Serato and Contributing Artist Problem

[djcarve]

Hi guys,
My problem is that Serato only reads the "contributing artists" and not "album artists" When I look at the file using windows, right click, properties, details, I see 'contributing artist" and "artist" but Serato reads "contributing" which is not a default field in MP3tag. If I add Contributing Artist, it does not update the field within the file name. In my example, you can see mp3 tag open and also the file viewer within windows. Does this make sense? Thanks

AFAIK is the "contributing artist" that what can be found in ARTIST in MP3tag.
If that Serato device refuses to read ALBUMARTIST I suspect it reads only V1 tags. So you would have to set MP3tag to wrie V1 tags.
