I just fell foul of this new behaviour again, BTW. I was playing a FLAC song, looked at Song Info page, and it reported: Comment: Track 4 / Track 4 / Track 4 / Track 4 I opened Mp3Tag for this file, and there wasn't a comment tag. Then I realised there were id3 tags present too, so I deleted them. I couldn't see the id3 tags, as most editors only show the FLAC tags. I think when I ripped this album, EAC was probably writing the track number to comment tags. Not sure why the scanner would have read the comment tag four times though. What is the state of the scanner in 7.5.0 now? Will the scanner only read FLAC, and then id3 if there's no FLAC tags at all? I'm thinking perhaps I just need to do another full rescan? _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
