Try using browse by Music Folder and go to your the album's folder in the tree. If it's a new album it will be added. Although it may not pick up the album artwork - I can't remember if this has been fixed yet. This should also work if you've changed an album or tracks within the album. You may have to descend one more level to pick up changes in individual tracks. It's not perfect, though. A lot of times it will keep the old data instead of throwing it out, so you may still have two albums with the same name. If you fiddle with it long enough in browse Music Folder, by clicking on non-existant tracks, eventually you might clear out the old data. Even the new/changed scan doesn't always work well for simple tagging changes. That leaves a full clear/rescan as the only really reliable way to get the SC library straightened out. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49150 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
