I read two questions:


1. Why are common music files not properly tagged when ripped by VortexBox?


I do not know the answer to this. Some users have good luck with tags...

Andrew,


On the forum home page you state:

Do I need to enter service vortexbox-player start ?

Will this give me two players to pic from or will it
stop squeezeslave?
