That's disableable, if you will. I don't remember if it's a default or not, but MusicIP can be configured to leave your tags alone and store everything, including its analysis, in an external database. I use the Picard Tagger for tagging and MusicIP for Mixing, and even allowing MusicIP to store its analysis in the file, it doesn't corrupt my tags Diana;166226 Wrote: > > I wonder whether the best solution might be to review whether you > *really* need MusicIP? I know that wasn't directed at me, but I gotta tell you, no MusicMagic = no SlimServer = wouldn't have bought a Squeezebox for housewarming/Christmas, from my perspective. Being able to make mixes the way MusicIP does was a must-have feature for me and my family to navigate through our library. While I'd like to see MusicIP beef up their API and headless operations, and would like to see the Slim and MusicIP products have better integration in general, my family essentially doesn't play music through the Squeezebox unless it's courtesy of a MusicIP mix. That's not to say that I don't listen to podcasts or internet radio or whatever on the Squeezebox, but when it comes to listening to *music*, MusicIP via SlimServer is how my family is listening. -- thing-fish [image: http://imagegen.last.fm/3line/recenttracks/thing-fish.gif] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ thing-fish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5288 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31141 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
