they show up as "& # 38 ""

Try this:

right click the file, and choose FILE INFO

See if you can tag it better...

it's showing up in the file name and tag when i do that.. but when i go look at the actual file, it is named/tagged correctly. they look fine in other audio programs also. only vdj is showing it that way. v4.3 didn't show them like that when i used the "file info", but 5.o does

I've just tried it again and they work prefectly fine with me.

Works fine here too... weird.. I just checked my "&" files to see if there was a bug

Same here, it seems to work just fine. Did you try to change the option in the browser to maybe file name only and then go back to read from tag or smart. I had some issues with tags and this simple thing fixed it. Maybe just a little gremlin that needs to be booted out.

@ dj Madd Max. I encountered the same thing. Somehow VDJ had a duplicate of the same song. One with the "&" which didn't even load(says error when I load it) up in the player & one that's fine. Somehow it's storing a duplicate file as corrupt.
Do a search & see if you have the same song twice. If not, maybe I was tipsy.

thanks, that may have been my problem. I did a new sweep of the database and deleted old "files". seems fine now

good to hear;)

it did it again, for some reason vdj5 keeps creating copies (of track using an &)in the database. The solution is easy enough, but a PITA
 

Mensajes Thu 23 Aug 07 @ 11:15 pm
Yeah, it's a PITA. But my comfort lay in the fact that the original file wasn't lost or corrupted. It's seems to be a bug but it doesn't really do harm to files. That's the good thing about it.

really?! does it duplicate "&" songs? Please try reproduce and tripple check.. havnt seen it myself, but maybe there a bug
 

Mensajes Thu 23 Aug 07 @ 11:19 pm
@ Norway, It doesn't really duplicate songs with "&" in them. It just duplicates a regular song & renames it with the "&" along with a other crap including the original file name, which is corrupt or something. I think this is only affecting people who have created a new database. I can't explain why. Might be wrong.
@Dj Mad Maxx, did you upgrade or did you create a whole new database?
 

Mensajes Thu 23 Aug 07 @ 11:21 pm
I do believe that i just upgraded. I noticed that a great many files needed to be re-analized and during this process the"doubles" seemed to appear

If you are willing to try this --
Start over and do the upgrade to build the V5 Database.
Immediately after the first launch - do a Clean, Clear, and Fix on all the DBs
Then shutdown and re-open VDJ

Do you still have the problem?
