Problem with Music Indexing correctly after Update to 7.4
Last modified: 2012-02-27 17:33:27 UTC
Ticket #091006-001727 Windows XP Squeezebox Server 7.4 ****From the Customer**** This bug deals with the way 7.4 looks at tags and extended tag fields. Something has changed. The previous version did it correctly. Most of the music in my collection migrated over just fine... Why? Because the "Album Artist" field in the tag was not used or echoed the same name in the "Artist" field. For example, if "Beck" is the name in the Artist field, AND "Beck" is the name in the "Album Artist" field (or the Album Artist field is left blank), then the music is sorted correctly as "Beck" in Squeezebox. However, if the "Artist" field contains "Beck," and the "Album Artist" field contains "LaRon," then Squeezebox is going to sort it as "LaRon," and thus far I haven't found a way to make it filter differently. You can test this yourself, by ripping a cd and entering the correct name in the "Artist" field, and an erroneous name in the "Album Artist," the erroneous name is the one that will persist in Squeezebox. ******** Thanks, LaRon
