    Smile SBS 7.6 - Artist tag now Case sensitive (AIR not equal Air)

    Hi,

    It seems SBS 7.6 handles tags a bit different than the previous version(s) (7.5.4).
    Apparently I have been a bit sloppy with tagging my music,
    For instances:
    "AIR" and "Air" are listed as 2 bands
    "Alice in Chains" and "Alice In Chains" are listed as 2 bands

    and so on.
    Not a big issue, I can rectify my previous sloppy work - but until I get the time, is there a quick fix to get SBS to help me

    Cheers,

    Good to see that you're keeping things in perspective. This change makes some people apoplectic. Unfortunately there isn't really a quick fix, especially because SBS never changes your tags.

    You can either rollback to 7.5.x until you fix your tags, or stay with 7.6.0 and use SBS to help identify the tags that need fixing. I'd recommend the latter, with SBS open in a browser window and a good tagging program like mp3tag opened in another window where you do the editing. Edit, rescan, repeat until you're done.

    I think I'll stay at 7.6, it looks like a rainy weekend, so what better to do than clean up my TAGs
