Among the unlisted fixes: iTunes 12.4.1 also fixes a regression in 12.4.0 where multiple selected tracks or albums wouldn't be added correctly to Up Next from the "Add to Up Next" context menu option. (I know, since I reported a radar on this, which was promptly marked a duplicate.)
Alas, "Start Genius" is still missing in 12.4.1. Such a great feature for those of us with large libraries, to just kick it off and see where it'd go. It's still possible to create Genius Playlists, but that eventually makes a mess of playlists. Typically, I'd only save Genius' very best results as a Genius Playlist.
Thanks Apple for putting Reset Play Count back into this update.
Smart Playlists are still out of order. Is this ever going to be fixed? I've tried everything and nothing will reorder the playlists.
