Corrupted/Misread ID3 Tags
« on: May 28, 2009, 03:24:32 AM »
There are some albums in my collection that rockbox, when building the database, only read the first 3 characters of the artist name. When I go to the properties for those songs on my ipod, all the rest of the tag info is missing. On my computer everything's fine. I use mediamonkey to sync with rockbox. Any ideas?

I've not experienced this myself but I remember reading about a similar sounding issue caused by the size of the buffer that Rockbox reads the tags in to - this can run out when you have lots of or large tags - embedded album art for example. Try some searching to see if you can find anything...

EDIT: Must remember to spell check...
