I've tried ^ and .flac at the end of a guess tag, and it doesn't work.
eg:
/ARTIST/ALBUM/TITLE^
or
/ARTIST/ALBUM/TITLE.flac
doesn't appear to match any items, so I end up with more things in "No Artist",
"No Album". Therefore, /ARTIST/ALBUM/TITLE as a catch-all guess is a complete
waste of time that has a detrimental effect, so I've removed it. Any item not
exactly matching will end up in "No Artist"/"No Album" - I've got about 3500 of
those!
The only way around the effects of matching any substring, would be to add
loads of additional guess tags, such as:
/Music Downloads/ARTIST/ALBUM/TRACKNUM TITLE
/Music Downloads/ARTIST/ALBUM/TITLE
/Music Downloads/ARTIST/ALBUM/cd DISC/TRACKNUM TITLE
/Music Downloads/ARTIST/ALBUM/disc DISC/TRACKNUM TITLE
/Music Downloads/ARTIST/ALBUM/disc DISC/TITLE
and repeating these guesses for each of the possible TRACKNUM TITLE formats
(eg. with ".", " - " dividers), and also for all shortcut folders that I have
in my slimserver music root folder ("Phil's Music", "Alex's Music", etc).
That's going to be a lot of entries, which will surely slow the scanning down
somewhat.
The settings aren't easy to enter either, as new guess tags can only be entered
at the bottom, so getting the order right involves a lot of cutting/pasting.
Looks like I've got a lot of tags to sort out!
Phil
