Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Multiple genres entries
Scan for new and changed , would make it even messier (with correct AND the old wrong ones apearing sisde by side ). Clear and rescan everything , would be the scanning you should choose. Also , do you use a good tag editor such as mp3tag ? (works for all other formats to ) . To see if you have multiple tag types like id3v1 and id3v2 in the same mp3 or id3v and flac tags in flac files etc . What can happen is that if you edit just one tag type with a not so smart taggging software is that there is different and conflicting information in the files . The solution is to use only one tag type for example id3v2.4 for mp3 files . -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Multiple genres entries
If you have upgraded to 7.6.0/7.6.1 it could be because of changes in the scanner code in regards of tags. The code no longer differs on capital letters or strips trailing spaces. So the following 3 would now be considered different, but would previously have been one genre: "Rock" "ROCK" "Rock " If I look in my own genre list I have: "Rock" "ROCK" "Synthpop" "SynthPop" = work for me to do one evening. And these which was also a problem before 7.6.x "New Age" "Newage" "Sound Track" "Soundtrack" obviously I do not actively use genre in my daily usage ;-) -- slate Main: Receiver (Audiocom) -> Beresford Caiman+ (Gatorized) -> Carver A-500x -> B&W 704 Office: Receiver -> Luxman L-210 -> Stax SR84 Pro/Superlux HD668B Server: Zotac IONITX-A, 4 GB, 1 TB WD EADS, Win7 w. 7.6 (SQLite w.

Are you using the built-in server in the Touch or a standalone
Squeezebox Server on a computer ?
Which Touch firmware version are you using ?
It's shown in "Settings/Advanced/About" in the Touch menu.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Firewire drives
You might have a Touch, but your problem is related to Squeezebox Server on your Mac, not the Touch itself. You won't find many references to Firewire, especially now, it's kind of a dead interface (which is a shame, I always preferred it to USB). Many references on this part of the forums concerning USB will relate to directly connecting a drive to the USB port on the Touch, not something that relates to your problem at all. I would post a thread over in the Squeezebox Server section: http://forums.slimdevices.com/forumdisplay.php?f=27 You might get more response there.

It worked fine for me ; now all I have to do is prevent auto download of the latest software, just ignoring the attempt with the remote (home button). waiting for a decent release, and will always keep an usb available to be able to get back to 7.5 when needed :) -- magnumpat magnumpat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43536 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89361 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
