I've followed your advice and ditched my MIP fingerprint and data tags from all MP3s. I stopped both MIP and ML and then rescanned everything to hopefully clear the corruption. Then I've restarted MIP and ML, and slim is in the middle of a rescan again.
I think you're right on both counts - the MIP fingerprint and data tags are having an impact, plus MIP and "special characters" are a bit of a problem. I've been scanning through some of the posts on the MIP forums, and both the extra tags and special characters were mentioned a couple of times. For the record, I'm also seeing blank squares in some of my tracks - notably those with special characters. These would also appear to be the same tracks where the year tag suddenly disappears. (Though the year tag problem has also happened on "nomal" tracks) -- gutted http://www.last.fm/user/gutt3d/ Slimserver 6.2.2 +MusicIP Mixer 1.6b2 +MoodLogic 2.7.1.18 +AlienBBC 1.02a +Slimscrobbler 0.34 Windows 2000 Professional sp4 Intel Celeron 1.4GHz 512MB RAM Squeezebox 1 wireless (Player Firmware Version: 40) Library of approx 6300 MP3s ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gutted's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=147 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23917 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
