Adding songs again?

I've noticed if I rip cd's with EJ, then for some reason have to rip using something like musicmatch or wndows media player then add songs
to the database I end up getting cd's I just ripped with EJ again in the newest songs list, thus dupping songs in EJ? This has ended up multiple
rebuilds to clean things up again.

Not sure I understand....Why are you ripping the CDs twice? Just rip the songs using eJukebox. Then the songs are automatically added to the eJukebox
database and are stored on your harddrive in the folder specified.

I'm not! that's my issue. what I'm doing here is say a cd doesn't come up with freedb.org's database, I'll then switch
over to musicmatch and use it to rip the CD. Then when I use the "Add new songs to the database" it brings a cd I just ripped using
musicmatch, of course as it should, but it also brings recent cd's I ripped using EJ in a second time, causing duplicates in the database.

Are you changing the directories at all after eJukebox has already added them?
If you're renaming them or moving them then this is probably why, as eJukebox has no way to know that the ones it has already ripped are the same
as the new directory you've placed them in..
Just a thought?

Good thought here, but no I'm not renaming them, moving them or otherwise touching them with musicmatch so I'm really confused here. I have
both programs put them in my music folder (c:my music{artis}{album}{track#-artist-track_name-album.mp3
