Music showing as audiobook in search results?
Why are all my Music search results found in Albums also appearing as Audiobooks in the results? All of the tracks/albums are correctly tagged as music genres, none are tagged as audiobooks.

Which Build (Help > About) are you using? Testing with the latest 2501 Alpha build of 5.0.2 I can't reproduce.

not sure this will solve your problem but have you rebuilt your db ... File->Manage Database. I have see similar very occasionally and a rebuild worked wonders
Where's the db and ini stored

Says it is current, but it is 5.0.1.2433, just installed four days ago.
Rebuilding data base did not change the results.
Guess I need to wait for a 5.0.2 update. Just an oddity, not a critical problem.
Still getting used to changes from MM4, rather not get into alpha/beta releases.

Re: Music showing as audiobook in search results?
You did a "rebuild", not an "optimise"?
you probably already know this, but "genre" doesn't designate music type.

Re: Music showing as audiobook in search results?
Yes, I did a rebuild.
I don't think I've ever paid attention to "type", never changed a type, and don't know how that value is assigned. I added a Type column to the main window, sorted both Music and Audiobooks by Type and found no tracks with an incorrect type.
Even if Type was incorrect, I would still not expect a track to show up as both Music and Audiobook

Re: Music showing as audiobook in search results?
I think that we are talking about different things.
I thought that you meant that the phantom books were appearing in the (MediaTree) Audiobooks node.
That node displays only database rows where Type = Audiobooks.
I looked at your diagram, and I now see that you are talking about a "Audiobooks" section, in Browser view I think .. ?
I don't have any audiobooks, so I didn't know that a separate Audiobooks section existed.
Agree, I didn't read what you wrote carefully enough.
Looks like you have found a bug.

Re: Music showing as audiobook in search results?
For me only the tracks with Type=Audiobook are show as 'Audiobooks' in search results.
To shed some light on this, can you zip/rar your MM5.DB and share it via eSupport ticket for us to analyze to see why it is happening for you? To see hwere your MM5.Db resides see https://www.mediamonkey.com/support/kno ... ini-files/

Re: Music showing as audiobook in search results?
This is happening to me too.
Whenever I run a search it shows me audiobooks in the search results (I have actually 0 Audiobook files in my library)
The interesting part is that it always shows me a number of audiobooks equal to
<Number of files in my library> x <number of albums in the search results>
So I have to avoid hitting 'show all #########' if i don't want it to crash.
