I see a lot of confusion in bugzilla regarding CUE sheet processing. I'm wondering how CUE sheet processing is intended to operate in the most current versions of SlimServer and what bugs may still exist (which is damned tough to tell by reading the bugzilla comments). Is it intended that a CUE sheet that references multiple files be parsed for tag-like info? If so, why, rather than looking only at tags within the individual files? If both data in internal tags and an external CUE sheet reference a file, what happens? Obviously this is a potential source for conflicts in the resulting data.
Short answer, all of the above. I have seen requests for cue sheets to override track metadata for singe files AND for multiple files. The files used to be listed, along with the cue sheet data and some users took great offense to the duplicate entries, so they were removed. Now, as you know, there is a request to have the audio file listed as well.
There is always a down side to being so customer driven as SlimServer: there is always a customer who wants it to be done differently. I'm all for picking a function and telling everyone else to just deal with it, but I'm not in charge :)
Like many other issues, this one is looking for the miracle global solution. if you have ideas, please feel free to bring this into the developers forum.
