    Default Music Indexing In New Boxee Version

    I have been using the latest boxee 0.9.11.5777 on intrepid and think it is a vast improvement over previous versions. Web-Videos seem to work more or less flawlessly on the videos I have tested.

    However, I do have issues indexing my Music. I know there are many forum entries on this (with no resolution as far as I can tell). But, now that we have new ubuntu, version I thought I'd start the discussion over; so that it is relevant to the new release.

    I have a music collection with files organized by Artist/Album/Song folder strucure. However, only a small number of my albums are resolved (21 / 260). Attached is the log showing the part of the resolving process and with a few failures.

    If go to browse my music, I can manually get Boxee to recognize the the unresolved albums, but this is tedious and it recognizes the wrong songs in the album that are in my collection.

    Any advice? Is there a particularly naming scheme for music files like videos I should try? Either way I think this could work better in Boxee.

    Here is promised subsection of the boxee.log showing some failed resolved entries:

    Default

    I thought I would follow up by saying that video indexing works almost flawlessly for me (providing I use the naming scheme). This suggests to me that there must be a naming scheme for music as well to get it to index better, but I can't find mention of one.

    Default

    Just installed the windows version yesterday and I noticed this as well...Not sure what the deal is...

    Some bands got indexed, but are missing albums, and some didn't even make the cut. My music is in the same structure as the OP Artist/Album/## - Trackname

    Anyone have fixes/ideas for this?
