AtomicParsley left "temp" file in output directory

user-2091

So this is what I mean: https://i.imgur.com/rxAw0eW.png

I've had this a few times before and I'm wondering: has this programme downloaded twice fully?

This is episode two of Together (pid: b06hgxvp)

Clicking on either file shows that they are both 483MB which is fine but is one of these not a complete copy (if you know what I mean; could I delete the "wrong" one and not have a functioning copy)?

Anyone know why this happens?

AtomicParsley either failed to complete tagging or was unable to move its temp copy back to the original file name. If the temp copy is complete, use that. If not, re-tag the original file.

I see, cheers.

I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean by 're-tag the original file'?

Could you explain how I do that?

(If I need to given that the original-temp file works fine)

I was getting a similar problem. I think it turned out to be caused by Google Music Manager scanning the get_iplayer download directory.
