Album Shows Up Wrong
Maybe this is more of a requested feature but, I would really like the following:
Whatever is in the MP3 Tag concerning album, artist, title, track and year is LAW. I hate it when it comes up with a different album when it looks
for the image album. If it can't find the album, that is OK, I can import the image.
Also, I want to turn off case fixing. I don't see an option to take care of that.
I have taken a few months and made sure the tags on all MP3s were correct and I don't want to mess those up.
Thanks.

Turning off the case fixing is easy. Just checkmark "disable case fixing" in the dialogue box that appears when you rebuilding your
database.

cbsoundman, I totally agree with you too!
I also hate wrong album covers. So I always use my own images.
Anyway, I'm HAPPY, even if I proceed this way!
Yes, I also hope for a GENERAL option to turn off case fixing, everywhere in eJukebox.
Audiosoft already know my reasons: Because of French - and Europeans! - languages DIFFERENT cases fixing...
Good luck!

just a little annoying thing that i noticed that i can't find a thread to stick it in - so i'll post it here (and hope it hasn't been
mentioned before) ... when an album title is really long the box around the album art is stretched to fit the long title. Which means the album art is
sitting in the middle of a really big white box. It would be better if ejukebox cut it off at a certain point so this didn't happen. (don't
ask me why a band would name an album "Vivadixiesubmarinetranmissionplot" Any more thoughts on this?

Do you have the "Scroll Long Text" option checked? (Albums - Options - Display Options - Scroll Long Text)

oh yeah i know that works... all the movement tends to slow my computer down though, so i pretty much leave it unchecked. It's not a big
complaint, just a small issue is all

v3.53's album list will allow you hide the album text that appears under every album. So that you just have your covers and you can see the album
title and artist text on the album list bar. This will make the album list lighter so it will work faster.

Interesting. I see what you mean. This sounds like a good option.
It even might bring more attention to the album art. A bit like seeing a film without subtitles (here in norway, all foreign films are subtitled)...
you pay more attention to the acting, instead of reading your way through the dialogue of the movie.

I see when you add new songs using the "Add New Songs" under the tools button, it does case-fix the album (or should I call it case-break).
I would like to be able to turn that off.
Thanks.

Yes, i agree with you cbsoundman,
I would like too an option to choose to case-fix or not when I use the "Add New Songs" menu.
I haved already requested that, because once where I have added lots of new albums at the same time using the "Add New Songs" menu, as there
is no option to choose if you want or not to apply the case fixing in the dialog box, i have simply forgotten that eJukebox goes to apply the
casefixing! ...and all my new albums have been altered! While i haved already spend a lot of time to fixe the tags manually... very frustrating!
I hope this time Audiosoft will pay more attention to this issue.
Thanks.

Why not just move the "Don't perform case fixing" from the Update Database dialogue to somewhere in the general settings?
Then it would apply for both normal updating as well as in the ”add new songs” function., and it would look simpler for new users.

Yes junk, i haved also already requested that to Audiosoft...
But i think they fear we turn off the casefixing, definitively... because it's forgotten somewhere in the options.
So if they want to bring out that eJukebox have a great casefixe option, I am not against... for my English albums! But in case of my french albums
it's not adapted, at all!
So, i would be happy with the casefix option in the 2 menus...
I think you understand the thing because you may have the same problem with your native language...
