OK, you are right, getting tags right for classical music is a royal PITA and keeping them right when you go to MP3 is even more of a pita if such a thing is possible. I believe that it may be impossible to get the tags right, which is why we need a database. But this gets into a bigger issue, as the current database is treated as if it can always be rebuilt from the tags. I am not convinced that is a good decision, but haven't had time to create a patch to tell the SlimServer to "do not trash criticial fields which can't be rebuilt from tags, just manage the songs and albums and music side of things" The complexity of classical music begs for a real database so you can do things like check who is the conductor on this Beethoven's Ninth, or how is the solo violin.... -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
