Multiple listing of same song within a given album

(1/2) > >>

taginmp:
I have 4 Sansa Fuze 8GB MP3 players that I also insert at 32GB external chip/card into the slot for extra storage.  I've encountered an issue where after selecting an artist and album then find the same track listed 2 or 3 times and find myself having to FF each track to listen to the next (different) track.  Really a PITA and results in me just opting for using the regular Sansa Fuze firmware that came with the player.  It doesn't occur on every artist or album, but enough that I really want to try and figure out what's the problem and fix it.  I searched the forum threads and didn't see anyone else post having this issue, so any help or direction I could be pointed to to troubleshoot would be great!

I don't use the database, but maybe it gets confused when you swap the cards?  Try rebuilding it and see if the number of songs is corrected.

taginmp:
Umm no thanks.  That's a 5-6 hour investment for something I'm not sure will even work.  Looking for a better less time intensive fix.

saratoga:
Rebuilding the database takes a a minute or so generally, and you can continue using the player while it happens.

I have seen the database catalogue tracks that windows put in the recycling bin.  From rockbox run the disktidy application and rebuild the database.


It's not exactly cooperative to deny rebuilding the database on the grounds that it's too much work when a rebuild is likely what you will need to do.

Otherwise use the file browser and likely forego all these problems.
