Duplicate listing for every file??

MaxBurn · 16th August 2012, 12:23

I copied my whole music folder from itunes over usb to my phones memory card and installed winamp. Winamp sees two of EVERYTHING when there are only one of every mp3 file. In winamp the first listing for something does nothing at all, it can't play it. Only the second listing for an item works.

How do I get rid of all the duplicates? Clearing winamp cache/data and reinstalling it didn't help.

A clue: the default music player app that came on the phone also shows two copies of everything and the first one doesn't play either.

Are the same files being referenced twice somehow??

Samsung note i717 4.0.4 stock no root.

After I realized this wasn't a winamp problem:

Same problem was with mine. Just go to application manager> all application and search
-media storage,
-music player,
-gallery application

and just delete cache and data and restart. It will solve the problem a it force to re build data base

Try deleting the *.m3u file in the current folder, and the duplicates should disappear. Winamp loads the playlist in the current folder, in addition to the files you're adding.
