    Default Active Playlist Corruption Issue

    The following behaviour has been observed on a fresh installation of Mezzmo 3.4.3.0 on Windows 8.1
    1. Initial default Active Playlist of Genre created under Video, as expected
    2. Films with multiple Genres appearing under more than one place in playlist, as expected
    3. A couple of films appeared with incorrect metadata e.g. filename of '1. Aliens' resulted in 'Alien Vs Predator' being returned.
    4. Opened Properties of affected item(s) and performed a manual On-line search.
    5. Found correct film and ensured property details were correct. Clicked OK

    Suddenly the 'Action' branch of the playlist which had previously listed some 20 films, contained only a single entry! This was an Active Playlist icon labelled with the 2nd genre (e.g. Thriller) returned by the on-line search. In turn this contained another AP icon, labelled with the 3rd Genre and so on.

    This 'corruption' only occurs with the first returned Genre i.e. looking at the status of the items listed under the 2nd Genre e.g. (Genre | Thriller), everything appears ok.

    Manually amending the property window to change the list of Genre's does NOT cause the same corruption.

    The workround is simple enough - create another identical Active Playlist and all films are listed correctly. However any further on-line searches are liable to corrupt this list as well.

    I've only tested this with Genre as I don't use any of the other Active Playlists e.g. Creator, and had therefore deleted them before performing the above changes.

    I suspect that the problem is related to Mezzmo detecting changes to multi-value fields.
