PS I believe TPE2 - "Band/orchestra/accompaniment" is repurposed by iTunes, xbmc etc to store album artist

Hi doubledrat,

Welcome aboard!

Since you are already using PascalScript, I am assuming you only need the parameter's name.

The wiki should get you going.

Confirm?

oh I see: The list only contains artist for the track (file); not for the album.

Denis the wiki page contains far less ID3 tags compared to the master list in Wikipedia. So you may have to add some more ID3 tags also.

Same for EXIF tags also (see master list).
