in case they were updated or different versions from the existing BASS DLLs in my (dev) mAirList program directory.

Could that be a possible reason for the BASS problems the German forum users are seeing?  b486 is working 100% fine here.

I'd rather say it's related to the initialization changes.

I have now uploaded Build 487. As mentioned above, this is v.42 Build 484 plus all bug fixes since then. No other internal changes. Please give it a try.

And by the way, as I mentioned mAirList 3.0, here's a little information about it:

It will be released very soon, but still in development status. It will have roughly the same feature set and interface as mAirList 2.1, but with massive changes in the internal structures, code cleanup etc. I figured that these changes are necessary in order to prepare the forthcoming stable release, which will be mAirList 3.1.

I will continue to provide bug fixes for v2.1 until v3.0.0 is out. Thereafter, I will concentrate on adding the final "urgent" features and fixing the remaining bugs in v3.0, and then release v3.1. I think it time is due for a new stable release.

Checked it: only by drag&drop i see the dialog, not @ loading a playlist as I referred to :-0

Can we upgrade 2.1 to 3.1 or do we need to make a clean install?

As usual, most of the configuration will be preserved, but I'm planning to split the configuration into further ini files, so those settings will have to be recreated manually.
