I just upgraded to MM4 Gold. I added some flac files to a directory and did an add/rescan. It didn't pick them up. I verified that the flac files are actually in the directory indicated, and that under "file types", I have "flac" selected. I tried, just for grins, added a .m4a file to one of the directories with all of the flac files in them. It did pick that one up. Why is it ignoring my flac files when I'm telling it to include them? It didn't do this when I had MM3 installed.
----------------
Update... it is adding them to the library, because I can use the search and find them... it just doesn't display them in the Location tree. I'm looking back to other directories that currently exist and were displayed in the Location tree in MM3, and now the the inclusion is spotty (i.e., many directories missing from the display, but some still there, including ones with solely flac files).
-----------------
Further update... okay, the problem is it split my music into a "music" collection and a "classical music" collection according to some criteria that I'm not aware of... that's screwy! But looks like the files are all there. I don't want them split in this way, so I'll have to figure how to join the collections...
