About the import issue: I did look at what you'd written before and as I said, it didn't help, at least as far as I can tell. I still don't know why songs would import into the library somewhere, classical collection or otherwise, and yet I'd still get a message saying no files were imported. All of the audio types are checked in the add/rescan, and none of the files are hidden or in any other way weird; they're just plain old mp3 files sitting in folders in my music folder that is being monitored and scanned and still, for some reason, they are invisible to MM. This really shouldn't be so freaking hard, you know?
As far as checking duplicate paths, at this point they're gone, I can't see the paths. Maybe that was the issue? But you said "If they don't you won't get duplicate notifications nor will cleanup work." I'm a little unclear what you're saying. I went to the "remove duplicates from playlist" option and it showed a bunch of duplicates. It asked if I wanted to remove the duplicates, I said "yes", because I didn't actually want duplicates. How many people do, I wonder? It didn't seem to work at first, because I could still see a number of duplicates. So I did the "remove duplicates" thing again, and it again showed a bunch of duplicates and asked if I wanted to get rid of them. I still did want to, so I said again to Mediamonkey "yes", meaning "yes, I would like to remove the duplicates, dammit, that's why I already went through this rigamarole, why the hell didn't you do it the first time I said 'yes' ?" And then, the playlists were totally empty. I thought I must have done some weird ctrl-click something. There are absolutely zero songs in two playlists that were 8gb + before.
