Problem : I'm playing an audio book that has very few ID3 tags. The file names are in this format :
Part1_track001.mp3
...
Part2_track001.mp3

If I look in the ID3 fields there is only a id3v1 tag for Track Name and it lists "track001" for both of the above files. The Album name is different on the two files, "Part1", and "Part2".

In the android client, the UI correctly has the files listed separately, but when I click on Track1 / Part 2 the audio for the 1st part comes out!

Workaround : I redid the ID3 tags so that all the track names are unique.

This seems to be a bug only in the android client.

I agree that sounds like a bug, but fortunately Subsonic's tag editor makes that real easy to fix... click the "Edit Tags" button, and hit the "S" at the top of the Track Name column and Subsonic will suggest names for you, and most cases that works fine...

HTH,
