![]() ![]() apparently those are files that OSX creates to store info (such as metadata, i think?) that don't fit in. I am fine doing that as long as i know that after i do it, all the songs won't be "duplicated" yet again. I have resigned myself to manually rebuilding my audio library on my phone. The main thing is that this didn't happen until a couple months ago, if that, and the thing i need to know is why it's happening and how do i make it stop. There's no way i can go through and manually delete each "doubled" file. I have tried file detection apps (but i think technically these files aren't duplicates - different names and sizes). I have erased all the files, reformatted the SD card, started from a brand new phone, disabled the factory music apps. I have tried clearing the data in the Media Storage app. I have tried unmounting/remounting the SD card. I have over 200 GB in my iTunes library, so converting the files to mp3 or something else is out of the question (besides, it was fine until recently). They have always been this way, and as I said, no previous issues. Aside from cluttering up space, the fake duplicates don't play, and cause the shuffle function to stall, which is highly annoying. In the file manager it goes Music > U2 > The Joshua Tree > then all the original and "duplicated" files. In the Black Player app, they show up as unknown artists but within the album (so these would be found under The Joshua Tree, as a file by an unknown artist). However, all these so called duplicate files are ALL only 4.00 KB, no matter what song, album, or artist. For example, if I had The Joshua Tree on my card, within the The Joshua Tree folder would be all the files (01 Where the Streets Have No Name, 02 I Still Haven't Found) preceded by "duplicate" files (._Where The Streets Have No Name. Some time recently the audio files on my SD card started "duplicating." I say that in quotes because they technically aren't duplicates. I've used this method and app for a couple years, no problem. I used Black Player App for music, and I store my music on an SD card. I have an LG 3 Stylo Plus (but this was also happening on an old LG G4 as well). ![]()
