[QUOTE="dicsv, post: 169768, member: 54588"] There seems to be only a few of us using wave-files in MP. I have finally managed to add all data into the database for my wave-files. They were all listed as "unknown" and a lot of missing data. Everything works OK in the Artists and Albums lists, but when I switch to "Now Playing", the database data is only visible for a fraction of a second. Then it is replaced by the original filename and no artist, album, track etc. Album and year are also missing from the heading of albumart and no albumart are showing. I'm using MP 0.2.3 RC1 with Bass engine and BlueTwo skin. I don't have "Use ID3 tags / autoadd file to music database" ticked. (I don't want everything to be added to the database automatically, I would rather see a setting for "Always use database".) Is there something I can edit in the skins xml-files to fix this, or change something in the settings? --- I would also like to have my Albums sorted by year for each artist, with the year listed in front of the album name. I have tried the Music Views settings, but there are no SortBy=Year for Albums. Maybe it's because the Year data is only listed in the Song table, and not in the Album table. I assume the Year is in the Song table to handle "Various Artists". Then maybe there would be a AlbumYear entry in Album table (and a YearIndex for multiple releases/year). [/QUOTE]
