MC uses the symlink path instead of the resolved path, for the exact reason I described before. So such a file will show in the library twice, but with two different filename fields.

But we have to check possibilities because what you are reporting should be impossible.  Google jriver stacks and jriver particles to learn what they are.

 :D
This is the case : I've never ever used neither stacks or particles. I've never even noticed those options of grouping.
I think we can cross out this hypothesis.

Scobie:
Certainly a weird issue.

Does this happen when you look at your entire library when you run an import, or does it also happen when you drill down to a single folder and import that?

Also what are your auto import settings? Do you have "Update for External Changes" set? And do you have a virus scan scheduled on your music folder(s)?

Yes, I agree, it's very weird  :D
I'll try to make more tests this weekend to see if I can narrow donw some hypothesis...

To answer to your questions, I only use "autoimport" and there is only one folder (always the same) which is looked at. Media Center is always active. I don't know about "update for external changes", I'll look for it tonight.

I don't have any virus scan scheduled on my music folder.

leezer3:
What filesystem?

I'm wondering if it's something more esoteric (BTRFS?) and MC isn't liking something like snapshotting.
