I just wanted to say that I think that using the semi-colon to designate multiple classification possibilities is F*CKING BRILLIANT and should immediately be adopted by all media players as an ISO standard. It's such a load off my mind, not having to decide where I'm going to classify an artist who is "on the fence" as far as musical styles.

ok, try this out. Perhaps my last ; was the problem. :))

i.e. if I have a track with a genre of: Alternative; Rock
it will show up under the "Alternative" genre as well as the "Rock" genre.

MM already parses multi values for the genre field as spacefish indicated. What makes you think it isn't working correctly?

That was quick :o

yes, i did indeed select the genre. I entered it like this in the field > hardrock; heavymetal; etc.
I use 3.03.

If Mediamonkey can do that already, that would be great. :)

The same track will appear once in the each Genre node.

Does not do the job.
If i want to select the genre, it does it not display. It only works for once genre. :(

Howdy,
i really think Multiple Genre should be included since some Interprets apply to different genres and not only one.
Not sure if that's already on a list, but if not it should be included :)
