Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Library Problem

I use dbpoweramp for tagging, and Tag & Rename as well.  Tag & Rename is
very powerful, it lets you rename the file based upon track tags and
vice versa.  Also has a good text substitute feature which I have found
to be very helpful.
I have run into the same issue that you have where an artist listing
appears in an alphabetical location.  It usually is due to the an error
in one of the sorting artist fields in a compilation CD, or not checking
off the 'compilation' tag.  I use 'Various Artists' for the album artist
name in compilations, although I know that many prefer to leave it
blank.

That was a great help! I was not aware of the extended tags. A coulpe of
quick follow ups though. Is it best to have the Artist Album Sort tag
blank or populated? Also, is there a tag editing program for windows
that you would recommend?

Hi

1st of all i do hate mp3tag for a good reason

Check your screenshoot youre using more than one tag type - in one of
them in a single file you had a tag albumartistsort or artistsort that
causes your sorting problem.

Mp3Tag didnt show all tags even under extended tags.

Eg 
- copy some album / Folder to a separate destination
- grab that album / Folder with mp3tag and select all files
- make sure you have select 2delete idv2 and timestamps not touched
- use a commandline tagger and remove all eg idv2 tags and go back to
  your mp3tag Windows and click on the save button.
- use a md5 checksumm tool to check both versions
  
you would expect that there is no difference between the two versions -
but there is one. And thats the reason why i dont like mp3tag.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Library Problem

2017-12-18 Thread bitterroots

I have been using Logitech Media Server for a while now. Currently, I am
running 7.9.1 on FreeNAS. For as long as I can remember, I have been
having an issue though. I am very diligent about my tags and use Mp3Tag
for editing. I use "Album Artist" as mainly, but "Artist" as well. My
issue, is that there is a point (right about in the middle of Album
Artists) that the sorting goes haywire. The list goes from Kravitz to
U2, random artists, and then finally to Lennon. It appears to think that
these random artists begin with "L". I have attached some examples.
Also, I have compared tags to each other and there does not appear to be
any differences.
