Bug Description
Binary package hint: amarok
Running:
Jaunty 9.04 fresh install
amarok 2:2.0.2mysql5.
libqt4-sql-sqlite 4.5.0-0ubuntu4
Problem:
When I try to import my old sqlite collection.db from Amarok 1.4 it only imports ~48 tracks from my 20,000+ collection. Sometimes it will import only 2 tracks and other times some arbitrary value but always less than 50. Some items show in the list simply as "Imported - ".
The scan then quickly completes and reports it has been a success. My collection.db works fine in Amarok 1.4 and I have even tried with some backups of the file I made over a year ago so I doubt the file is corrupt.
Reproduce:
Open Amarok. Navigate to Settings-
Ok after messing around a bit I seem to have found a work around for the problem.
Firstly use Amarok 2 to fully index your music collection. THEN use the collection import wizard to load in your old database. This seems to have done the trick for me although there is no way to know if it has imported all the data (ratings, play counts, etc) for each and every file...
