I've just rebuilt my library thinking it just go corrupted but the problem is continuing.

I have a lot of mp3 audio books and lectures with multiple chapters. I will load them into music then convert to audio book in the get info box so that I can load them into the Books app as audio books and use the other audio books features that are not available if I leave them as music.

this has been fine for a long while however during the past 6 months strange things begin happening. Suddenly random audio books will create multiple copies of themselves. Although there'll only be a single copy when I go to select it to load on my iPhone.

I've gone through the get information dialog boxes on ones that do this and ones that do not, but I can find no anomalies that could cause this. All the info like author chapter and so on appear to be the same, yet some books remain as a single instance and some books decide to make multiple copies.

Any clues.
