My idea was to get it into the database, and I was hoping that CustomBrowse & CustomScan may help. erland;272001 Wrote: > > To get the information into the database you basically have two > options: > 1.

I use MP3 files which are labeled using the ID3v2 standard. According to this standard (http://www.id3.org/id3v2.3.0, section 4.24. "Ownership frame") there is an ID3 tag for it. However, after trying approx. 30 label programs, none was able to set this tag. erland;272001 Wrote: > > To get the information into the database you basically have two > options: > 2.

If you have e.g. one csv file for SC which can be searched on the triplet album name, album artist, trackname, then (I think) you could feed all kinds of different information into the SC database, possibly using the CustomBrowse & CustomScan plugins. Of course, I'm also interested in any other solution.
