Duplicate and Missing Media Entries?

Hi,

I've recently made my own LinuxMCE box but I have been running into an issue where there's been duplicate entries on the same media and no entries for some media that I'm trying to find.
I saw this: http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=6852.msg42527#msg42527 but I couldn't find the forum post it referred to.

I have duplicates of ripped DVDs, and duplicates and missing entries for videos that I've copied over the Samba share. It's a list of video files that when I search for, only the first listed alphabetically is duplicated, and then the rest is listed later... but it gets cut short. When I go to the admin website, the media missing is listed as being both on disk and in the database.

The only thing I could think of that might be causing some problems is that I've installed LinuxMCE on a RAID partition using the alternate install CDs. If it's any consequence I've also had to upgrade my kernel because of hardware issues, and I followed the wiki http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Upgrading_the_Kernel.

Any help is greatly appreciated in advance,

- Eric
