Database Questions

[Pi3.something]

Question 1: Is there an easy way to delete duplicate songs?
Question 2: How come songs lose their connection within the database? I will have played it a week before, not moved any files, but the database has lost the connection.
Question 3: How can I move songs and hold keep the connection with the database

Please be kind, they are sincere questions I have had for at least a year.

Question 1: Is there an easy way to delete duplicate songs?

Music Library does not add duplicate songs. But if you have the same file in different folders, it's considered as different music files. There's no option to find such duplicates in Music Library.

Question 2: How come songs lose their connection within the database? I will have played it a week before, not moved any files, but the database has lost the connection.

I'm not sure I understood this one. Songs can't be connected to the database, it's database that contains information about songs. The data is tied using file name so if you rename or move the file to a different folder, the data will be "lost". You can move/rename files from within Music Library in this case it'll update the database with the new path.
