Strange database issue

(1/2) > >>

ken147:
I put podcasts in the podcast directory, but when I update the database along with the ones that i put in some other ones of the same podcast show up. if I delete the folder and put it back again the same things happens

any ideas?

AlexP:
I'm not sure I quite follow the question - are you saying that there are duplicates in the database?  If so, you likely have copies left in the recycle bin directory that Windows creates - try running the disktidy plugin.  If you have an ipod, it is possible that you have copies in the ipod_control folder if itunes transferred them at some point.

Once you have checked for this, recreate the database.

ken147:
it says that the files are located in "recycled"  ???

AlexP:
When you delete files in Windows it doesn't actually delete them, it puts them in the recycle bin.  This means it moves the files into a hidden folder called recycled.  Only when you actually empty the recycle bin does it delete them.

I did that but they didn't go away. they show up in a folder on the sansa called recycled
