I figured out only today that ever since I use Mezzmo 5 any new FLAC record added with Mezzmo 5 gets its title and song information messed up..
It seems that the titles of the newly added records are always a mixup of two title-tags from the same record. This applies 100% consistenly to all records added since about the time I upgraded to Mezzmo 5.
Other players as e.g. WMP 12 or my Synology music server interpret the FLAC-tags of the same songs correctly. Also MP3tag shows that all tags are actually fine.
I attach
(1) a sample window from Mezzmo
(2) a sample window of WMP12 and
(3) a sample window of MP3tag
all showing the same record.
I have MP3tag pointing to the detailed tag information of one song (Ascension) that you can see displayed as 'Ascension;Strength of Mind' in Mezzmo. 'Strength of Mind' is title #4, 'Ascension' is title #12. If you follow the logic of Mezzmo mixing two title-tags from the same record for each song you can see this pattern repeating itself for the record selected here.
I could present you with each of the 12 or 13 records I have added since using Mezzmo 5 and all show the same pattern.
To see whether this is only affecting newly added music I have library maintenance with the flag for 'Update Metadata . . .'
Firstly no improvement for the newer record additions. Among my older library most record's information seems to stay intact but a few had their record title duplicated and single songs also show their title duplicated.
To repeat: I verified records with issues against my other FLAC players and they have no issue with the same tags whatsoever.
Best Regards
