TagCache displaying same songs twice
« on: September 14, 2006, 08:53:06 PM »
I really can't find a pattern to this, so I can't give a finite way to reproduce this (i.e. number of songs in an album, etc.), but I can explain it.

When I build or rebuild the tagcache, several songs will be displayed twice, yet, it's the same file. This doesn't happen to every song, and the problem is album specific. Either all the songs in the album will be displayed twice (or in some cases, threee times), or everything will display fine.

For example, I've got several albums by John Williams. The tracks in the Star Wars albums will display twice if I look at said albums, or view all the tracks by John Williams, however, the other two albums (Jurassic Park and Memoirs of a Geisha) display fine. None of the tracks are displayed twice.

However, there's several artist/albums that show up fine with no problems.

FS#5594 has a bug entry that's similar to this problem, but not entirely.

Anyway, if anyone could help, it'd be nice.

This problem was supposed to be fixed. What build of Rockbox are you running? (Build date, and if you're using any patches).

20060912.

The only patch applied is a scroll margins patch, and my own handiwork in changing the position of the statusbar.

And if you save the playlist and open it up in a text editor, do the repeated lines point at the exact same physical filename?

I presume you know about the DiskTidy plugin? That will sort you out.
