Multuple entries in Music library
#1
Hi,
I use Dharma Beta 3 live cd, installed on HD, and observe the following problem:
When scraping my Music library (hosted locally on HD, but on NTFS partition), a lot of songs are shown twice in the album. It doesn't happen to every song/album, but to most of them. Those duplicate songs are also played twice when I play the albums.

Music database is stored on MySQL on another computer (with movies db).

Scenario:
1. Add new (and the only) source to music library. At this step library is empty. This source points to local share ("\\htpc\Music"). The same happens if source points to local partition ("/media/sda2/Music").
2. Scan the source to the library
3. Here you get duplicate songs.

It renders Music library rather useless for me.
Someone has any clue what happens here ?

Hi, old thread I know, but did you ever find a fix? I have exactly the same issue: xbmcbuntu, with music on local NTFS partition & end up with 1000's of duplicate entries??

remove the source and wait for it to complete then run clean library. close xbmc and delete your musicdb file in userdata.

start xmbc then re add the source and scan to library. it's the only viable way.

i did the same thing this week.
