Title: Tagging Albums
Post by: DavidZ on August 18, 2013, 06:08:11 pm

I recently imported about 1300 files into JRiver, which I had previously ripped from CDs (I'm a new user). The program did a remarkable job of finding cover art and placing all the files in the right album arrangement. HOwever, I want to change some classifications. For example, I prefer the artists to be listed by their last name. So for Frank Zappa's "Yellow Shark" album, I changed the artist metatag from Frank Zappa to Zappa. However, when I sort albums by artist, it still uses Frank Zappa. Can someone explain the logic and how I can change it? Thanks. -- David

There are both Artist and Album Artist.  Check the tags for both.  Our wiki has information also.
