Hi All,

Can anyone advise what they do when they have a mix album they wish to tag where discogs have split a track into something like 21a & 21b when its actually just one track. It throws out teh tagging which is a bit of a nightmare.

Is there anyway round this problem or another script that sorts thsi issue

I'm using discogs\_ext4.src or something similar to that. I'm at work so cant check teh extact name.

Any help with this will be very much appreciated

Cheers  
Gav

The only way I know is to tag them manually - that's what I'm doing.

Hmmmm ... I'm sure there must be a way to do this and would be a great addition seen as more and more mix cds are becoming a mix of multiple tracks in one.

I can see in the code that i need a way of distinguishing between these tracks and normal ones. In the discogs output you can see them as they are 1.1 or 1.2 etc .. or 1a 1b and so on.

Then all i need to do is stop the script adding the seperator character so that when it next cycles through the script it just adds teh information to the same tag as before.

Anyone care to hazard a guess at how this could be done ?
