Yes, I tried that but found out that in MP3Tag, my own genres were correct. In the meantime I also tried Itunes to correct some genres, as Itunes also sometimes has a way of its own in thie I experienced but that didn't solve the issue either. Now what? I know some other users I know have the same

Also worth checking if the file modification timestamps were updated when you changed the genres: some tagging tools will deliberately leave this unchanged, which means that slimserver won't know to rescan. Unless you do a "clear all and rescan", which is probably a good idea anyway. Ceejay --

Hi, I've just changed the genres asigned to some of my music, since the old genres, picked up from CDDB were a bit of a mess. The old genres are still showing, together with associated songs, in the slimserver web view, despite re-scanning. Is there anything I can do about this apart from a full r

If you feel that you can trust your own judgment as to what belongs in what genre, then you can always arrange your library in /genre/artist/album trees on your hard disk. Then, you can use any of a number of tagging utilities to mass-set the genre tags in your flacs accordingly. Genre classific

Short of manually checking each album (have almost 1000 flac albums) for correct genres and years, I'm wondering if a plug in or program exists for Mac which may save me lots of time and do this for me. I did search, but I failed to find the information I am looking for, perhaps I missed it. I h
