I suspect you will have issues regardless of the naming convention you choose. I have named, for many years, composers as: Surname, Forenames (year of birth-year of death). This differs from the streaming services and also from Last FM from which Michael gets the artist information for the Music and Artist Information plugin. I can't be bothered presently to go through my collection to change the information but may have to bite the bullet at some stage. It is very rare to get an album review to show for classical music due to the naming convention of albums. I am not a Roon fan but the presentation of metadata is interpreted for you. Even then, they don't always get it right. That said, it would annoy the life out of me - I like to curate my collection my way, thank you! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shozzer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58726 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112962
