Description gnome.vrb 2014-08-14 14:45:30 UTC 
I was trying to import a lot of songs ( approx 2000 ) into rhythmbox. Rhythmbox populates all song information in a GtkTreeView ( Refer attachment ) before importing. During that process, GtkTreeView was displaying the same entries in the view multiple times. After a mouse hover over the entries, the range of rows which were hovered over, were updated to the correct values.

This is quite undesirable and confuses the user, as the view is the primary front end for the backend data.

Comment 2 gnome.vrb 2014-08-14 14:48:44 UTC 
I tried it with rhythmbox on the latest GIT master ( HEAD was at f09573757df07700b0510945c8bcd83171bd3a79 ). 

Still the issue persists.

Comment 4 gnome.vrb 2014-08-15 17:03:58 UTC 
GtkTreeView is updated properly, and this issue is not seen if rhythmbox is started with the following env. variable set:

export GTK_DEBUG=no-pixel-cache
Comment 5 gnome.vrb 2016-08-30 18:26:43 UTC 
Issue still exists in 3.20.9.

Just an update.

Affects me too. Is there anything we could do to increase quality of the report?
