Hi,

Since I upgraded from beta5maemo2 to beta5maemo4 I get multiple albums displayed for the same artists. This also occured in beta2 if I am correct but then worked correctly in beta3. Is anyone else experiencing this too?

My understanding of how to cleanup all songs in your Canola2 database.

1) Go to Settings Menu (Click on the Settings Icon in main menu)
2) Media Library
3) Audio Folders
4) Uncheck ALL folders (click in the eye to remove the check mark)
5) Back to main menu (you will see the "Updating Database" message)
6) Back to settings and re-check the Audio Folders
7) Back to main menu.
8) Done

Hopefully this will resolve issues you have with multiple copies of a album where/when different artist have contributed to tracks on the album etc.
It seems to have worked for me and I am now happy with Maemo4 of Canola2 Beta 5 and my album art based views

MikeL,

Thx for your suggestion. I tried as you said but that didn't solve it. I also did the cleanup and reinstall, but no luck neither. It is not a big deal, but it is a nuisance since it worked well in the previous version.

Hi Nif : did you try the "multiple album entries?" it can fix also this problems, but we will take a look, I know it must be happening because we re-wrote the whole scanner. Is not finding more music but some old bugs could have returned.

let me know if " multiple entries" solves your problem, if not can you send 2 or 3 of the mp3s that gets duplicated? We will fix it asap if we find that is a problem.

BR

Right now (beta5), there is no support for this feature (restore position), but it'll be there on beta6.

Thanks

Handful,

Thanks for your feedback. I did try the multiple album entries, but it didn't show me any albums to consolidate.

No problem in sending you the mp3's, but what is the best way to do this?

Excellent!! I like to throw a couple recorded shows from my mythtv box on my n800 in the morning, but rarely have one-hour gaps of time to watch them in... this will be a *great* feature!

Thanks for the reply!

Hello there!
Im new to Canola 2, i just downloaded the beta 5 and i experience podcast feed error, but some other load with no problems.

The one that never loads is http://www.cadenaser.com/rssaudio/larguero.html, posting just in case helps to improve the podcast

HI Sombra, thanks for the feed URL that is failing, we have a "page" of testing podcast that we use as "proof" and I have added yours.

this will improve not only canola but the feedparser for python that we use!

Thanks again

Marcelo

One thing I noticed after using the clean-up tool for the past 2 upgrades was that My N800 would no longer recognize my networked shared folders...
The only way to bring 'em back was to do a re-flash and re-install C2.
Am I unique, or is there someplace else I should be looking for a cause?
