Well I've downloaded mp3tag and looked at everything with the 34 songs
concerned. Everything looks normal, no accented characters or
wrong/extra tags. What to try next? Black Velvet by Alannah Myles is
one of the tunes fo reference.
BTW, I did find some extra tags on other songs that were not
I've seen similar problems that went away after I blew away the data
base and rescanned. Just rescan wasn't good enough.
In windows, with the server stopped, blow away
\Program Files\SlimServer\server\Cache
and restart the server.
YMMV

I don't know how to check tags or what to look for.
Download 'Mp3tag' (http://www.mp3tag.de/en). It's free.
Load the affected albums and compare those tags to other, working
albums.

I have a similar problem. Of the 4300+ songs in my database, I have 34
files that show up as No Artist, No Album. I am using iTunes as my
database.
If I mark the albums in question as Compilations, then everything is
where it should be and all is well, but if I mark the albums as no to
Coming to your points: my lyrics are in French and Spanish, have been
imported via Notepad trough iTunes v6.0.1.5 into Slim. I am unable to
say whether that means Unicode Utf etc. MP3Tag Studio 3.05 identifies
the tags as ID3v2.
One question: whether synced or not, the lyrics don't show as such
Well, I solved my problem. I do my ripping on a Windows XP box then
copy the MP3s to my Linux box. Most of the time, I do this over my
network; I open a Nautilus file brower, navigate to the Windows folder
where the newly ripped MP3s reside then copy them to the Linux Music
folder.
But I
I seem to have solved part of the problem by removing the lyrics from
the 7 problem files. Slimserver now recognises the files, puts them in
the right folder and reads them normally.
The other 50 files with lyrics in the same folder, showing under
Slimserver Song info, some Lyrics: eng some
Yes, it can show lyrics on the songinfo screen: it does for me on the
very few songs I've added lyrics to.
(I need to find a nice tool to take a txt file and cram it into a USLT
tag...)
Only thing I don't like about it is it would be nice if br's were
inserted at line breaks, but other than
Let me chime in say that I'm experiencing the same problem with 2 of
my CDs that I ripped to MP3s using EAC. I'm a Slimserver / Squeezebox
newbie, but I've been using EAC for years, Slimserver has had no
trouble with most of my MP3s.
Here's a file name that Slimserver seems to be choking on:
Do any of the songs you are having problems with have accented /
non-Western ISO standard filenames ? i.e. C:\My Music\accentéd.mp3
If so, try renaming the files without the accented characters (you can
leave the accents in the tags, it's just the filename that you may need
to change), so C:\My
Thanks
It doesn't look as if it was a filename-caracter-related question. None
of the files has any funny caracters in its filename.
I have also run the names through mp3tag, no difference.
The same 7 files (out of a total of 57 in that folder) continue to be
classified : No Album, No Artist No
