After struggling for *months* to figure out why Slimserver keeps showing some dupes of Albums, with non-sequential listing of tracks, I *finally* found the cause. My entire music collection is ripped to FLAC with EAC. For some reason, a few tracks in the affected albums included the "Discnumber" tag, whereas others did not. It turns out, neither Mp3tag nor Tag&Rename show the Discnumber field in their default view, so I kept missing the spurious ones. However, that column *CAN* be turned on in Tag&Rename (not sure how to do that with Mp3tag). Not sure *how* those tags got there, perhaps EAC pulled them off FreeDB. Now, after spending a couple hours "purging" my FLAC files of rogue tags, I'm *finally* getting a clean listing of Albums with Slimserver/Squeezebox.
