Looks like you do have COMPOSER in the Mixed Tag configuration, what I
meant with the previous comment was that if you have COMPOSER both in:
- Custom tag/(one of the fields)
- Mixed tag/Composer tags
Then you probably get duplicate composer entries in the menus and this
could maybe confuse the letter navigation.
The principle with Mixed tag configuration is that for each parameter
line in Mixed tag configuration the contributor roles scanned by
standard SBS scanner will be stored as the tags listed in Custom Scan
database.
So if you have:
- Artist tags: ARTIST
- Conductor tags: CONDUCTOR,ARTIST
- Composer tags: COMPOSER
It basically means that all ARTIST tags scanned by standard SBS scanner
will end up as an ARTIST tag in the Custom Scan database plus that any
CONDUCTOR tags scanned by standard SBS scanner will also end up as an
ARTIST tag in the Custom Scan database, but any COMPOSER tags will not
end up as ARTIST tags in Custom Scan database.
On top of this it also means that the CONDUCTOR tags scanned by
standard SBS scanner will except for ending up as ARTIST tag in Custom
Scan database also be stored as CONDUCTOR tag in Custom Scan database.
Finally it also means that any COMPOSER tags scanned by standard SBS
scanner will only end up as COMPOSER tag in Custom Scan database and
will not be stored as ARTIST.
This configuration for "Composer tags" looks a bit strange, usually you
want ARTIST to be part of "Composer tags" too.
My standard comment is that it's better to have COMPOSER listed under
"Composer tags" in Mixed Tag configuration and not mention it at all in
Custom Tag configuration. If you have it in both Custom Tag and Mixed
Tag you will end up with multiple entries of COMPOSER in Custom Scan
database which probably is not what you like.
I think there was some reason why some people wanted to have it in
Custom Tag configuration, but in this case I would suggest to not
mention COMPOSER in the Mixed Tag configuration, because else you will
end up with duplicate COMPOSER entries in the Custom Scan database.
