Bug Description
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
I'm using Hardy Heron, but I imagine this will be true for all Rhythmbox. To replicate this bug do the following.
1. Put a CD in the computer.
2. Open Rhythmbox
3. Before importing the CD change the track number of the first song to 2 by using the "Properties" editor.
4. Import the first song.
What you get is an MP3 with the title, artist, etc... of the first track on the cd but if you try and play it you'll discover its actually the second song on the CD.
There are two (or possibly more!) solutions. First, don't let people change track numbers for songs on CD's. This makes a lot of sense because you can't actually change which track a song is. OTOH If you really want to be able to change the track number of songs before you import them then Rhythmbox is going to need to remember which songs correspond to which tracks on a CD, even if their track number is changed in the properties window.
