So I just got my SB and loaded SC on my PC and all of my files showed up categorizied properly except a bunch of my FLACs. When I was searching around on the SC, there was an artist category "No Artist", and when I open that, there are all of the flac files I am missing. I am guessing the problem is that these are not tagged properly, is that correct? And if so, what is the best/easiest to implement method for tagging them?
Thanks...

I am pretty impressed so far. Pretty slick device and the interface, while not as slick as ITunes is fantastic (and this is more a statement of how great a program ITunes is, not that SqueezeCenter is lacking in any way). Once I figure out this FLAC issue, it will be truly sick

i use masstagger in fb2k.

so I guess what you gus are saying is that the reason these dont show up in squeezecenter is because they arent tagged FLACs properly? :P

Nick,
I just went through the exact same thing. Love the SB Duet - has changed how i listen to music.
I went through a bit of pain setting it up - first security settings on my wireless network, then converting ~ a TB of shn files then ensuring everything was tagged correctly, album art attached...so on and so forth....but boy was it worth it.
Aaaanyhoo, I suspect this little post may help you: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35676

check out the live show tagger for foobar2k - it will tag the files based on the source info file - very easy to use as long as the .txt file is formatted right

grab dbpoweramp converter - you can go directly from SHN > FLAC to save yourself a step

Yeah, I told him I had cash in hand and would come to his house after work (a few hours) to pick up. Never heard from him...
Oh well... Better off... If I had spent that $170, I wouldn't have been able to buy the Vintage Crossbows and Catapults on EBAY last week: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/2129#desc

alright got most of the FLACs tagged and they came up in squeezecenter....I know most here know this, but this is a pretty slick device...not sure why I havent gotten one before now
-
i'm out of the loop these days, but is squeezecenter the new interface for playback?
btw i love the squeezebox classic, i just need to figure out how to properly stream the music to my office now. And I use FB2K to tag files, works great!

Yeah, I haven't figured this out yet either. I've called a slimdevices a couple of times and I still can't figure it out.

The Squeezebox is a remote playback device that receives streaming audio over a wired or wireless network from SlimServer (or is it SqueezeCenter these days?). SoftSqueeze allows you to use a computer as a remote playback device either within your home over a wired or wireless network, or over the internet. And the playback on the computer is synchronized with the playback on the Squeezebox and other remote playback devices.

so is this a way to listen to all those live shows on a HD without burning CD's
I am looking for a system that can take my HD full of music and play them instead of all these CD/s
help?

Yes, the Squeezebox plays FLAC files directly off your HD. Wireless or wired
