Autodj tracklist pages ahead when unattended

[Ard van Breemen]

Hi guys,
I notice that when I use autodj to listen through my total tracklist to try and get a grasp on the songs, the tracklist of the autodj is usually a few pages ahead after a time of playing unattended.

I am not sure how or what, or if something needs focus. It bit me a few times thinking I was in a particular place in the tracklist, but what seems to happen:

Every time a song has started, it will be removed from the list, this works perfectly fine.
What I think happens is that when a page full of tracks get removed from the list, the list gets paged 1 page forward.
I am inclined to believe that when I click on the end of a song to fast forward through the list to get some insight in the reasons

Sorry for this bad excuse for a bug report. It happens when I am not looking and then look back and wondering where the songs are that should be upcoming.
OS: Ubuntu 18.04 on a WIN2, using a hercules universal DJ
CPU: intel arch core M
Steps to reproduce: fill your autodj queue, walk away for a long time, come back, look at a few pages ahaed.
Version: ubuntu nightly ppa: 2.2.0~rc~git664-0 .
I've noticed it in pre 2.1 too before.
The skin is Deere .

The bug is of course minor. But I think it's also not related to autodj, but to generic list handling with dynamic updates, so keep that in mind when looking at list code :-).

Regards,
Ard

Thank you for reporting the bug.
Unfortunately I cannot confirm this with the current 2.1.5 Version on Ubuntu Trusty.
Did you change anything after starting the Auto-DJ? Could it be a special track that causes the behavior? How reliable are you able to reproduce it?
How log does it takes until the issue appears?

I'm just back from vacation. I will try to set it up again.
My last notice was from a night long autodj while I was asleep.
So give or take about 7 hours.
A lot more variables might be in play, like which pane has
focus.
I tried to reproduce it myself in a short run but it wouldn't
budge. Maybe I should make a setup with a few hundred 5s tracks
:-).

For now I haven't seen it re-appear. I now run 2.3.0 pre git 6743, and I've been running a previous version for quite some time now on an armhf running bionic.
The difference between then and now is that I now have an DDJ-SX3, running a modified SX controller script. My hercules universal DJ control script was 99% mapped in-engine, with 1% going to javascript.
Maybe I should just get that universal dj controller back and try it again.
I actually wanted to close this bug until I realized the big difference is the controller script.
The DDJ-SX script maps I think 100% to javascript. That might be the big difference.
