File Stacking? Feature? Bug?
I believe I've stumbled upon a bug or incomplete "feature" in the Zune Software. This maybe something everyone but me knows about. But I recently decided to do some spring cleaning in my Music library, checking to make sure I had equivalent amounts of Files and Songs listed in the Zune Library. I stumbled upon an Album I had that was missing 3 tracks in the Zune Library. After figuring out which tracks were missing I attempted to figure out why they were not present in the Zune Library. The Files where �Mr. Brightside (Demo 1)�, �Mr. Brightside (Demo 2)�, and �Mr. Brightside (Demo 3)�. After spending frustrating days poking and analyzing the files for corruption and restarting my Zune database more times I could count I noticed that the files were showing up when played, switching between the three.

I decided at last that there was nothing wrong with the files, but yet the zune software. Just to make sure I grabbed different MP3's from another Album and stripped the Tags and manually rentered the information using MP3Tag and produced the same results. I'm not sure why this is happening. I was wondering if anyone could reproduce the same results. One thing I want to note is that I don't think this happens when the tracks have a track number value. This Album is something I've complied out of Singles and Demos and other odds and ends. Rather than have a million different Albums, I decided to Place them in one whole. I don't like have Track Numbers because the files are sorted Alphabetically when none are present, this makes adding new tracks less of a pain and neater. Lets just say I'm not happy but this has been a learning experience. ((Eye Twitches))
P.S. I Apologize if this forum has a policy against large photos. I'm also running 2.5
