I observed a similar problem with recent Rhythmbox on 12.04: Some titles or artist got merged for whatever reason, say 3 artists "a" "b" "c" turned into "a" "a, b" "a, b, c". Sometimes this would happen on the track titles within an album; in that case a character limit seemed to hit, so not even manually you can recover the correct title any more.
Any explanation for that behaviour? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022077 Title: Rhythmbox messes up ID3 tags Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: All my music is located on an external USB drive. In Rhythmbox music library location is set to ~/Music. In ~/Music I created a symbolic link to a folder on external drive (/media/external/Music). The USB cable I use to connect the drive to PC sometimes loses connection. After that Rhythmbox pauses playback because it can no longer read the file, but when drive reconnects again Rhythmbox rewrites ID3 tags of almost all the queued mp3 files.
