ID3v2.4 tags multiple genres - GertS - 2025-02-14
In ID3v2.4 tags, how can specify multiple genres by separating ; or , None of it works - Does anyone here have an idea? - thanks in advance Gert

In the settings for your music library, there is a setting at the bottom to specify custom tag separators.
I believe you have to rescan and replace all metadata once you enable that setting.

ID3v2.4 has its own spec-defined way of storing multi value tags and the usage of custom characters like
; or , are non-standard behaviors. To enable split by those non-standard characters you need to explicitly enable it in the library options.

Thank you for your response – I have looked at it. I am in the process of updating my music library. I will get back to you whether it succeeds or if I need your help again.

Hello again - I have tried to do as you suggested - no effect.
I write genre as the following example: Brazilian, Jazz, Bossa Nova
Is that what makes it end wrong?
Kind regards GertS
