here's what freedb says about comps btw: http://www.freedb.org/en/faq.3.html#22
> 2.2. Are there any rules for submitting CDs to freedb? > Yes, there are: > > 1. Never submit info completely in capitals or completely lower case, > if there is no special reason for that. > 2. For bands that have a leading "the", simply leave out the "the" > (e.g. use "Rolling Stones" instead of "The Rolling Stones") (this rule > does not apply to "The The" ;-) > 3. Names of people should be written "first name last name" - NOT "last > name, first name". > 4. Use the name of the artist repeated on the "title" field if there is > no title (usually seen on an artist's first major label release, such as > with the B-52's) > 5. When submitting a CD-Extra, name the data-track "Data" or something > like that - do not leave the track-title blank. > *6. When submitting a sampler or compilation, you should include the > track-artist in the track-name, using the syntax "artist / track-title" > and set the CD-artist to "Various"* now, i don't see anything there or on their site about TPE2, but obviously they intend to mismatch TPE1 on comps. so what you said about gracenote was wrong at least vis a vis winamp, and while in practice freedb is a mess, the rules and intentions for it are to have TPE1 mismatches. -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 (primary) / SBR (secondary) / SBC - w/SC 7.3b - Win XP Pro SP3 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - D-Link DIR-655 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53718 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
