The file server which also runs SC has music files in X:\music\ This whole drive is shared, so the other computers see is as \\computer_name\x\music\ In order that playlists made in winamp on my laptop could be seen by SC, I tried having SC look at the network share rather than the local drive. But, even when it does this and the playlists only contain references from \\computer_name\... SC still sees a few random tracks in X:\. Get rid of all playsists, and it does not seem to matter whether it is pointed at the drive, or at the share, it only sees one copy. Moreover, the duplicate tracks do not represent what is on the playlist, which is the really odd part. A can put a whole album on the playlist and have only a few of the tracks show up as duplicates. Additionally, scan (and clear) the library twice and the duplicates are different each time. > Probably not.

The *whole point* of tags is that is makes it so that you don't need to organize the files. They should be able to be dumped in one big directory, or spread across the computer, or on 6 different computers, and the library, via tags, should organize them. What is the point of even having a relational database backend? How hard is "SELECT * FROM DB WHERE ALBUM_TAG = 'Thriller'"? -- drs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ drs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3536 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60755 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
