Hi Bill, First of all welcome to the forum. I hope that you will be able to find an answer to your very intriguing question.
As far as I know you can add just about any "tag" you want to a given mp3 file using a good tag editor such as mp3tag (http://www.mp3tag.de/en/). It's the other part of your question, the part about displaying and using all these custom tags that I'm not to sure about. There may be a plug-in that will allow you to use custom tags so you may need to cross post your question on the "3rd Party Plugins" section of the forum. I think that the Sooloos interface does more of what you're looking for but SqueezeCenter's use of tags is fairly basic and very straight forward with regard to the music library that it build and search functions within the music library. For example if one has several recordings by Mal Waldron where one is tagged as "Mal Waldron", the next one is tagged as "Mal Waldron Trio" and the third one is tagged as "Mal Waldron Quartet" here's how they get handled by SqueezeCenter: A search on the term "Mal Waldron" will find all three recordings, which is good. However if one is playing the recording tagged as "Mal Waldron" and one wants to find other recordings by the same artist by using the file info dialogs, SqueezeCenter would not find the other two recordings since they are tagged as two different (and unique) artists. Anyway, if you find a reasonable solution to this problem, by all means, please let us know. -- ralphpnj Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels -> Snatch -> The Transporter -> Transporter 2 'Last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/jazzfann/) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68150 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
