I give up. I did not want to use my master SBS installation for the testing because a wipe and rescan takes 6-8 hrs and a CustomScan a couple of hours so I downloaded and installed a new copy of SBS and your plugins on another PC (same version 7.4.2 r29707 on both machines running Win XP). I configured SBS the same on both machines (Show year with album activated, same settings under My music etc.). In the CustomScan module Custom Tag I also made the same settings with only two exceptions: I checked the option Include in automatic scans and "Scan All" and I checked the Use raw MP3 tags option; under Various settings in CustomScan I had Yes for the two refresh options and the automatic rescan option (those options were set to No on the master installation). I then did a wipe and rescan and for good measures also a manual Custom Tag scan in CustomScan. The library consisted of a small set of files/albums I had just copied from my master library and changed the album names on (to descriptive names as regards the tags, i.e. MP3 VA TYER & TORY etc).
The result: For MP3 ID3v2.3 SBS only scanned the TYER tag! (As you remember, in my master installation SBS scanned both TORY and TYER but gave precedence to TORY over TYER.) Just to make sure that CustomScan did not in any way interfere with the regular SBS scan I uninstalled CustomScan, using the SBS plugin installer, and then after a restart of SBS did a wipe and rescan of the music library. The result was the same. I have no idea why the behaviour is different on the two installations. Unless someone can come up with an explanation, I give up the project. The chances of me getting a stable solution seems slim at best. If I only could get the title format to show the custom tag I would be sufficiently happy for now. Thank you, Erland, for all your support and patience! I do hope you continue developing. -- vagskal 2 x SB3 (wired), Receiver (wireless), Boom (wireless), Controller, iPeng on iPod Touch, muso on remote computer running Win XP | 7.4.2 on Win XP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ vagskal's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20778 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49483 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
