I noticed after a recent update, that the setting to make the decks stop playing once the song ends is no longer saving. Every time I launch VDJ, I have to go into the options and click Yes to make the decks stop playing at the end of songs, otherwise the decks just keep going on forever. Is there a way to save this so I don't have to keep going into the options every time to do it manually?

And what setting is that ^ ?
If KeepPlayingPastEnd is enabled, it wont stop at the end, but will keep playing infinitely.

Could it be a device oninit calling a session setting?

Right....it never used to be on by default. Tracks would end automatically when it got to the end, but now I have to go in every time and disable it. Anyway to make it disabled by default so I don't have to keep doing it every time I launch VDJ?

Just chiming in a bit here because a similar problem has happened to me before with a different setting (I had erroneously reported auto reset pitch on load as broken because it reset everytime)... I've noticed in the past that, somehow, on very rare occasions, the settings.xml gets into a bad state, where modifications do not seem to stay (it wasn't a permission issue either).
The way I fixed it (unfortunately) = making a backup of my current settings.xml file, removing it, restarting VirtualDJ (which regenerates a new settings.xml file with defaults), taking a diff of the changes between the new file and last version I made a backup of, then copying all of the changes I made, one by one across to the new file (ensuring correct syntax, no odd characters introduced, etc). I now make periodic backups of that file, along with the other regular things (music, etc).
It's not ideal, nor does it point to actual problem, but it's worked for me, and may be worth a shot.

I just tried this and nope...didnt work. I still have to go into the options and click No every single time to get the deck to stop playing at the end of a track. It's not THAT big of a deal and I can just keep doing it. It's just more of a pain than anything and it would be nice if it would remember the setting.

Actually, I just realized that this doesn't even matter when in HID mode and using Phase because at the end of the track, even if you have the setting set to stop at the end of the track, it just starts all over from the very beginning of the track in HID mode when your turntable platters are still moving. So whether it saves the setting or not means nothing at this point to me since I'm trying to adjust how I play going from DVS to HID.

I'll try that myself when I get home (I normally play with keep playing past end)....that sounds like a bug.

Check the ONINIT key of the Phase Mapping.
It should start with ... setting_setsession 'keepPlayingPastEnd' 'Yes' & setting_setsession 'keepPlayStatusOnLoadSong' 'Yes'
Remove only this part and you should now be able to manually set those Settings.
However, it makes sense for such a "controller" working on HID or DVS to get the Track Keep Playing after End. Because if not, the TT will spin but the Track will jump to Start and probably keep playing from there.

Didn't work.
