Serveral Various Artist CD not showing up

[jll1234]

Well I figured out how to fix/work around the problem.

1) shut down MM
2) Moved the directories containing the 'missing' CDs to a different (non-monitored) drive
3) Start up MM
4) "Maintain library"
5) Shut down MM
6) Move CDs back
7) Startup MM, and all CDs are present

I also found out how to cause the problem. Once all my various artist CDs showed up, I saw one had a misspelled album name. While in MM, I selected all the tracks in the album, and edited the album name in the properties, and the album stopped showing up under various artists.

One issue that can cause files to not show up is when they're set to be hidden. MediaMonkey respects the hidden attribute and ignores those files.

But moving the files from one directory to another directory, then back again, would not change any file attributes, and neither should changing a album name via the MM property editor.

A debug log as described in the Bug Report forum could give the developers an insight as to what is happening. Might be a case of a corrupted database.
