I just bought a new NAS, so I thought it was time also to perform a big clean-up on my library, more specific on the way i will keep track of all my music and the tagging. Because for now I mainly use it for my music (+50k). And now am asking you guys (and girls) for some opinions for this,
So I was thinking about putting all my files there, and start a new library scanning those files, where no custom fields are in yet.
I like mostly that featured artists are not behind the songs name, but in the "artist" field. But I noticed this gives problems (for instance for mass look-up lyrics with foobar). Where do you put the ft. artists?
And the same goes for "album", where I just want the album name, and not "album name [2005 remastered version]".
I was thinking about using custom fields for the ft artist or versions, and then with expressions make new fields so that there is this a difference between albums. Good way? bad way? I know it will be alot of work, but this doesn't have to be alright overnight. I consider this to be work in progress while i'm listening to the music.
Your thoughts about all this are more then welcome. Thanks
btw, before I found jr mc, I tried out alot of players. Still the best one! I hope in time I will find out all the other stuff too (movies, etc.)
