Hello Group,
Using my moms account as I don't have gmail and needed to get this question out. Been using Kplaylist for a number of years now but I am having an issue with naming & tracks being invisible & unable to play.
I have a number of directories that show up empty when you click on them to see the individual tracks. They all have music in them, and most tracks have at least their names & genre in id3 tags. There is no rhyme or reason that I can figure as I have some that are multiple cd's stored in one folder were the first two work but the third of the collection doesn't. I have others that are just one CD in a folder and I can't see the tracks. Some have just the track and band name others have the track number in the file name as well. I just can't seem to find the pattern that's causing issues.
None of these play, if I select the folder VLC will try and play but after a few second will kick out a stream of error mesages for each track in the folder. These are the only tracks that have this issue 3/4 of my collection shows up fine.
Can someone give me an idea of how to fix this and what to avoid in my naming of tracks so I can get better results in kplaylist showing them.
Thanks in advance!!!!

This one shows up as empty: /rock/Rolling Stones/Singles Collection- The London Years Disk 1/ |
Same naming convention, physical dir: 01 Come On.mp3 02 I Want To Be Loved.mp3 03 I Wanna Be Your Man.mp3 etc...
Here is a single album with hyphens & track numbers example that shows up empty:
/rock/60-70/Doobie Brothers/Greatest Hits/
Physical dir: 01 - Long Train Runnin'.mp3 02 - China Grove.mp3 03 - Listen to the Music.mp3 04 - Takin' It to the Streets.mp3 etc..
Any help would be appreciated. I will be trying suggestions If I don't immediately answer it isn't because I've given up I know this forum doesn't get heavy traffic and again I'm not on my gmail account.
Thanks!!!!!! DP
