SqueezeCenter doesn't organize your music, you are responsible for that. SqueezeCenter is designed to not modify your music files, you must use an external program for that. If you rely on the tags that EAC provides you will, sooner or later, find things that aren't right. There are very few tags from freedb that I get that I don't change for one reason or another. I have a very tight grip on my tags and have very few issues. As snarlydwarf alluded to about bad tags: garbage in, garbage out. MP3Tag is free and very easy to use. Grab a copy and have a look at your tags, you will probably be surprised. drs;401730 Wrote: > > Yes, I understand that Squeezecenter presents a web interface so it can > be used from remote systems, but does that need to preclude a reasonable > non-web interface from running locally, or via remote desktop? > The beauty of the web interface that it works on all platforms. I run SqueezeCenter on Solaris and the web interface is the same on Solaris as it is on Windows, Mac, Linux, or *BSD. It's consistency across platforms, like it or not. I personally don't care for the default interface, Fishbone works much better for me. There are limitations to using a web interface, mostly drag and drop playlist organizing. But the ability to use Winamp to make a playlist and have SqueezeCenter rescan only playlists mitigates that limitation (on Windows anyway). As for the incorrect artwork, try clearing your browser cache after a rescan. It's a very common issue for incorrect artwork. -- 4mula1 SqueezeCenter 7.3.2 + Solaris 10 x86: Because everything else would've been easy!
