sounds to me like iphone then is not yet ready for prime time. jasell;582558 Wrote: > in iTunes: > the Album Artist are set to Various Artist as you set the > Compilation=yes i do not think this is correct, but i could be wrong. i have limited itunes exp, but i have seen plenty of files with the comp tag and no AA tag in itunes. also, are you conflating "Various Artists" and "Compilations"? maybe i am... anyway, it may DISPLAY that way, ie. itunes puts it there in the app, but i do NOT think it actually adds that string to the tag for the AA field. in other words, grab puddletag and actually LOOK in the TAGS to see what info the files have. do not trust itunes to show/tell you. jasell;582558 Wrote: > I use the SortAlbum-tag to make my albums to show in reverse > Cronological order for each Artist, this works fine for all solutions: > SBS (Web/Controller/iPeng),iPhone, iTunes. so what is the issue? -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 & sbc (my home) / sbrec & ipeng (parent's home) - sbs 7.5.2b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - p4(ht) 3.2ghz, 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 - 45k+ mp3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82618 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
