Question

Multiple Copies of albums in my SONOS Music Library

I have managed to reinstall my Music Library held on a Toshiba Hard Drive so SONOS is now picking it up.

However, in most cases, up to 20 copies of each album are showing on the SONOS S2 app. some copies with either no tracks listed, or some copies with a few tracks from the album , and a few different tracks on another copy!

Clearly I have done something wrong!

Any advice on how to correct this situation would be helpful!

Kind Regards,

    MoPac - thanks for the Folder suggestion.  I didn’t even realise it existed.  I’d been hoping the album presentation issue would be solved in 16.3.3 (build 80156190) which came through yesterday, however it’s still listing each song in an album as if it were an album itself, instead of having the regular parent/child relationship you’d expect for an album and its tracks.  Maybe next update …

    Yike! this is a terrible, terrible bug. They put out a new version after over a month and they didn’t fix this??? That’s….. insane.

     You can still use Folder view to find your compilations intact.  Because I am a big fan of classical music I learned to make the Artist & Album Artist tag exactly the same    ( last name of the composer ). Imagine the mess 16.3 would have made of my library had I not done tagging that way.

    I went down  the folder route too. Hope SONOS sort this debacle out soon..!
