Rescanning everything made no difference Previously, for the Cee Lo album, I had removed all the tags with mp3tag, and then recreated them from the filename and some manual input. Mp3tag describes the tag type as IDv2.3(ID3v1 & ID2v2). I changed mp3tag options to write only APE tags, and then clear and rescan. mp3tag confirmed the tags were APE but LMS thought they were ID3v2.3.0, ID3v1.1. ?? Anyway the rescan didn't cure anything , and the file path still started with a // Next step was to copy the album files to another new album folder, and delete the original. Success!. This also fixed the John Legend album, which is actually Flac, so it wasnt an mp3 only issue. I have played a few tracks from the JL album, and checked the Play count is now 1. I have rescanned, half expecting the problem to re appear, but it didn't. So my library looks OK again now. Thanks for all the help.
