I think you're relying on a software solution too much, when it's pretty easy to fix. The catergory "No Album" or "No Artist" is a bit of a get-out only to be used when you want to see what you've screwed up or what Slim didn't understand.
What I do with all my files is the following: If I don't know the artist, it's blank or I cannot be bothered to fill it in I set the artist to "ZZZZZZUnknown Artist". This is a good reference to keep it at the bottom of any list, and also to quickly find what I need to fix. The same if it is an unknown album and I have all the tracks. If it's just one song I ripped then I give it the album "Jim's Singles" by AlbumArtist "Various Artists". If it's something else such as a old Napster MP3 or whatever then I give it the album "Jim's 128kbps MP3s", again with AlbumArtist "Various Artists". I don't bother with track numbers, but you could further catergorise this random stuff into your favourite order keeping < 100 tracks per "Album" obviously..... e.g. "Jim's Reggae Downloads"....."Jim's Funny Stuff".... >From then on if you still find listings of "No Album" or "No Artist" it's an easier indication of problems. -- Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=213 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18415 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
