No metadata will lead to a group consisting of all the tracks without metadata. Incorrect metadata will probably lead to tracks being in a group of their own. If you choose to skip those, of course, then they will stay where they were. > Hence my question about running a second import to cover the left-overs of > the first one. That's a reasonable idea, yes! You could skip those left-overs and then import them later in a second pass. But you might want to use the `move` option, which will mean that the tracks you skip will be "left behind" so you can find them easily. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "beets" group.
