8,625 plays today? I wish!

Wow! Just beat you - 8721 for the Royal Oak, Lewes !

Can't get any of the tracks to play at the moment , though they were playing earlier today.

Noticed the following though before the whole thing seized up:-
* The track totals plays for each song are less than they were under the previous system
* The track totals don't appear to advance at all at the moment.
* The tracks play sequentially 1 to 6 rather than randomly as previously.
* The new thumbnail photos assume that the illustration is going to be an album cover and allows the same number of pixels horizontally as vertically. If the illustration is not the same number of pixels in both directions (and none of mine are) then the photo will be stretched or squeezed to give an odd "Hall of Mirrors" effect.

In my days as a programmer, we had to debug all the glitches and mistakes BEFORE a program went live to the customer, not as we went along.

Just checked our Myspace before pressing "Submit message" and found that
* The "plays today" total has zeroed itself
* The tracks are playing again (Sequentiallly not randomly)
* The other mistakes still apply.
