I was impressed when Windows Media Player 12 saw my Mediatomb UPNP server I use to stream video to a Playstation 3. "Now I don't have to use iTunes/mt-daapd to listen to my music library," I thought.
Then I browsed my music. I'm not exactly sure who is at fault, but either way Media Player is pretty stupid in that it has no way I could find to clear it's cache of what it thinks the UPNP server is offering. The only way to start fresh I've found was to go to C:\Users\%you\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Media Player and delete the files that start with "_HME_home" with Media Player not running. Next time you start Media Player, it should re-index all files.
What I can't figure out it why it presents so many duplicate entries unless I remove the artist/album containers that Mediatomb creates.
