File Exists == MISSING
« on: March 22, 2005, 01:02:56 am »

you need to click on advanced, and have it remove or fix broken links

What's a sample filename of a missing file? (from the Filename column in MC)

Thanks.

Just to be clear .. Ive even cleared the DB and reimported everything ...

Here are some examples of files:

REMOTE FILES
\\C11568-a\FireWire #2\MyMusic\3 Doors Down\Unknown Album\3 Doors Down - Unknown Album - 00 - Here Without You.mp3
\\Winxp-server\mp3\Newsrover\alt.binaries.sounds.karaoke\Processed MP-3s\sfmw805-01 - Technotronic -  Pump Up The Jam.mp3

IOmega Network HDD
O:\XYZ Videos\Copy of 11-08-02.mpeg

LOCAL HDDs
IDE HDD --
D:\MP3\Depeche Mode\Songs Of Faith And Devotion\Depeche Mode - Songs Of Faith And Devotion - 01 - I Feel You.mp3

SATA HDD --
E:\eXeem Downloads\finished downloads\Music\American Idiot\01 American Idiot.mp3

USB External HDD --
K:\03 - Romeo and Juliet.Mp3

NOTES: 
ALL OF THESE FILES PLAY FINE IN MC! 
This problem occurs on about 67,000 files out of 96,000 files in my library.
What's even WEIRDER is that if I just put the FILE EXISTS "Column" in there, the value for ALL 96,000 files is "Missing"

downloaded build 11.0.223 ... still having the same problem ..

My entire search string is:
[=FileExists([Filename])]=0

Did I type something wrong?

Just more info for ya:  If I change the field name from [Filename] to [Filename (path)] I only get 11,000 files (all of which DO exist) .. If I change it to [Filename (name)] I get 43,000 files (all of which DO exist).
