Forum:	etree	Subject:	Auto-creation of ffp seems buggy

I've seen this in a few shows but wasn't sure why it was happening, then it happened to one of mine and I thought I'd post about it:

http://www.archive.org/audio/etree-details-db.php?id=30999

For some reason, the contribution engine doesn't seem to be recognizing "guster2005-11-11.ffp.txt" as a "Flac FingerPrint" - despite me noting it in the File Options popup as exactly that - so it's creating a separate file named "guster2005-11-11.flac16.ffp". The odd thing is that the new file's name is being taken from the last track of the show and is named "Jesus On The Radio".

Obviously, now there are two identical fingerprints with different names in the file directory. Any way to fix this? Should I just have ended the file with an .ffp extension, or did I do it correctly and the CE messed up?

I can see the issues you point out Dave, thanks for the detailed post. I have asked the engineers to read this and take a look.

ok, so an engineer restarted the workers in an odd way
which could account why it's not seeing that there's already
a FFP file format for the item.

as far as the display name goes, that's a neat little bug
with the dispaly code that i haven't seen before
(the _files.xml is correct, the display is not).
