I think that very few people would tag either with anything other than the release year of the original LP, as they probably do for most CD reissues of vinyl albums. Of course there are folks that lobby for being able to tag the original release date, the date of the reissue, the date of the recording... until they run out of things to worry about, which is never. Folder paths are also used by SqueezeCenter to distinguish albums. I think that's smart, although it's hell for anyone who doesn't use a folder-per-album filing system. I think there are currently a number of bugs in the album consolidation code, particularly with respect to compilation albums. I don't have any problems with any of my albums, but I also go to the trouble of tagging everything with a COMPILATION=1/0 tag and don't attempt to use per-track dates. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46472 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
