Trying to make sure I am tagging correctly, I have some releases from the Artist μ‐Ziq and Picard wants to rename them to Mu‐Ziq.
Which one is the correct name for this artist? I prefer μ‐Ziq as that is the name the Artist chose but it seems as though that has been changed to Mu‐Ziq purely for convenience?
To complicate things further I use Lyrion (LMS) to play my music around the house and while LMS can find the Artist, μ‐Ziq (the folder containing a release), LMS fails to display the release that exists in that folder.
However, the most likely scenario is that the artist doesn’t consistently use the Greek artist credit across releases. To avoid this, and to keep Album Artist credits consistent across albums of the same artist, you’ll want to ensure you have “Use standardized artist names” enabled in Picard’s settings panel.
It sounds like the nonstandard character ‘μ’ might create a lot of problems for different systems. To hazard a guess, that’s probably why Picard uses ‘Mu‐Ziq’ for folder names.
It’s possibly safe to leave ‘μ‐Ziq’ in the metadata tags? Compared to folder and file names. But you’d have to test with your player/s.
