The tag editor trashed my .ogg files. Might also be an effect of some
vorbis tools, it does not happen any more.
The collection get screwed up, tracks show up with wrong artist.
The scanning process takes incredibly long. When I move an album folder
into another location, it takes quite a while for amarok to re-scan it.
And it does not respond during that time. System load gehts rather high,
even dolphin is slow then.
I have all my audio files in /data/mp3, with many sub-directories I
included in the collection paths, but amarok seems to scan the whole
/data/mp3 directory, with folders that are not marked to scan.
When I select a single folder somewhere else and let amarok rescan the
collection, all the other stuff is still in the collection. At least
sometimes, I just did that again and now it seems to work.
I had a few crashes also, when moving audio folders.
But I still like it. It looks really nice, I like features like the
wikipedia information or song texts. The bugs will be solved eventually,
missing features like transkode integration or visualization will probably
come. I am patient. Amarok really rocks.
