So you use multiple ARTIST and ARTISTSORT tags and they stay coordinated? That is, you can have these tags in a file: ARTIST = Frank Sinatra ARTIST = Antonio Carlos Jobim ARTISTSORT = Sinatra, Frank ARTISTSORT = Jobim, Antonio Carlos and LMS never gets confused about which ARTISTSORT tag goes with which ARTIST tag? I use the separator method; i.e., ARTIST = Frank Sinatra;Antonio Carlos Jobim ARTISTSORT = Sinatra, Frank;Jobim, Antonio Carlos and the whole reason is to guarantee that the artist names are matched up correctly with their sort order. Otherwise I think I would use multiple tags, which seem a little more portable. For example, MusicIP doesn't recognize the separator method, so it thinks I have an artist named "Frank Sinatra;Antonio Carlos Jobim", and it does NOT recognize the tracks on this album as tracks by Frank Sinatra. And I foresee similar problems if I ever try to play my music in systems other than LMS. -- dpotts ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dpotts's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29782 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93134 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
