minor bug- two folders with same name but different caps

Postby structurefall » Mon Aug 22, 2011 1:35 am

yo- i think i found a minor bug, wasn't sure where to report it so i figured i'd see if anybody else has seen it or whathaveyou.

my server is running on a centOS 5 box, and i discovered today that if i have two directories with the same name but different capitalization (Oingo Boingo vs. Oingo boingo, or Snog vs. SNOG, for example,) and albums inside each, the albums for only one will be indexed and displayed.

obviously this SHOULDN'T ever happen anyhow, but since CD rip data isn't always correct/consistent and in my case my library was coming in from a former iTunes library where i never looked at the files myself, it happens.

i ran the following to locate problem artists:

Code: Select all
ls |tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'|sort|uniq -d



...and then moved stuff around manually to fix it.


that's it, hope this will be of help to somebody for a future version...

Thats one thing windoze did get right - it cant happen.
I will try to think of another plus later :lol:

Due to the confusion from too many genres of music, we have decided to put both country music and rap music into the genre of Crap music.
