Adding M4V/MP4 to music collection


Recommended Posts

Posted

Many albums today include both audio and video tracks (e.g., Beyoncé latest album: http://www.amazon.com/Beyonc%C3%A9-Explicit-video-Beyonce/dp/B00HFWY75K/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1392938792&sr=8-3&keywords=beyonce+beyonce).

 

I just realized that MBS already somewhat supports that (video tracks are part of the album and can be played). Unfortunately, its tags are not being read and also no other information. As a result, the following information is unavailable for video tracks:

 

* Track name (shows file name rather than tag name)

* Track number (does not read from tag, so nothing shows up)

* Artist and album artist (does not read from tag, so nothing shows up)

 

 

Would be fantastic to see a fix there. Maybe that's already included in the upcoming server release? Given that the methodology of reading tags is exactly the same for MP3, MP4 and M4V, it may take as little as adding MP4/M4V as the list of supported files?

 

Thanks in advance!!
