But if anyone knows otherwise... I see. Unfortunately, there a lot of tagging shortcoming in EAC that aren't likely to be addressed. For instance something as simple as adding another ARTIST, or DISCUNUMBER or ALBUMARTIST tag requires you to edit the compression options. It's just not convenient enough to be useful beyond basic tagging.
Mp3tag is one tagger that will let you add multiple genres, or any other ad-hoc vorbis tags that you'd like, to flac files. http://www.mp3tag.de/en/ That's another step in my usual ripping process. I run mp3tag afterwards and add things like COMMENT, ARTISTSORT, COMPILATION, DISCNUMBER tags. With a few canned scripts that I have (mp3tag 'actions') it generally takes only a few seconds to tag an entire album. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22465 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
