    Default Multiple listings of the same file when downloading from feeds

    I've got a few TV shows set up under my feeds that I got from TVRSS.net. I used http://tvrss.cjmart.in/ to "Boxify" the feed URL so that Boxee would read it. All is well and good. I can navigate to Video > Internet > My Feeds and see the shows that are available and download them. After downloading them, I clear them from my downloads screen and watch them from Video > TV Shows.

    At some point though, Boxee starts listing the same file over and over again. I've verified that there is only one file in the downloads folder, but the list of files under TV shows will list that file many times. Here's a screenshot of what is happening:



    Any ideas of how to fix it? Or should I just chalk it up to it being alpha software and hope that it's fixed in the future?

    I'm having what looks like the same problem, first starting with the 9.10 pre-release and continuing with the official release on March 24. It only seems to be making multiple listings for files which are in the local Boxee downloads folder, not for files that are on my network USB drive. For some episodes, I have 20 or more of the same one listed, for others it's just a couple. It seems to add more every time Boxee restarts. All of the duplicate listings for a given episode point to the same file, as well, so there's no duplicate files. Most of the files in the Boxee downloads folder are from a BitTorrent feed. For a while, I wasn't clearing downloads after they finished, but I went through and cleared them all tonight and it continues to create duplicates for new downloads. I think even episodes which I downloaded before updating Boxee to the pre-release version are being duplicated.

    Hope this information is helpful.

    Thanks. I'll try to move the files out of my Downloads folder and see if that helps until the problem gets resolved.

    Default Multiple listings of same show

    I am using Boxee on OSX and I'm having the same issue. But it seems to be with files that originally were .rar archives. This is what the list looks like




    And here is what you see when I select one:



    Notice the path at the bottom.

    I have removed all the .rar files and emptied the trash.

    Is there a way to remove the duplicates?

    Thanks.

    I was having trouble finding the correct movie info for a few movies, but each time I would go to "wrong movie" and try another one, it would keep the old one:



    ***EDIT***


    I left boxee on that screen (posted above, then when I went back about 10 minutes later, they were gone and only the correct one remained?! Not sure what it did, if it reindexed or what, but I'm going to leave it on another movie with multiple copies and see if it does the same thing.
