[slim] Re: Uh Oh, A problem

Thanks for the response. Can you tell me how/where to do this script? I'm not familiar with how to do that. In addition, would the script change depending on the file format? I have encoded to FLAC, does that change the script? Thanks again. -- WrightDawg

[slim] Re: Uh Oh, A problem

Well, unfortunately for me if that's the problem it's not a fix for me. I don't have any playlists set up at all so that isn't my problem. I tried just about everything I could think of last night (uninstalling SS, clearing the folder to search for music, rebooting etc) and nothing so far has

Try manually stopping slimserver, and deleting the C:\Program Files\Slimserver\Server\Cache folder and then restarting slim. After the full scan is completed, see how things look. -- MrC MrC's Profile:

The fact that it doesn't add *an* extra copy of everything but goes up geometrically (2,4,8) implies that it is reading it's own information again and doubling all of it each time. So tell us what you do when you uninstall SS. And after you've uninstalled, what is left? It sounds like

Nope not using ITunes. This is totally out of left field as this just happened last night. Before then, everything was working as it should. Again, it's not doubling the albums per se, what it's doing is listing the same album multiple times, but with only a few (1, 2, 3 etc) songs in each

Unfortunately clearing the server cache did not help (I tried it twice just to be sure). So perhaps downloading 6.5 is the way to go? In addition, just to make triple sure it wasn't the tags I opened up yahoo music and Quintessential player and both are showing everything correctly, just one

I just did moments ago. I had tried doing another clear and rescan and this time it duplicated the problem, so instead of having 4 of the same album, I went up to 8 of the same album. After installing the software and scanning my library I still have duplicates of albums. What is happening
