    I having quite some issues with WMP12. It's not scanning all my music in my Libraries.

    Let me take you through what I did:

    First of all, I put about 30 artists worth of songs in a artist/album/song.mp3 format in the My Music folder, which consequently appears in the Music Libraries folder.

    I opened up WMP12 and watched it automatically scan my folders. Only to stop after just 3 artists. I checked to see what could stop it from scanning - nothing interesting came up. Formats are mp3, no terribly long names. It just stopped!

    So, I decided add the folders manually. That didn't work either. It just didn't add anything.

    Then I tried playing a song by double clicking - that worked, but it still didn't add the song to the WMP music library. Even though it's that Libraries folder which should be being scanned by WMP!!

    DURRRRHHH!!!!!!!!

    Is anyone else encountering this issue?

    On side a note, however, I'm loving Windows7. It's definitely got potential. They just need to work out a few kinks and it would be perfect!
