[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 531337, member: 76888"] Hi Metalla_NZ Just had an idea for supporting/parsing multiple artists Parsing looks for the '&' symbol within the %artist% tag eg. Chemical Brothers & Fat Boy Slim - Our Song.avi This is entered into the database twice as Chemical Brothers - Our Song and Fat Boy Slim - Our Song. Alternatively it could be entered into the database twice as Chemical Brothers - Our Song (Feat Fat Boy Slim) and Fat Boy Slim - Our Song (Feat Chemical Brothers) Parsing also looks for the '(Feat *****)' string eg. Chemical Brothers - Our Song (Feat Fat Boy Slim).avi /or/ Chemical Brothers (Feat Fat Boy Slim) - Our Song.avi This is entered into the database as Chemical Brothers - Our Song and Fat Boy Slim - Our Song. Alternatively it could be entered into the database twice as Chemical Brothers - Our Song (Feat Fat Boy Slim) and Fat Boy Slim - Our Song (Feat Chemical Brothers) You could also add support for looking for the '&' or ',' symbol within the '(Feat ****)' string for videos that have more than 2 artists in them. eg. Pink (Feat Beyonce & Taylor Swift) - Little River.avi Entered into the database as Pink - Little River , Beyonce - Little River , Taylor Swift - Little River Or alternatively Pink - Little River (Feat Beyonce & Taylor Swift) , Beyonce - Little River (Feat Pink & Taylor Swift) , Taylor Swift - Little River (Feat Beyonce & Pink) The problem would arise if you had an artist called Kruder & Dorfmeister which you want parsed as a single artist, in this case you would have to name your file 'Kruder and Dorfmeister - Song name.avi' Alternatively you could use the + symbol instead of the & symbol, or just use the 'Feat' string and skip the & symbol altogether [/QUOTE]
