1511 Add/Rescan can put file under multiple paths [#10377]

Post by chrisjj »

1) Add/Rescan a User sub-folder e.g. http://img560.imageshack.us/img560/4792 ... betare.png
2) Inspect Location

Expected: file appears under scanned path only
Observed: file appears twice - under scanned path AND drive letter path:

EDIT: http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/4792 ... betare.png

This on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit.

This is expected per MM's longstanding behavior...

I don't see how longstanding excuses it. Many MM bugs are longstanding i.e. have been present for years.

How is this a bug? The file exists at both file paths.

I guess I don't understand why you'd expect that.

I don't see this done by any other Windows program, including music programs such as JR Media Centre. And I don't see this done by MediaMonkey on other files with multiple paths e.g. on network drives, SUBST drives.
