Mp3's beginning with a number
SimonC - 11-3-2007 at 02:55 PM

I've just had to do a rebuild database and it has ignored all the album id3 tag info (from what I can tell) on any album that has the track number in the beginning of the title - i.e (09 - Higher Ground)

This certainly wasn't the case until recent upgrades. Why would this be?
Can the issue be addressed? - If not, I've got a lot of renaming files to do!

The reason this naming convention happens is that the cd database in Ejukebox is not all that extensive - so I use iTunes as a backup cd ripper.

Please help!!


Update - I have downgrade to 4.84, rebuilt the database and then re-upgraded to 4.88 - this gave me a temporary fix.

Problem is, 4.88 is going to create bogus 1 track albums everytime I import a cd with a number in begining of the filename - so if there is a more permanent fix I'd be very grateful.

Hi Audiosoft

Is there a way around the problem above other than renaming all of my mp3's please?
