One capital letter T missing, that's all it takes - and I've checked the source tags in my collection, and they are correct (ripped it myself to WMA from the CDs)Īlthough this app looks handy, I still do not have faith in applications that "Do it for you" and here's why:ġ. I have numerous albums where a few songs are missing because the capitalization is different - for example Foo Fighters' There Is Nothing Left To Lose has a few tracks listed under a different album "There Is Nothing Left to Lose". It would be far better if it could detect where the user had edited the data and used that to fix the info in Xbox Music, rather than relying on some pretty inaccurate data. It would be great if you could turn ON Smart DJ but turn OFF all the song information, artist and album image mangling. The music+videos app has a setting "Connect with Xbox Music", described as "Makes your music and video experience great by updating song information, downloading artist and album images, turning on Smart DJ, and more".
Unfortunately those internet services are all too often inaccurate - and it undoes some hard work by the user fixing the incorrect information in the first place. It goes off and checks internet services for the 'correct' tags. Then, whenever you play music, your lockscreen and Xbox Music icon will change to the now-playing artist image that you chose. You go into the lockscreen settings, and you choose the option to show the artist art while music is playing. After you pick all of the ones you want, there's a "download" button to attach them. You can then select the image for each artist (if you don't like the chosen one) and get a differetn one.
You'll get an image attachment for each artist (there are rare cases where they are not there, but I think I only had that occur with one artist). You tell it to do that, and it will grab the art from last.fm's artist database. I've done both, and the auto option is the better way.
Swinsian inserts wrong album art manual#
You can either do the manual attachment, which involves doing each artist separately (which is slower), or you can do the auto-attach method. The album art thing is fully automated, but the artist art is a bit more cumbersome (well, slow, if you have a lot of artists in your collection). It depends on what you want to do with it.
