What is in tags should be what is displayed in the app, so if you have entered albums by "Mel Torme" and "Mel Tormé", they should be treated as different artists. It's then easy it identify errors in tags and fix them. e.g What if I had artist tags containing "Enrique Englesias", "Enriqué Englesias" and "Enriqué Englésias"? In MySQL, it was non-deterministic as to what was displayed for the artist in the app, as it depended what order the files were scanned in. If it picked the wrong one and you wanted to change tags to fix the display name, you had to find the song that needed updating, but as the app wasn't reporting the tags for the song, it meant that fixing tags was harder. Also, a scan for new/changed music wouldn't then pick up tag changes; a full wipe+rescan was necessary. I haven't tried a new/changed scan after having changed one artist tag to be another artist tag (to merge their albums/songs together under one artist), as I can't get sqlite scanning to work now, but this would be a good test. >Searching is also broken with respect to the old behavior. Take the >artist 'Mel Tormé'. In SC7.4 Trunk, if I search with 'mel torme' it >finds the artist. In SC7.4 noweb-sqlite, the search comes back empty. That's a bug though; I'd expect a search for "Torme" or "Tormé" to return both artists "Torme" and "Tormé". i.e. store a search field without any diacritics. Strip search string of diacritics, and find matches. Then display the artist display name for any matches found. ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
[SlimDevices: Beta] Album year and artwork
I have a suggestion for the scanner functionality concerning year/date and artwork for an *album* - for example, I have an album compiled in 2004, but I have tagged the individual songs with their own year of release (1976, 1985, whatever) and their own artwork (from the original single release cover). There is a folder.jpg that is a 'cover' for the album as a whole. When scanned by SC (SBS?), the album year and cover is set to that of the last track (1976). I can change the album year to 2004 in the SQLite DB no probs, but the album cover is trickier, because of the artwork cache thing. I'm guessing that folder.jpg image is not scanned or stored by SC, since all the tracks have their own embedded cover, and if it is scanned, I don't know how to find its cache ID. My suggestion therefore, is that the scanner could make use of a custom tag (e.g. ALBUMYEAR) and any image file (folder.jpg, cover.jpg, etc. as normal) and set these for the album only. In the event these don't exist, the current behaviour is fine.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Album year and artwork
Nope - I don't want this. I've spent hours tagging each track on hundreds of compilation CD's with the correct release year. Year tags are really messed up. There needs to be an album/release year tag and a track year tag - 90% of the people 90% of the time will use years to mean the track year NOT the album (re)release year! This really is a very simple use-case: If I have a 2004 compilation containing "In The Summertime By Mungo Jerry" I NEVER want to see "In The Summertime By Mungo Jerry" come up when I search 2004 - I ALWAYS want to see it if I search 1972... -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7.3.3. Nightly dies...
During April and May I had almost no SC crash (only one) but since June crashes came back and now I have sometimes 4 crashes a day (I upgrade to the latest nightly sporadicly every few days). And after having upgraded to the official 7.3.3 release (and further to the 7.3.4 nightlies) it got even worse since now SC is no longer starting automatically (which was no problem before). Deleting *pkd folders in my temp directory helps sometimes but not always. I even deinstalled my anti virus software (avira antivir) but it did not help. I then manually installed squeezecenter as windows server and now at least it starts again automatically but it crashes several times a day with the perl interpreter failed message. Is there anything I can do against that? I start thinking to switch from Windows to Ubuntu since I hope this may be more stable. Is that true and is there any way to import my SC and plugin settings when porting from Windows to Ubuntu?

For compilations, the "album year" should actually be several years - a list of distinct years based on the songs on the album. i.e. treat it the same as genres across all the songs on the album. When browsing Years, the compilation album should appear under all years, not one specifically, similar to how you can find a compilation album by browsing to any artist that appears on the compilation. ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
