I'm no expert, but Spoon (author of dbpa) has said several times that there are no Vorbis (Flac) tag standards. Dunno. Regarding online metadta, dbpa uses a combination of AMG, GD3, MusicBrainz, and freedb to get the best match on metadata. I don't recall having to ever change any tagging related to AA. Then again, I *only* use Album Artist when I have a CD with some variation on track artist (but it is not a compilation) or on a CD where the Artist has several variations that I like to keep track of more simply (e.g., Miles Davis, Miles Davis Quintet, etc.). For regular compilations, I leave AA blank and just use Compilation=1 tag. This said, I know there are pages of threads at this forum that talk about all the various ways to do this...there is no right answer for sure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98345 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
