Thanks Rex, I'll keep that in mind. However I had a brainwave in the meantime. It turns out the ID3 tags on the new material were incorrect, so Amarok was showing the files in a different part of the forest. Amarok is declared innocent until further notice.

Thanks again to all who tried to help, and apologies for the noise. poc _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
