Hrrm?

This is the setting you and radish set differently than I do. But then, that is a matter of taste. Neither of us is right.... The question is why does it not work for the OP? Well he seems to be splitting VA albums up based on artist... which would be downright painful for some of the stuff in my library (State of the Union, for example, a VA album with a LOT of tracks... 76 on each CD of the two-cd set) and would create a ton of seperate albums. A path like "<something>/artist/album/song.ext" should -not- be used on various artist albums unless "artist" is replaced with a constant "Various" type string in the path name. Not just for slimserver, but also the case of certain extremely annoying-to-tag albums like State of the Union: I would not like the concept of creating 152 directories to store a 2-cd set. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30839 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
