all track double listed, other errors

[Thad Humphries]

Of the three errors I described, which ones does 2.4 fix?  The screwed up
syncing--listing tracks multiple times and scrambling track on various
artists albums--is a far greater problem that losing cover art in cover
flow.  I'd like to know because I'm getting weary of reloading my iPod
whenever I do something to it in Amarok 2.X.  (Oops!  A quick look at 2.4
tells me that tracks are still scrambled.)

Also, why does Amarok 2.X confuse podcasts with music tracks?  Podcasts I
load with Amarok 1.4 or with GPodder 2.11 become scrambled among my music
tracks once my iPod is opened in Amarok 2.X.  This does not happen in any
apparently consistent way.  Some tracks are labeled correctly, some say
unknown, some are grouped, etc.  Unfortunately NONE are playable because
Amarok 2.X does not yet support podcasts on my 5G iPod Classic (but Amarok
1.4 does!).

BTW, Clementine 0.6 displays my iPod tracks correctly (by correctly, I mean
the same way that Amarok 1.4 displays them).
