what you are saying doesn't make any sense. my tags aren't ambiguous, SC7's interpretation of my tags however is. simply assuming that any album with TPE1 disagreement is a VA comp in lieu of other tags is not a good system, and i would say useful only to people who don't care if it works how it was intended or supposed to work, but are happy with the output nonetheless, (like Sidhue). (thus why i say it should be left in as an opt-in option) i agree with you that using comp tags probably works fine. i say this b/c i haven't seen anyone complain about how SC7 uses comp tags. i also agree SC7 needs to know what is a comp, and what isn't. what i am saying is that the VA logic does not do this properly. it can not be counted on to discern which albums are truly compilations as currently implemented for most generic users and generic libraries. if you were a mp3 user using only 2.3tags, you'd see the problem. since you use comp tags, (which aren't part of the 2.3 spec) you don't. the easy answer is to just tell me to use userdefined tags, like comp, as a workaround. but that doesn't solve the issue for others like me, nor is it something i want to start doing as an additional step. its the VA logic i am calling to task, not the need for annotating comps or how SC7 uses comp tags. -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 (primary) / SBR (secondary) / SBC - w/SC 7.0.1beta - Win XP Pro SP2 - 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=47297 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
