Duplicate tracks after editing metadata

One of the fields changed was "Album Artist Sort" which is an index field. I now see both the old and the new values in the index and when I select the albums I get the option to get the complete album I then see each track duplicated. I have restarted and refreshed minimserver and problem is still there.

Environment is minimserver 7.2 on QNAP arm. Control points seeing this issue Bubblesoft upnp on Android and Marantz MCR603.

Other albums are OK.

I would guess removing the tracks and re-adding may work but would be annoyance

Any ideas?

It sounds like your changes using Musichi might have saved a new copy of the album tracks instead of overwriting the existing copy.

To confirm this, you can try renaming the file extension of the audio file for one of the duplicated tracks (for example, from .flac to .flacx). After doing this, restart MinimServer. The .flacx extension will prevent MinimServer from scanning the renamed file. Does this remove the duplication for that specific track?
