No, it is also done in the current version - but currently not with the new manual multi-playlist generation, but only with the Automatic In Advance generation. I might add that pdf report generation also to that in the next version.

However, I cannot experience the issues or crashes you have. It also doesn't hang or freeze when you close the dialog!
Can you send me the file called "Error.log" (contained in the ProppFrexx AppUserData folder)?!
Or if there is no error, in there, can you see, if there is anything recorded in the Windows Eventlog?
Hi Bernd,

I tested the problem I am trying to describe on another pc with a clean demo version of ProppFrexx. And I experience the same problems.
So ProppFrexx crashes after trying to restore multiple occurences.
To make it a bit clearer I made a short movie (in my best English ;) ). You can download it here: https://we.tl/t-7Gf5LPqZ1t

I tried to reproduce that here, but unfortunately I couldn't - the Restore occurrence functions works as expeced without any crash here.
Can you please send me your program scheduler .calendar file to test with...
So, once you generated the playlist (do NOT restore), but please close the program scheduler and send me than the .calendar file.

A v4.2.3.1-update is out, which should fix the issue and also adds the pdf report to the playlist generation.

Hi Bernd,

Thanks for the update! Multiple restoring ocurrences works fine now without any crashes. And also thanks for adding the pdf report to the playlist generation!

It's not working here on my machine.
Also not working on my clean laptop with demo version.

What am I doing wrong? I do the same thing as A-FM.
The scripts contains enough lines and the libary is big enough.
I wait for several minutes but no result.

Looking at the video, I do not know, what the script is doing - maybe it wouldn't work. But it works in general - definitely.
I am also not sure, what license you have? Note, that you need a Premium Edition at least.

You might also select first just one card and right-click and select the 'Create Playlist Template' and see, if that works, as it should do the same, but just for a single program/script instead of multiple.

I use the professional licence.

See photo for script (one line script repeat, when I put more lines in the script it doesn't help).

See other photo for 'Create Playlist Template' (this option is working)

Media libary contains 16.000 songs

If the ‚Create Playlist Template‘ function is working, the multi-select should also work. I don’t see any reason why not. I saw, that it didn’t, but all my tests look fine here - so currently can not explain it!
