Checkboxes in the database editor behave differently in NL and EN clients (causes underruns)

Hi guys,

We use mAirList with both Dutch and English clients.
In the database editor (Item → Attributes → Standard Attributes), we noticed behaviour that affects our planning.

A volunteer may check a box in the Dutch client (for example “Nonstop”).
Later, when we run the Mini Planner in the English client, the planner reports that not enough items can be found for the selection.
At first we didn’t understand why.

When we checked some of the items in the English client, the checkbox appeared unchecked.
We then opened the same items on another PC that happened to run in Dutch, and there the checkbox was still checked.

We only discovered this mismatch by coincidence.
Because of this, the scheduler sometimes has too few items available, which can lead to underruns in our planned playlists.

Is there a way to make these checkboxes behave consistently across languages?

Kind regards,
Marco

Hi Marco, I discovered this behaviour too lately and forwarded your post internally to Torben.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your quick reply. I hope Torben can shed some light on this issue.

Kind regards,
Marco
