    TitleSwitcher and CustomScan Plugins

    It seems that TitleSwitcher does at the moment not support custom tags scanned with the CustomScan plugin.

    Is that correct (or did I something wrong) and if yes, will custom tags be supported in a future version?

    It works perfectly here, but you will need to define it in a number of places to make it work:
    1. In "SqueezeCenter Settings/Plugins/Custom Scan/Various Settings", you will need to select it under the Title Formats section. For example select "CUSTOMSCAN_CUSTOMTAG_PERFORMER"
    2. Under "SqueezeCenter Settings/Interface" you will need a title format that contains the exact tag, for example: "CUSTOMSCAN_CUSTOMTAG_PERFORMER"
    3. Under "SqueezeCenter Settings/Plugins/Title Switcher", you will need to define your title format which contains the Custom Scan title format, for example: "ARTIST:1,CUSTOMSCAN_CUSTOMTAG_PERFORMER:1"

    I'll check if it would be possible to avoid the registration in point 2, I'm guessing that you have missed that one ?

    Thanks for the quick response.

    In fact I defined the title format in point 2 but missed point 1
    I will try it this evening and report if it works.
