Description Eric Bourdon 2012-07-26 04:38:48 UTC 
When I change a tag, each of the following tags I change will become the first unless I restart rhythmbox.  New to linux, please tell me there is an easy fix.

Hi Eric,
Please provide exact steps to reproduce, click by click.
Which exact Rhythmbox version is this about, and which distribution?
Comment 2 Eric Bourdon 2012-07-26 23:25:41 UTC 
Thank you for the response, Andre,
It is version 2.96 that was released with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.  Basically, what I'm doing is importing .mp3 files into Rhythmbox by a simple drag and drop. As for changing the tags, I'd just right click on the file, go to properties, and changed the tags I wanted to change.  At first, I did a copy and paste of the file name to the title line, that's when I first noticed the issue.  When I synched to my player, all the files had the same title name.  I checked the file properties at the file location outside of Rhythmbox, and saw that is indeed what happened.  I opened Rhythmbox again, it showed all the files being named what I gave them.  I removed all the entries, re-imported the files, it now showed the mislabeled lines, and I tried typing them in individually instead of copy and paste.  I did this twice, once using the forward button to go to the next file, and then second time closing the properties window after each change.  Each time I removed, and re-imported the files, and each time produced the same results.  Whichever one I changed first, all of the following would receive the same tag.

May as well give my specs: I am using a Toshiba Satellite 2455-s305 that I bought in 2003.  Processor is a P4 2.4Ghz, 512Mb RAM, 60Gb HDD, and 32Mb Nvidia GeForce4 To Go that I have yet to figure out how to properly activate (I keep screwing it up, but thats another issue not related to this).

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but we are happy to tell you that the problem has already been fixed. It should be solved in the next software version. You may want to check for a software upgrade.

I saw that version 2.97 is available, is the bug still present in that one, or has it been fixed in that version?
