| Summary | 0022102: Library scans duplicates depending on the path chosen in the Add/Rescan dialog | ||||
| Description | Depending on what paths the user chooses to add files to the Library, MMM will add duplicates. For example, by default the scan list contains /Users/<Username>/Music But if the user manually scans Home > Music --> /Volumes/Mac SSD/Users/<Username>/Music is added to the scan list and the entire library is duplicated! MMM should prevent this from occurring. Possible approaches; 1) Always add the shorter version of the path (preferred) 2) Change the default scan paths to the longer forms and always use the long form of the paths (less preferred since the path isn't fully visible and is more complicated for most users) | ||||
