I have seen references to a B2 wish list. Hopefully there is such a thing and if so then I would like to add a request to it. 

I think it would be great if the B2 supported ID Tags. By support I mean write them when ripping a new CD, the ability to load them from other programs such as MP3TAG and the ability to use them to select tracks and create playlists.

Maybe a wish list could be posted and users "vote" to help steer the development plans?

Regards

John

It does have a "tagging" function - but I am not sure how developed this is or what it does. it is to be found in the "Maintenance menu"

I was aware of the limited tagging capability of the B2 and I'm hoping it would be relatively easy to build on that.

It's my understanding that currenty, via NAS, you can use mp3tag to add whatever tagging information you want.  The B2 itself doesn't do anything with that information., but it will be there for use by such things as Sonos.

I use tags extensively for my collection that I have loaded into my B2, it would be nice if I could use those tags directly with the B2. The fact the tags are there but not used is a bit of a frustration for me.

You are not alone.  I'm sure this is already on the Wish List.
