For example, Bill Evans Waltz for Debby has one album where all the tracks are listed and another album that just has the song Waltz for Debby listed. This happens with several more albums, but given the size of my collection its a relatively small sample, although I would like to fix the problem if possible. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

We may need more info. I have my music on a QNAP NAS. If I delete an album from the NAS (for whatever reasons) QNAP puts the album into a 'Recycle' bin that is located on the NAS. If I then put the album back on the NAS, Minimserver can see the 'album' and the same 'album' in the recycle bin.

I have had a few occasions when I have had to abort copying an album to the NAS. I will then delete the part-copied album, but it goes into my QNAP recycle bin. When I do the proper copy, I now have the whole album and a partial album (in the recycle bin), exactly as you describe.

I don't know if this is your issue. If it is, then the solution is to go to the recycle bin and delete whatever is in there.

I am using a Synology DS411slim and it has capability to enable a recycle bin but I had this turned off in my Shared Folder settings for My Music folder. After I enabled the Recycle Bin there was nothing in the folder and so nothing to delete.
