Ripping a CD on MMW 5.0.0.2256, the library doesn't always reflect the ripped tracks, even after a "refresh".

For example:
- rip CD with 10 tracks to mp3
- MM converts and levels volume
- MM windows show 0, or a subset of tracks, or sometimes all
- F5 refresh: doesn't change the screen

I check in Windows File Explorer, and indeed, 10 tracks have been written to the hard drive.

Restarting MM5 doesn't fix it.

What node are you in when this happens?

"Music"

So are you saying that the ripped tracks haven't been added to your library at all? If you search for them in MM are you able to see them?

Does this always happen (for every CD)?

It certainly happened on several CD's. And yes, searching found the tracks. My concern was the display.

But I think I found what's happening - a different, but less serious issue: the "Added" field is not always updated when ripped.

I was viewing the Music Node, All Tracks, sorted by "Added" to see tracks after ripping them. However, sometimes only a portion of the tracks were tagged with the "Added" field, and sometimes it is missing - thus they would appear differently if only some were tagged (when sorted by "Added").

FYI I do have auto-level set on rip, in case that's part of the issue.

And what value for Added gets the portion of tracks? Is this only refresh issue or the incorrect Added values are permanent?

Are you able to reproduce the Added problem with 2259? All my Ripped files have it. Is the problem that you have a blank value for Added or a wrong value. Please attach screenshots if it helps explain or capture in a debug log (step 4b) and attach that to a Support Ticket.
