Has anyone else had the following problem with the favorite visuals feature in the 2.00betaX

You add a while bunch of visuals to your favorites, save the changes, then sync. Later on you add some music and resync. Then take a look at the amount of favorite visuals there are. it just doubled. Sync again and that amount doubles. then that amount double....and so on.

Is there any way around this?

Do a search on it, it is a known problem and mentioned in the FAQs as well. I don't use them right now. Don't make any changes to them through config.ini. Do the changes through Emplode.

The problem will be fixed eventually.

Ok then. Thanks.

I did make my changes through emplode initially. but to remove them I just looked at the config.ini and fixed it there.

As Laura said, known bug. It happens if you have Favourite visuals set and do more than one sync in the same session of emplode. To work around it - just close emplode after each sync.

There's two ways to get at the Favourites lists though, through the GUI (selecting source and which visuals you want in the lists) or through editing the config.ini file. The former is the way to do it.

I did tell him it was in the FAQs, just didn't point him to it. I'll know next time to complete the job and send them on their merry way.
