I am having an interesting error. Since I am playing with the "import metadata from musicbrainz" button a lot I was having an critical error and Mixxx was crashing very often. I thought it was because the changes I did on while I am trying to add cover art fetcher. I changed my branch to upstream/main, I was having the same error. So I decided to take a look.

It is happening after I click a track which is updated with a new metadata.
What is happening:
I update a track with "Import Metadata from Musicbrainz"
I apply the changes.
I click on the song which is updated on the track library and Mixxx crashes.

The error is:
critical [Main] DEBUG ASSERT: "getSourceSynchronizedAt() <= fileSourceSynchronizedAt" in function mixxx::TrackRecord::SourceSyncStatus mixxx::TrackRecord::checkSourceSyncStatus(const mixxx::FileInfo&) const at /home/whoami/mixxx/src/track/trackrecord.cpp:175

So I commented that block of code in the function, I started to not have this error. I think it is related with the debug mode, and for developers to notice. I have also tried without developer mode, there was no error.

The function is:

mixxx/src/track/trackrecord.cpp

Line 136 in b58dd5b

TrackRecord::SourceSyncStatus TrackRecord::checkSourceSyncStatus(

Thanks for reporting this. We didn't consider a valid use case and this should not be a debug assertion. I wonder why no one has discovered that yet.
