Hello,

I've just ripped a bunch of CDs to FLAC files. Some of these are double CD sets. I use identical album titles and the DISCNUMBER and DISCTOTAL tags.

I've noticed that after a rescan not all (none?) of these double CD sets appear in my collection. On a full rescan with amarok -d I get messages like

amarok: [WARNING] [SqlScanResultProcessor] track "/home/florian/Musik/FLAC/Symphony X - Iconoclast (CD 2)/Symphony X - 01 - Electric Messiah.flac" with uid "amarok-sqltrackuid://mb-9daa84fd-0152-4a23-bf1f-9223fd0cd03c" already committed. There seems to be a duplicate uid.

There are no duplicate files.

From previous occasions I almost got used to these messages. Usually the tracks are imported into the collection anyways, but not this time.

How can I import these FLAC files?

Amarok 2.5.0

Thanks!

You can try to run the amarok_afttagger on the new directories and then rescan.

I assume that your cd ripper did create non unique unique IDs for the tracks

How is my CD ripper involved in generating UIDs for amarok? Sorry, I do not understand...

Ok, I'll try and run the afttager to enable embedded tracking (IIRC)

Two questions about it:

- I must rerun afttagger every times I added new files to my collection?
- If I do not rerun it, are the stats that are generated with non-embedded tracking are being taken over to embedded tracking?

Thanks!

Unique ID tags are a standard for a couple of audio file formats.

However I just realized that the offending unique ID is created by Amarok.
Just try the afttagger tool and see if that fixes the problem.

I am currently working on a large patch that should solve the problem (finally).

Ok, I did the afttagger stuff and all seems to work now.
