My music files are on an external HDD - I now have two entries in the Audirvana library, one greyed out as unavailable, one active - ie: all tracks duplicated (see screen shot). All these files play in sequence. When I deleted the libraries, the greyed out files remained, and they could all be played. This is bizarre. Rescanning, resyncing, rebooting, etc. do not fix the problem. Any solution?

Same stuff here, got a few albums that appears twice in the library, once greyed out and once “normally”…
Yes, I’ve done that. The problem remains.
Somehow, the library file has been corrupted in one way or another (as is usually the case with duplicates). I removed the current folder and, just to see what would happen, I synced to my NAS, which I use for backup. After syncing, all albums were duplicated (one active, one greyed). The only option was to delete the library file and sync monitored folders again to rebuild it (not something I’d like to do, with over 2TB of audio files to sync, and the loss of playlists). Now, when the SSD is ejected, all audio files are greyed; when remounted, they are white (with no greyed duplicates).
Thanks for looking at this. And keep up the fine work with Audirvana. But the audio library is delicate creature and needs to be treated with much tenderness. If only there were some way of troubleshooting and/or editing it.
Hello @gfburgess, unfortunately you will have to delete the database as the duplicates will still remain if you don’t do that as they are memorized by the database.
