Crescendo screwing up entire sections of playback
Hello everyone, I haven§t seen anyone mentioning this, so I§m wondering if I§m the only one having this issue?
So some crescendos and decrescendos work just fine, but some of them decide to do a little funky thing of choosing one note they are attached to, and just... hold it out for couple of bars. Even after the crescendo ends.
And since I'm writing for woodwinds and brass at the moment, it's really making the playback wonky as hell.
The only override I've found is to manually insert the crescendo on a smallest possible note in the group (one that doesn't glitch) and just graphically stretching it over entire phrase. The playback is still not great because of this, because there's "functional" crescendo only on one note, the rest is only graphically stretched. When exported to pdf, it will be alright for musicians, but I need to submit semi-functional playback to school too, or the musicians will not even get to it :')
Anyways, I hope this was at least a bit understandable?
Has something like this happened to anyone?
Thanks in advance
----Also can't upload video format here, so google drive link of what's happening, because I feel like the explanation is a bit messy:

Can you post the score (the .mscz file)?
The newest version can be a little picky about how hairpins are entered. So, yes we do need the score to be able to help.
Adding .mscz file plus a video of how it sounds on my pc (whole bit this time).
I tried disabling all effects as well as checked for any hidden staves and whatnot.

Sounds OK to me when I play the mscz file but I am using MSBasic, not Muse Sounds. Someone else (using Muse Sounds) may be able to find something.

It seems to be that Muse sounds fixes the problem. Just download them for free on the Muse Hub app!

Tried it with muse sounds (I only have them at notebook, because the pc is behind proxy that won't allow them) but it made no difference. I tried with three independent sound fonts and MS basic too, doesn't change anything.

Try getting rid of the staccatos in the first bar for Flute 1.
As I suspected. The problem is the placement of the hairpins. In every case where a staccato note was held, it was caused by the hairpin in the measure. In some cases, the anchor point for the hairpin over lapped a dynamic mark. moving the anchor point solved the problem. In other cases just moving one end or the other of the hairpin was what worked.

Moving end of hairpins didn't do anything (except when the hairpin was on one note only). Removing all staccatos worked, but idk what to do when I need the staccatos and hairpins as well...

Are you saying that the file I posted doesn't play correctly?

It does play correctly, but I failed at replicating it at first.
Then I realized that musescore was automatically snapping the hairpins to dynamics markings, so I had to manually detach all of them. When I saved the file and reopened it, some of them reattached again, not sure why that happened. Yes, you are correct that dynamics attached to hairpin starts/ends are the issue here, but I haven't found a way to stop that auto-clipping. Sometimes I can't even separate it properly and just delete one of the elements and re/enter it.
Any idea how to disable the auto-attach?

Interesting. If I open my score on my system, it plays fine. I don't know of an auto reattach. Here is my score again. Please open it and play. If it doesn't play correctly, save it with an new number in the title, and post it here.
