Version: 2.1.90 (using KDE 4.3.1) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages I see some cases in which tracks are placed under the correct artist in the collection viewer, but when placed in a playlist, the artist is wrong. In the tag editor the artist is in fact wrong as well. After restarting amarok, everything is fixed. How to reproduce: it just happened after a new scan. I don't know a deterministic procedure to show this.
yes this is a known bug, it can happen when new tracks are added to the collection, so a rescan is performed.
(In reply to comment #1) > yes this is a known bug It is? :-) Never heard of it before.
isn't this the case where tags aren't refreshed after an update (messed up collection)? but after restarting amarok all is good?
Maybe, but if so it's a new cause -- I fixed the earlier one a while back.
Version: 2.2.1 (using KDE 4.3.3) Installed from: Archlinux Packages I can confirm this bug: When updating the library, some artists are shown with wrong tags (even in the library). After a restart of Amarok the artists are displayed right again.
A full rescan followed by a restart of Amarok solves that problem in 2.2.1. Can't reproduce this here with Amarok 2.2-git *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 214599 ***
