Wow, good call.

The songs in the dupe album point to the location on a previous hard
drive where I kept music before upgrading to the 6.5 version.  That
hard drive is still online and accessible by the Slimserver, so Slim
doesn't appear to think anything is "wrong" or obsolete about that
location.

The songs in the "real" album point to the correct location.

So, it would seem by induction that the Playlists entries continue to
point to the original location of the song in the playlist (which makes
sense I guess since the playlist has no way of knowing the music has
moved and "re-pointing", does it?).  And since that location is still
available, the music is getting scanned.

An interesting conundrum - if you move you music directory, is there no
way to update playlists with new locations, or do playlists have to be
manually recreated?

Thanks for the great diagnostic direction!
