the playcount from itunesDB file,why? can you help me?

my code like this:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <glib/gerror.h>
#include <glib/glist.h>
#include "itdb.h"


int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{

GError *error=NULL;
Itdb_iTunesDB *itdb;
gchar *infile = "D:\\C++\\TestIpodDevice\\TestIpodDevice\\iPod_Control\\iTunes\\iTunesDB";

if (infile == 0)
{
exit (0);
}

itdb = itdb_parse_file (infile, &error);
printf ("%p\n", itdb);

if (error)
{
g_error_free (error);
error = NULL;
}

if (itdb)
{
printf ("tracks000: %d\n",itdb_tracks_number(itdb));
printf ("tracks: %d\n", g_list_length (itdb->tracks));
printf ("playlists: %d\n", itdb_playlists_number(itdb));
printf ("playlists: %d\n", g_list_length (itdb->playlists));


GList *it = NULL;
for (it = itdb->tracks; it; it = it->next)
{   
_Itdb_Track *track = (Itdb_Track *)it->data;
CA2W  wTitle(track->title,CP_UTF8);
CT2A title(wTitle);
CA2W  wArtist(track->artist,CP_UTF8);
CT2A artist(wArtist);
printf("%s - %s play count:%d\n",(char*)artist,(char*)title,track->recent_playcount); //track->recent_playcount always zero!!
}
if (error)
{
if (error->message)
puts (error->message);
g_error_free (error);
error = NULL;
}
}

itdb_free (itdb);
return 0;
}

Please note that recent_playcount is only set if a track was played
(completely) between the last sync and the readout.

There could be a bug as well, of course.
