Advance Category Not Playing Next Album

[mgehringer]

So I have Advance Category selected in the player so when one album is done, the next one in alphabetical order will play. This works fine except for one specific album. After it's over it just stops.  I didn't have this problem until recently when I switched phones to a Galaxy S8.

The album in question is one big Flac file with a Cue. I've used this exact set of files on other phones w/Poweramp without any issue.

I just can't figure out why playback will just stop. I've added a screenshot of what Poweramp looks like when the track ends so you can see I have the Advance Category option selected.   I've looked around in the settings a few times but nothing sticks out as a solution.  Any help would be appreciated.  I'm on build 939 btw.

Do other 'albums' created from CUE files work correctly and continue into the next album? Even if it was the last album in the list, Advance Category should still go back to the start again (effectively it means "Repeat All Categories", there isn't currently a "Play All Categories" option which stops at the end of the last album).

[Edit] I just tried with a CUE-generated album and it worked fine, next album played afterwards. Could you post a copy of the CUE file here (it'll be plain text, so just paste the contents into the message editor).

Hi Andre.  Thanks for responding and apologies for taking so long to get back to this.  Anyway, to answer your question, yes other albums with CUE files work correctly and go to the next album.  All of my Lamb Of God albums are each one big FLAC with a CUE and they all move to the next album.  They are also all in one folder w/sub folders for each album on my micro sd card as well if that makes any difference.  The one in question did work fine up until I got this new phone.  I know it's not the biggest problem to have, but I'm scratching my head trying to figure out why.  Here is the CUE as requested.  Thanks for taking a look.

Those CUE files look fine. I assume the FLAC files are longer than the final track's starting timecode, and the tracks play correctly on their own? This may be one for @maxmp to comment on.

After my last response I deleted/reuploaded the affected files again and reinstalled Poweramp with no luck somehow.  At that point I decided to go nuclear and just wipe the phone and start over which I do periodically anyway.  Then it started to work properly.  So I really don't have any idea what was up with it.  Maybe a system update somewhere down the line caused some kind of obscure Android corruption.  I don't think it was directly related to Poweramp.  Thanks for taking the time to help me out.

[andrewilley]

Could have been some sort of corruption in one of the FLAC files, but I would have expected it to show a "failed to play" toast message if that happened (and multiple song fails would then cause playback to stop)
