A45 - How to tag multiple artists?

jackymg — Thu, 19 Apr 2018 11:06:10 GMT

Hi,

I recently got my A45 player. I have tracks in my collection that have multiple artists. I would like to know how to tag these track so the following can be achieved.

e.g. a track, say 'Track01' with Artist1= Tom, Artist2= James; I want 'Track01' to be appeared in both artists' list. At the moment, I am tagging Artist = 'Tom / James'. But this made 'Track01' disappeared in both lists of Tom and James and created another artist called 'Tom / James'.

I tried replacing the delimitter to ',' and ';' without success.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Jack

Hi Sean,

Thanks for replying. However my question is more about how to deal with tagging within the audio container file.

Cheers

Hi Jack,

The artist name is recognized as the whole characters value not as single words tags. So basically the only way to achieve this is to have duplicate files with two different names for the artist.

Hope this helps!
