But it _is_ in your script? I edited the .INC file to get the aforementioned to work, but I don't know how to get `OutputTo "ALBUMARTISTSORT"` specifically to work. Unless I'm misunderstanding something… ---

@AreDigg _This_ is what I mean by your script can't handle any albums whose `OutputTo "ALBUMARTIST"` contains "Various Artists": ![image](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/e/ec385de69d19f5d6f24d516cb9236ee84a4f35ab.png) On iTunes, the album artist is "Various Artists & Wendy Carlos": ![image](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/2/2363a50483d4c80f5ff747a8faaaf7dba5d011aa.png) ---

Yes, that is by design, but I can see if I will make some changes to address this kind of cases. ---

I can get the tag data by using "AppleMusic.inc" published by AreDigg yesterday, but when I get it from Japanese AppleMusic, I get the string "年" after the album artist's name and "\ミュージック" after the genre. I am not very familiar with scripts and do not know what to do. Can someone please fix it for me? ![スクリーンショット (11)](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/c/ccf3e00ff48c83412c34ef9412020ad28b81f492.png) ---

> [@Ikamusume](#): > > Can someone please fix it for me? I should be able to fix that, you can also go in settings and choose single genre, then only the genre name and not the music part will show. Apple have "music" as a genre, I have removed it for a few languages, but haven't gotten to all. But single genre will always show the first only. The album artist I have to take a look at, it is supposed to remove a year (the string I use for album artist includes the year, and I use a regex, but only for the digits and the delimiting dot, but I see that in Japanese there is also a character for the year). ---

Hi, I am having trouble with the `%YEAR%` field not displaying correctly in Apple Music due to the formatting applied by the script. The `%RELEASETIME%` tag is displaying fine. In Mp3tag the `%YEAR%` displays as `2014-01-01T00:00:00.000Z` but should be `2014-01-01T00:00:00Z`. Is there a way to format the tag correctly in the script? ```json json_select_object "data" IfNot "" json_select_object "seoData" OutputTo "YEAR" json_select "musicReleaseDate" SayNChars 21 SayNextNumber Say "|" OutputTo "RELEASETIME" json_select "musicReleaseDate" SayNChars 8 SayNextNumber Say "|" ``` Also, I can't get the `Year` field to display a value in the search results dialog. I can get the column to display, just not the value for each result ![image](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/3X/a/a/aafcf40f67a725e773f177f295c0fb4e01879fde.jpeg) I believe the script is not getting the correct timestamp as the timestamp is always `T00:00:00.000Z`. ---

> [@djdizzle](#): > > I am having trouble with the `%YEAR%` field not displaying correctly in Apple Music due to the formatting applied by the script. Is this your own modifications you want to have fixed? The date is provided directly without modification from the data provided by Apple. But it is possible to reformat it, the easy one is to use `Replace ".000Z" "Z"` as I am sure it will always be zeros. If you think the timestamp is incorrect, you have to contact Apple. > [@djdizzle](#): > > Also, I can't get the `Year` field to display a value in the search results dialog. No wonder. Where do you expect that year should come from? ---

I have been trying to incorporate the TOTALDISCS value in the DISCNUMBER value field separated by "/" (e.g. 1/2, 2/4, etc.) and the TOTALTRACKS value in the TRACKS value field, also separated by "/" (e.g. 2/7, 1/4, etc.). What should I change in the script to get this to work? ---

For discs you could use an Action, for tracks just combine the values with a '/' between. ---

What audio format are you using? The m4a format doesn't permit the total to be included in the disc and track fields. [Previous page](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/ws-apple-music/51184.md?page=18) [Next page](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/ws-apple-music/51184.md?page=20)
