Tagcache ignores certain folders\Tagcache freezes\Tagcache messes navigation up

Llorean:
What do you mean 'moved it to my music folder'?

Moving the folders around on your player shouldn't make any difference (unless their filename including path is too long).

cal:
Here's what happened:

I moved one of those folders (Joni Mitchel) and selected 'Update tagcache'.  Waited 5 minutes then checked the info:
Initialized:Yes
DB Ready: No
RAM cache:
RAM:
Progress: -1% (20187 entries) < i don't have 20k tracks

I turned it off/on. And this is what I got
Info:
Initialized:Yes
DB Ready: Yes
RAM cache: Yes
RAM: 915008/948096 B
Progress: 16% (it's working)
Commit step: 0
Commit delayed: No

Artist:  Now, only two artists show up:  The postal service and ....  Joni Mitchell  ???

What I don't understand is that the Joni Mitchel folder was ignored and the Josh Ritter at the same level was read and added to the database.

PS.
I keep all my music in 9 global genres, i.e. > MUSIC/BLUES-FOLK-INDIE-POSTROCK/J/Joni Mitchell.  So I moved /Joni Mitchell to MUSIC and it was added.  But as I said other files at the same level are added:  Josh Ritter.  But I don't think that path is too long  ???

PS2.  Thanks btw.

Llorean:
I don't think the folder name is too long (I could be wrong). The num ber of entries in TagCache is always greater tha n the number of songs you have (in my experience) and I'm not exactly sure what it relates to.

Anyway, when you tried to rebuild it after moving the folder, did you "Update" or did you do "Initialize Now" to recreate it?

cal:
Update

Right now it's at 97%.  I'll wait a few minutes and see if it changes to anything.

cal:
This is weird:  I rebooted the player and moved the folder back from music, to where it was before.  I can't select 'update' so I select 'initialize'.  The player freezes twice.  I reset the player and go to tagcache information and I see that it's tagcache is scanning the files but the DB is ready.  I go to artist from the ID browsing window and the same two folders are showing up.  And even though I had moved the joni mithchel folder, I can still select the songs and play them.  So I guess that's good.

I'll wait until the tagcache is ready and do the same with the other folders.
