Public bug reported:
I have RB 2.98 on my 32 bit Precise install (fresh install from CD).
After painstakingly correcting the ARTIST sort order for a decent number
of entries in the library, rhythmbox decides to throw that corrected
sort order OUT!
It will be "correct", until I quit rhythmbox. Once I re-open rhythmbox,
it goes back to what it was before. All of that time WASTED.
For example, Alicia Keys should be sorted as 'Keys, Alicia', putting her
in with all of the other "K's"; but, for some tracks, rhythmbox insists
that the sort order MUST be Alicia Keys, not Keys, Alicia. So what
gives????
I do not believe that it is a case of permissions, as I have rw
permissions on all files.
They type of file (flac or mp3) does not affect this, as it occurs to
BOTH. BTW, I just checked one of the "corrected' entries. Where "Keys,
Alicia" was supposed to be, it was BLANK!
Does this have something to do with the ID3 tags????
Or, is it some consequence of rhythmbox "watching" my library for
changes??
