Database filename problems
« on: August 20, 2007, 03:45:17 PM »
when eve ri goto my music folder and search through my files(not under database) they are all organized right by artist name and there are no strange entries such as errors in the artist name.  however, i initialized the database, and when i click on database then goto artist, this is the case several times, a few artist names look like this:

Jedi M
Jedi Mind T
Jedi Mind Tricks

Mastadon
Mastodon

and when i look at it under music it looks normal, like its all under jedi mind tricks instead of jedi M, Jedi Mind T, Jedi mind tricks as it is under database. can any1 help?

Proper words please, not any1.

When you are using database, you are browsing by tag.  When you use file tree you are browsing by filename.  You need to check the tags on your files.

A program such as Foobar or The Godfather will retag your files from the filename.
