Hi,
When adding large folder trees of various file types (eg. in autoplaylist), CD images (as single .flac, .ape or .wv) tracks appear twice if a corresponding .cue is found.
I tried to restrict to "*.MP3;*.OGG;*.FLAC;*.MP2;*.WV;*.APE;*.MPC" in Preferences, Media Library, File Types but then only the single image file appears (and no more individual tracks).
This also affects statistics.
Is there a solution to avoid this problem ? a workaround (without having to convert all images to separate tracks) ?
TIA.

If all your cue sheets refer to single files you could change the extension of the file to .cue.* (* for whatever the file type really is). Then change the file refererenced in the cue sheet.
You can then add .cue.* to the excluded file types.

Your other alternative is to display both CUE and FLAC/MP3 files without clutter.
I have replied to this thread, how:

I always found this behaviour odd in foobar. I always thought it would be a rather simple task to add an option to hide files in the media library which are associated the FILE "tag" in cue sheets and add only the cues sheets.
The workaround of renaming files/extensions and then excluding those extensions is rather messy imho.
