Modern versions of SlimServer will only use ID3v2 if it is present, ignoring ID3v1. 6.3 and earlier would, I think, use both.

I'm a little surprised it takes so long to do a full clear and rescan on your system - I don't know what processor you're on but with 34,000 files here it only takes about 2 hours-ish on a 500MHz system, using Linux. -- gerph ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gerph's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1819 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29731 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
