A single track, duplicated by TagCache

Llorean:
You've not established at *all* why you're 100% certain they point at the same file. Nowhere in here did you describe any testing that actually checks what file they point at.

xlarge:
Check the possibly hidden possibly present "recycled"-folder on you dpa.

Chickenhead:
Well yes, I thought I had.  To recap:

- loaded the file, rebuilt the database.  I have two entries named the same in the Artist->album view for that album.
- erased the file, copied it back up with a different file name and slightly different track name, rebuild database

End result, two entries...one with the original title, one with the new title, both pointing at same file (as far as I can tell, since they both play the file and they both say the name of the file before playing on screen).

Is there a better way to tell?  Is there a way to manually dump the tag cache database to see what it thinks is there?

(Recycled file?  I'll check..didn't know there was one).

Llorean:
The better way to tell is the VERY FIRST SUGGESTION I MADE. Put them both in a playlist, save it, and look at the playlist in something like a text editor to see if they both point to the same file.

Your method in *no* way guarantees they point to the same file. If they pointed to two different files with the same filename, the exact thing you're describing would happen. You could be right, and you could be wrong, and I'm really not understanding why you won't just take that simple step to check it.

HorstIriver:
The better way to administrate this forum is to NOT SHOUT AT PEOPLE who either have problems with Rockbox or try to put you on the right track. Maybe you are a top expert of Rockbox - but I doubt you are the right guy for the forum. Your nerves seem to be not strong enough for that task, maybe because you are too deeply involved in Rockbox. Try to get back to a normal, civilized way of communication, or try to find someone else who handles the 'front-end', i.e. the  forum for Rockbox users.
