I recently setup a brand new dedicated box for serving my two Squeezeboxes and have begun the process of ripping and tagging. Since the CDDB is rarely correct or complete, I typically go back and manually edit the tags prior to running my SlimServer rescan. As such, I am interested in what all of you are doing already with your FLAC tags...
How detailed are your tags? For example, do you just set things like ARTIST, ALBUM, DATE, DISCNUMBER, DISCC, TITLE, TRACKNUMBER, GENRE? That would be what I'd consider the "basic" set of tags. Or do you set more? As a sample, I just took things to the extreme by finding a place for all the data I found in the booklet that came with my Jane Monheit CD: comments: 32 comment[0]: ALBUM=Taking a Chance on Love comment[1]: ARRANGER=Rob Mounsey comment[2]: ARTIST=Jane Monheit comment[3]: COMPOSER=Dorothy Fields comment[4]: COMPOSER=Jerome Kern comment[5]: COMPOSER=Jimmy McHugh comment[6]: COMPOSER=Oscar Hammerstein II comment[7]: COMPOSER=Otto Harbach comment[8]: COPYRIGHT=Sony Music Entertainment Inc. comment[9]: DATE=2004 comment[10]: DISCC=1 comment[11]: DISCNUMBER=1 comment[12]: GENRE=Jazz comment[13]: GENRE=Vocal comment[14]: LABEL=Sony Classical comment[15]: LABELNO=SK 92495 comment[16]: PERFORMER=Andy Snitzer (Horn) comment[17]: PERFORMER=Bob Malach (Horn) comment[18]: PERFORMER=Dave Taylor (Horn) comment[19]: PERFORMER=Jim Hynes (Horn) comment[20]: PERFORMER=Lawrence Feldman (Horn) comment[21]: PERFORMER=Lew Soloff (Horn) comment[22]: PERFORMER=Lewis Nash (Drums) comment[23]: PERFORMER=Michael Bubl'e comment[24]: PERFORMER=Michael Davis (Horn) comment[25]: PERFORMER=Rob Mounsey (Piano) comment[26]: PERFORMER=Roger Rosenberg comment[27]: PERFORMER=Ron Carter (Bass) comment[28]: PUBLISHER=Sony Music Entertainment Inc. comment[29]: SOURCEMEDIA=CD comment[30]: TITLE=I Won't Dance comment[31]: TRACKNUMBER=05 So, what do you do and why? And am I crazy to even consider going as far out as I did above? -- Brad Smith ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brad Smith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2205 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22333 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list ripping@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
