[SlimDevices: Touch] Browsing Artists: Incorrect sequence

2011-01-30 Thread psch41

Hi, 

I need your help on a sorting issue:
All artist names in my music database are of the form first name
last name, e.g. Buck Owens. Consequently, when browsing thru
Artists on my SB, I see my artists in alphabetical order, based on
their first names. 

That is - not always...
Some of my artists appear out of order, mostly (always?) sorted by
their LAST name. I've checked the appropriate tags and could not spot
any difference between these and those of other artists shown in
correct sequence. Nowhere in the tags (or the filename) is an artist
name written like Owens, Buck.

Can anybody help me understand what's going on, and how to fix this?

I've checked the appropriate tags

Suggest you try using mp3tag and read the Wiki on setting it to look
for and delete mixed APE/ID3 tags or mixed version of ID3 tagging.

Tks for the suggestions.

In fact I'm using mp3tag. And I've read the Wiki on setting tags. I'm
only using ID3v2.3 and APEv2 (as I understood APEv2 is neccessary if
you use MP3Gain, which I do). I also store cover art within the music
file (removing cover art however does not help to fix my sorting
problem).

I guess I shall try deleting my APEv2 tags, in order to find out if
this has any influence in the sorting order of my SB Touch.

Am I the only one experiencing this feature???

Any further ideas?
