Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] MPD reads Artist Tag Incorrectly (could be a bug).
Hi, I reported a bug the packaging of faad2-devel at rpmfusions bugzilla here: http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1112 This is what they say: I'll take a more detailed look at this later, but AFAIR this is not a public header and thus should not be installed. mpd should be fixed to use libmp4v2 (if it doesn't already) and whatever public API is available. See also http://bugzilla.livna.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1040#c19 You may want to take a look into it.

[Musicpd-dev-team] MPD reads Artist Tag Incorrectly (could be a bug).
Hi, I am using mpd-0.15.8-1.fc12.i686 installed via rpms on an fedora 12 machine. Most of my music collection is in the .m4a format (encoded in iTunes) and tagged using the picard tagger. It appears that mpd is reading the Composer tag in the tag as the Artist. For example, for a particular file the tag reads : http://web6.twitpic.com/img/68993695-66bb9631dd0dbc57b0139cc8a6d9bd61.4b8530b5-scaled.png (screenshot of amarok displaying the file info) for the same file, the mpd.db database entry reads : http://web1.twitpic.com/img/68994723-504bd2387c4e9f92352779623126d1b9.4b8531ed-full.png As you can see, mpd says the artist is Eddie Vedder, when actually it is Pearl Jam is the Artist and Eddie Vedder is the Composer (or maybe the primary song writer). This is the problem with most of my music collection. As a result the MPD client will display an extended list of Artists, making it difficult to look for a particular album by a particular artist, this also effect the last.fm submissions (via mpdscribble). Is this an known issue and fixed in some newer release of mpd or is there something that needs to be corrected in the mpd configuration. Please advice.
