AC/DC - slash artist problem with MP3 - Hagu - 12-08-2022 08:24

We have two albums from AC/DC, one with FALC und one with MP3 data.
Both Albums are tagged with artist AC/DC but MinimServer converts AC/DC to AC,DC - only in case of MP3 - not with FALC data.
Only the MinimServer shows this convertion problem with MP3, I compared it with other servers.

MP3 files use either ID3v2.3 or ID3v2.4 for tagging. In ID3v2.3, the / character is used as a separator between multiple artist names, so it appears to MinimServer that this album has two artists AC and DC.

This problem is fixed in ID3v2.4, so the best solution is to update your ID3v2.3 tags to ID3v2.4. Most tagging programs provide a simple way to do this.

Oh, thank you very much!
Easy to change from ID3v2.3 to ID3v2.4 with mp3Tag.

Indeed I use the characters , or & between multiple artist names - the / inside AC/DC is uncommon.
