Some time ago there were some messages in this list concerning duplicate
cd's in a collection. One possible solution was burning a copy, but I
think I've found a way to to this without copying. At the time I didn't
have this problem but after getting my third player today I did.
The CD's are, if you're interested:
Pain Of Salvation - One Hour By The Concrete Lake     and
God's Favorite Dog - Hot Dog Season both have the same CDJID: 810E100B.
What I've done, after several failed attempts at solving this problem,
is this:
First make sure that neither of the two cd's is in your database, so
open Access and delete the records from both tracks and albums tables.
Then close Access and open CDJ look up only one of the two conflicting
cd's, this should give you the correct information from CDDB. Now close
CDJ and open your database in Access go to the cd you just looked up and
and a digit, I added a 1, to the number in the CDJID field, make sure
you do this in both the album and track tables.
Then close Access and open CDJ again, now look up the other cd, I think
have that you should not look this up in CDDB, I know I didn't, because
this might give you the wrong information. Just edit the information
manually. This way the CDJID field now has two different entries, one of
which CDJ couldn't make itself but does accept nevertheless. So now one
has CDJID 810E100B and the other 810E100B1.
I hope this solves a lot of people's problems.
