hi, i use the "multiple artist tag character" option from the server settings menu - sorry i don't remember exactly where that field is, but is on the server settings pages, somewhere. :)
i use the semi-colon as my multiple artists separating character. what this character allows is an ARTIST tag like the following: ALBUM="Dark Side of the Moog, Volume IV" ARTIST="Klaus Schulze;Pete Namook" now, when slimserver scans your library, the album will appear under all artist's names, and all artists will appear under the album's name. the downside is that you must GO BACK to your flac files after creating them, and re-tag them! there isn't a way that i know of to inform flac beforehand to construct an ARTIST tag in this format. to re-tag, you need to either become friends with metaflac, the program that operates on flac files and allows re-tagging, or use a GUI-based tagging program. i simply call metaflac directly, and have it re-tag files that have multiple artists before a rescan. hope this helps! if anyone knows how to prevent the going back and re-tagging, please post it here! i could certainly use the education. :) best, -sherm -- shermoid "you are only young once, but you can be immature forever" "life is uncertain; eat dessert first" - anonymous please visit my mcintosh website: http://alumni.cse.ucsc.edu/~sherman ------------------------------------------------------------------------ shermoid's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=379 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19065 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
