Title: Artists not being added to Musicbee library when scanning.
Post by: camerojl on August 13, 2015, 03:51:02 PM: I have all of my music files stored in the same place in my documents, but when I scan in that folder into Musicbee the first 30 or so artists just do not appear. There's no error message or anything, I'm just missing a load of artists from the beginning of my music. There are also a few other artists dotted around my files that Musicbee is not picking up either. I have the latest version of Musicbee too.

(and could an administrator move this topic from Bug reports?)

If it defaults to the Inbox, maybe this should be changed so that new users can familiarise themselves with MusicBee's scanning processes etc. before deciding whether the Inbox functionality is something they want.
