It is the "Play List" that is on the right side of the GUI.  It normally 
list all of the songs that are to be played after you select them.  I 
use the upper left side of Amarok 2.1.1 (openSuSE's amarok) Playlist 
<alt P> then Clear Playlist (blanks the right panel) then Add Media.  I 
then select the directory with the mp3 files.  It has about 1000 mp3s.   
Amarok only sees 20 of them.  I have tried using "copy and paste" and 
follow the GUI to "OK" <alt O>.   I have selected <shift A> and via the 
mouse - still only 20 songs
There must be a place in my /home where it is not being cleared.  This 
has been proven by a complete upgrade from version 6 to version 7 last 
night.
