    Naming Issue and How things show in PS Audio's eLyric software

    I am very new to computer audio but just finished burning my entire CD collection via one of two rippers.

    I first started with iTunes, but was having album artwork issues with that, plus some errors were making making it through on some rips.

    So that is when I purchased dBPoweramp back in June which I greatly preferred to iTunes.

    I burn directly to my Synology NAS, and I use two types of software to play the files with primarily. One is Sonos stuff for whole house audio, and I actually have no issues with anything there. Everything displays perfectly. It is my other software from PS Audio called eLyric which is just much more rudimentary software than Sonos. I believe it just basically displays what it is fed without any edits.

    This PS Audio is in my good stereo system, and I am having an issue with the way songs are displaying, I guess that is called "Naming"

    On iTunes ripped stuff, it display like this:

    "song"/"artist"
    [SIZE=1]"artist"[/SIZE]

    So the second artist below the top line is in a different size and shading. This shows up great in the eLyric player.

    But then the stuff ripped via dBpoweramp displays like this:
    "track number" "artist" - "song"
    [SIZE=1]<unknown>[/SIZE]

    This display is really tough to deal with, as the unknown confuses the software, so it typically displays info from the previous album ripped via iTunes. And on play lists, if the artist's name is long you can't even see the song title.

    So my question is how do I get dBpoweramp to display tracks like iTunes does?
    Secondly, since I've ripped everything already, can I do this without having to re-rip?

    Thanks for the help

      Aiff for dBPoweramp

      iTunes I was doing Apple Lossless primarily.

        You would have to try Apple Lossless from dBpoweramp, often different programs read tags from different formats differently, it sounds like eLyric cannot read tags from AIFF so is just showing filename.
