SDB.SongData.ParseText(...) doesn't work for the Artist, correct?
In the MainTracksWindows it is shown correctly after Parsing, but after refreshing, the Artist appeares untouched. For Title, ... it works well, thanks.

See http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... 6552#46552
Please empty the artist name (and best of all any field you expect to be filled in) before the function is called (i.e. track.ArtistName="").

Will this be fixed? If it doesn't work to only use (track.ArtistName=""), then sometimes big workarounds (some fields have blank values "", 0, -1, ... ) would need to be used if it's impossible to know what field will receive a value. If only setting (track.ArtistName="") is enough, then I can live with that workaround very well.

ParseText() is supposed to be used to fill in only empty fields (i.e. those that don't have any values set in tags). Therefore is works this way...
