Duplicated empty album are present on Artist #1686

Closed DarkSwan86 closed 3 years ago

DarkSwan86 commented 3 years ago

Hi!

I have a problem with Cantata 2.4.2 on Manjaro KDE, there are some duplicates album inside my library that are "empty".

errorcantata

As you see on the image there is a duplicate album with an Unknown duration.

Cue files setting is "Do not List" so i don't think it's here the problem.

Cantata is using the default Music folder, inside there are only FLAC files, divided int Artist/Album folders.

Is is a regression? My database is corrupted?

Server version: 0.22.4, Cantata 2.4.2

If you need more information, just ask! Thanks for this fantastic software!

No idea, I get no such duplicates so this must be an issue with your setup. Do all these duplicate albums have CUE sheets? If so, does it happen to all the have CUE sheets, or only some?

DarkSwan86 commented 3 years ago

It's something about CUEs. If i change the extension from .cue to .cuexx for example and refresh the database is all fixed for that album.

I've also triple check that the option Cue Files is "Do not List".

I hope this information can be useful

Then this listing is coming from MPD. If Cantata is not listing CUE files it will not process them. I guess you have CUE files with multiple source files, and MPD sees both. Sorry, but not much I can do there. Have you configured MPD to use its CUE directory plugin? (Not sure what this is called exactly, but its a new MPD feature where it reads CUE files and passes contents on to client).

Anyhow, duplication must be comming from MPD.

Where i can find the configuration file of MPD to check this thing about CUE? Thanks!

Here is the CHANGELOG and there is a new change about CUE 0.22.4 roughly around the time that this bug has shown on Cantata.
