[slim] Library/Tagging/Display.....
Got a wee problem with some artists in my library For some reason unknown to me,slimserver is listing some of my albums twice. For example... I have 'Grace' by Jeff Buckley. 'Grace' is listed twice when I search Jeff Buckley either through slimserver or through SB. Tracks 1 to 4 come under one listing for 'Grace' and tracks 5 to 11 come under another. Same with 'Into the Purple Valley' by Ry Cooder. The album is listed twice. I only have ripped 5 tracks from this album, tracks 1 to 3 come under one listing and 4,5 under the other. Tagged it with MP3tag...no change, tagged it with Itunes...no change. Wots goin on Also, just ripped 'Blonde on Blonde' and Slimserver/SB is not displaying the artist or recognising the album. I can search all the songs from the album individually, but SS/SB has no listing for 'Blonde on Blonde' and when I search a song by song title SB does not display the artist. I have this problem with several other albums. ??? -- EasilyConfused EasilyConfused's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8832 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34125 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Library/Tagging/Display.....
I have the same problem, I thought everything was fine with 6.5.1, and I upgraded with 6.5.2 and firmware 80 but I cannot say thats when the problems began... I have artists showing up in Album and Artist but not in Genre, albums were listed twice, some files under rock , like J.J. Cale, are actually empty on the SB3 although the albums are in SlimServer under J.J.Cale, and yes, it is tagged with Rock... Everything works like a charm in ITunes, no problems there, it begins to get confusing when SS takes over the show. Someone suggested you should not use the scan the library for new music but rather once in a while use clear library and scan again, but I dont know, I did that. Albums wre not double listed but other problems came. Can I ask you, when using mp3tag, when it scans the music and the machine have written tags, are these automatically stored in ITunes then or do you need to do something ? I saved the file with all my music when I was done doing some tags updates, this was stored as a zip file in my documents. How do I call this file up in mp3tag again ? -- Anne Anne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34125 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Anne, as per usual, I have solved the problem myself within minutes of posting on here! and as usual.. I don't really know how! I'm like a dog with a bone with these problems and I just screw around with things until it's sorted,and then I say to myself 'Uh?...how did that happen' !! Anyway, not sure about your 'genre' problem - I don't ever use genre as a means of searching or for tagging etc. All I've done is to remove ape and ID3v1 (both reading and writing) from the offending tracks in the MP3tag settings. Then (and this probably didn't achieve diddly sqaut but I did it anyway) copied the offending tracks to my desktop - deleted offending tracks from library and from ITunes - then added them back to library and ITunes from the desktop...quick 'rescan new and changed' with SS and bingo!... 'Into the purple Valley' is once again one album by Ry Cooder...and 'Blonde on Blonde' is apparently by Bob Dylan!! at least I think that's wot I did! -- EasilyConfused EasilyConfused's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8832 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34125 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
