I’m new and (gradually becoming a bit less) confused. I have scanned my 3.25TB music library. I get 16250 of what? Apparently albums. I do not have that number. Some have 6 or more duplicates. 2 of some is a possibility through internal back up but more than a few with 3 such is implausible. Could have 4000 albums. Long ago cracked the similar problem with iTunes. How do I solve this with Plex, including start again if that helps?
