I hit a bug yesterday that I thought I'd pass along in case it hasn't been seen before. I'm currently running 1.4.8.0a23 (x64). I have a TV show where multiple episodes are combined within a single file. For example, Star Trek TNG Season 1, Episodes 1 and 2 are part of a single file.
I have Ember setup to update the file names to insert the episode name at the end of the file.
In this case I originally named the file Star Trek - The Next Generation S01E01E02.mkv. When I updated my library, Ember saw the original file and renamed it to Star Trek - The Next Generation S01E01E02 - Encounter at Farpoint (1) - Encounter at Farpoint (2).mkv. However, it didn't update the database entries with the new filename.
The next time I ran a library update, it created a second entry of the episodes in the database, this one with the new filename, while leaving the original, now incorrect, entry in the database.
