i know its a lot of posts, but i already explained this. i already have TPE2 tags. they already are the way i need them to be if SC7 would only use them for sorting, and not just labeling. i do not see why i must get yet another program and retag all my stuff AND all new future stuff. its a pointless and unnecessary extra step. if this were simply a case of "island sinatra" then i would do it, but its not. a lot, if not the majority of the mp3 marketplace is in the same boat i am in. that being the case, SC7 should recognize and respect a "defacto standard" that affects a lot of people, dare i say, the majority. its no different than having SC7 respect the much smaller minority of mp3 users who use the Txxx user defined mp3 fields, but are still a defacto standard, just of a different type (which are just as non-standard as using TPE2 as the 'Album Artist' field). people do download and try this SC7 stuff out, and if it doesn't work as they believe (and i agree) they think it reasonably should, then they'll ditch slim, with nary a complaint to anyone. that should be avoided at all costs. i want slim to succeed. more purchasers make this stuff cheaper. -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 (primary) / SBR (secondary) / Jive - w/SC 7.0.1beta - Win XP Pro SP2 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - D-Link DIR-655 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46093 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
