Hi people,
Like many of you I'm sure, I am loving my Wiim (ultra) to listen to my digital music collection,
Like many, I think, I like to keep that library neatly organised, sadly enough, somehow tagging and organisational tagging seems to be widely different between software/brands, even if they all use the same tagging standards, they all seem to read it slightly different.
Luckily, I have a habit of having a master collection tagged for my main system, and a copy of that directly plugged into my Wiim USB for the office, so I can actually change my ID tags if needed for the Wiim.
So two questions;
In my collection there are a good number of compilation albums, often collecting artists who might have like one song released in their lifetime.
Now this has always been tagged as follows for myself (and softwares I used) as both Album artist and sort artist as "Various Artists" and artist is the name of the band, this always translated into my library showing various artists for my compilations (single entity), and then when playing music, showing the band name.
on my Wiim however, I am at about 300 artists with one or two songs mixed into my normal collection, is there a way to set "artist" in the home app to be "Album artist" or a workaround where they are grouped as "Various Artists" while still being able to also see the band names when playing ?
Second question,
Is there a way to add an artist image ?
The fact that there is an empty thumbnail image tells me yes, I already tried both Folder.jpg and folder.jpg inside the musician folders, but nothing seems to pop up here.
Both of these things are obviously not problematic,
But I am a visual person, I liek stuff to look neat and nice, for a library that already has plenty of info to deal with
Thanks.
