Music imported to internal SSD problem

John_Calligan · January 16, 2019, 7:20pm

I recently installed a 1 TB SSD into my Roon Nuc and then copied and pasted my music files from an Airport Time Capsul that has 1 TB drive built in. The problem is some of the files have multiple copies of each song (usually 3 copies) on the file, but some files do not.

Any idea what happened?

Might want to put in detail what you used to do the copying.

Hello @John_Calligan,

Can you please post a screenshot of your Roon Settings -> Storage Tab? It should look something like this:

A screenshot of the duplicate albums would help as well and you can check to see if they’re in different file paths by Right Clicking a track -> 3-dot drop-down menu at the top -> View File Info. It should display a screen similar to this:

Thanks,
Noris

Here is a screen shot of the Roon>Settings>Storage you asked for:

Here is one of the albums with duplicated tracks:

Have a look at the file info on the duplicated tracks as Norris suggested.

Hi @John_Calligan,

Can you post some screenshots of the View File Info for those tracks as per my previous message?

Thanks,
Noris

Here are 3 screen shots of the View File Info for 1 song. Not all the album/files duplicate the songs. The files that do duplicate the songs sometimes duplicate them twice and other times 3 times.

Hello @John_Calligan,

I see that the endings for the files are different:
Free(1).aiff
Free.aif
Free.aiff

These are all different files, you may want to remove the duplicates.

Thanks,
