For what it's worth, I set both the music folder and use MIP because I
have found that MIP will not pick up filenames with accented
characters, but SS will. I believe that this issue has been fixed with
the windows version of MIP, but I am using the linux version.

I've also noticed that strange things can happen if I update tags (and
I had to clear all ID3v2 or below tags that were lingering on a few
mp3s, although I mostly have a flac collection). Generally if I get MIP
to do a refresh as well as doing a rescan things are sorted, but at the
moment I'm stumped by one album. The album is by Psychic TV and
originally the mp3s were tagged as Psychic T.V.. I changed this for
consistency with other albums but no matter what I do, I'm getting two
artists in SS for every track on the album: so it displays, for
example, "Botanica by Psychic TV and Psychic T.V. from Dreams Less
Sweet". Examining the tags closely with mp3tag, I'm convinced that
there are no tags with "Psychic T.V.", but a search on MIP always comes
up with "Psychic T.V.". I've tried moving the album off the server,
refreshing MIP and then putting it back and adding new music, but no
joy. The only thing I haven't tried is deleting the whole cache and
re-validating (reluctant to do so with >10,000 tracks as it'll be very
slow!).

Anyway, sorry for getting a bit side-tracked there!
