Re: [slim] One album shows up multiple times in listing

2020-05-11 Thread Apesbrain


Have you done a "Clear library and rescan everything" rescan?  Sometimes
it's necessary.

First, load one of the offending albums into Mp3tag and look at extended
tags: select all > ALT + T.  Are there are any tags you weren't
expecting?

[slim] One album shows up multiple times in listing

2020-05-11 Thread dbinder101


This has been going on for a while but I finally decided to ask this
forum to see what am I doing wrong:

I have a few  albums from my library (which contains about 1,000 albums)
that instead of showing up once in the albums listing, it shows twice,
sometimes more. This shows up on the Web UI as well as other UIs
(Materials, iPad app, etc). Each off these  multiple showings has some
of the tracks from that albums. I have checked the tags of the tracks
using MP3tag to make sure that the Album, Album Artist, and Artist tags
are the same and correct. But yet, for some reason, I think  LMS thinks
that some of the tracks contain different tag information than the other
tracks (BTW, the album art  is the same for each of the multiple
listings). 

I have been wracking my brains (and my eyes) and cannot figure out why
this is happening. Any help would be appreciated.

[slim] Tidal vs Qobuz? Your feedback on 16/44 FLAC listening experience on LMS

2020-05-11 Thread dwc


Spotify is fine in my car and in the kitchen, and Spotty is fantastic,
but 320mp3 Spotify is not cutting it on my nicer listening system. I'd
like to try some 16/44 FLAC streaming.

Which of Tidal and Qobuz is the better overall experience through LMS? 
I know a few folks have tried both, and many have one or the other. I am
more concerned about solid and reliable playback than I am about extras
like seeing album art, but the ability to effectively search and browse
the respective catalogs is important.

Does one service (plugin) or the other generally work better with LMS,
or are they essentially equal from LMS usage and function perspective?
- plugin Stability? (plugin crashes / disconnects / buffering dropouts,
etc)
- plugin Usability? (access to service, search / browse functionality
via LMS web UI, etc)
- Can either of the services be driven from their own app through LMS,
or does one use the LMS UI to find and queue songs?
- both plugins still actively maintained? Are the respective APIs stable
or "moving targets" like Spotify is?

Context: I am typically listening via a Transporter, driving via the
Material Skin UI on a phone in the western US.  

Thanks for any feedback here, I'm trying to decide between the two
services. Wondering which I should test out first.
