Hi Fred,
There are several solutions. I'll describe them quickly.
Use annotate:title="force",artist="force":file instead of file. You
can use that syntax in your playlists. I'm not 100% sure that the
annotate metadata overrides the file metadata, though. Please tell us
if you find out.
Add a rewrite_metadata: source =
rewrite_metadata([("artist","rien"),("title","$(filename)")],source).
This replaces artist by "rien", and "title" by the filename.
We have several metadata input methods. The most stable is probably
taglib. The way v1/v2 are handled is the taglib's choice, for now. In
the future we'll have a more complete support of tags via taglib. If
you want to be sure not to extract any metadata from the file, you can
compile liq without any tag support. But the rewrite_metadata() is
probably less trouble.
I'm sorry to be unsure about so many things. It's because MP3 metadata
is a lot of headaches, it has changed several times as it was
unsatisfying... I lost track of the details. But be assured that there
is a solution :)
Please try these tracks, and ask for more details if you need. I've
got to run away from computer now ;)
