Help

Hi all,
I am new to Beets and I already love it …
I just import my library by using the docker version of it

after some time my library was imported but there were some files left behind and I am not entirely sure why …??

I will post my config below if anyone can help :slight_smile: please :slight_smile:

‘some files’, as in music files or others?

Have you checked the permissions of said files?

3

music files *.flac

all files have same permissions and all are FLAC

4

Maybe this is where I have something wrong on my config

Hi! Can you give us some specifics about exactly what the files looked like beforehand, what the import session did, and what the files looked like afterward?

For example, it’s possible that the match for that album had fewer tracks, so some songs were left behind.

I think the issue is

default_action: asis
duplicate_action: keep
incremental: yes

it looks like if i put it to ask and no then it asks for any files to be confirmed
otherwise it does as is and it leaves the file on the old folder instead of moving it .

Before path
./import_from/AC_DC/Live From the Atlantic Studios/Open.flac
After path
./Music_library/AC_DC/Highway to Hell-/10 - Night Prowler.flac

the before path has not been imported on the library but has the id3tag altered

it looks it does the job… i think the issues is as before default_action: asis
