I have two systems, a home theatre with a Pioneer avr and a two channel with integrated amp and cd player. I use WAV files because my Pioneer avr will play that format directly from a USB portable hard drive, but won't play flac, so I didn't have much choice about the format. I use a Touch on the two channel system with a duplicate hard drive plugged in directly. I use EAC for ripping.
I had the problem of "unknown artist" and a few other things so I used Foobar to check the tagging info and found it varied a lot from file to file. What worked for me was to edit the tags and simplify the info to Artist, CD Title, Genre and track number. I don't have access to Foobar at the moment but I think those were the categories. I also think that folder structure is important. I found i need to have an artist folder and then individual album sub-folders. On compilations I needed to create an artist folder name and place the album folder in it. For example, Atlantic records put out some jazz compilations of various artists, one called Keyboards, another Best of the 50's. I had to put the two under a folder I called Atlantic. I don't recall the tagging I did, would have to check. Anyways, all is good now, the Touch organizes everything as it should, so it is possible to use WAV files if you have a reason to like I did. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bmor's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52265 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95312 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
