Well, if you're happy with 6.0.1 then great, don't change it. But you may have a long wait for the magic post you are looking for: the real problem here is that tagging standards, especially the dreadful ID3 tags for MP3s, are so badly defined and inconsistent that there isn't a "right" answer... all the SS devs can do is pick an approach which works in as many cases as they can manage, which for sure won't please everyone. If you have some specific cases that you can post in bugzilla that you think they should be covering, then that would be helpful. Otherwise your choices are - retag your files cleanly (mp3tag will probably do this for you) - switch to a cleaner file format like FLAC - stick with what you've got - wait and hope Ceejay -- ceejay ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ceejay's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=148 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28416 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
