Hello,
I pair my library with an iPod classic 160GB, it works great almost no problem, the only problem is the "ignore words" option doesn't work for the artist in my iPod classic, I get this option modify the sort artist tag, but it doesn't seem to be recognized by the iPod classic while synchronizing with iTunes actually makes words like "The" or "A" to be ignored properly.
I saw there is option called "replace artist tag with:" that I thought for a moment would do the trick but it doesn't, when I set it to "display artist", nothing changes and when I select "sort artist", it does work but it really "just simply" replace the artist tag (the one displayed on the iPod menu) by the sort artist tag which is pretty ugly in my opinion, mostly since I use a very particular way to prompt a few of my artists (those with non romanic characters), I use parenthesis which look terrible with the sort artist tag.
So is there any way to make this to work as I want? I already tried the iPod/iPhone driver plugin, it doesn't work, at least it doesn't fix the issue I'm having.
And by the way, I saw on another thread Steven doesn't really want to put much effort into synchronisation with apple devices mostly because iTunes driver are copyrighted or something like that and so it's not possible to add and remove manually files to the iPod, but is there any option to completely reset the whole library because it isn't possible through the iPod classic itself (or I don't know how to do it) and the only way I know is by iTunes again.
Thanks in advance for your future answers.
