iPod video updated to v1.2.2; Win2000 issues
Apple today released a minor update to its software for the iPod video. The company only said that the update brought "bug fixes" in its documentation, but some users report the ability to sync iPhoto Events (limited to recent events). Some users without latest iTunes 7.5 software on Windows 2000/XP/Vista machines may display no songs after the update, but updating to the latest iTunes -- not compatible with Windows 2000 -- resolves the problem for many; however, it appears that Windows 2000 must downgrade to version 1.2.1, according to a detailed posting on Apple's discussions forums that describes a method to "trick" iTunes into restoring with a previous version of the firmware (older versions are usually stored on startup drive).

It is the iPod Touch that was upgraded to software v.1.2.2.
My iTunes (v7.5) is reporting that the iPod touch is current and my 5th gen iPod is waiting to be updated and Apple's software update website (ax.phobos.apple.com) confirms this as well.
So my question is, is this bug now gone? Do smart playlists that evaluate to no songs be listed on the Pod? I ask because having to do a wipe and reinstall means a LOT of wear loading back all my songs (50G worth).
