Re: Singers / Groups Missing from artist in edit songs

Yes they stopped adding the new artist to the bucket database some years ago.

You can make them appear in the editing and import dialogs but it makes the editing dialog take forever to open before you can use it.

If you open the Tools/Songs Database dialog at the bottom of that window is a tick box marked (Include Artist & Song titles from songs database) Ticking that should throw up a warning window regarding the time factor.

If you have a lot of editing to do it can be of help but not if you just want to edit the odd song.

It can take anything from 1.5 to 3.5 minutes to open the edit dialog depending on how many songs you have and how fast your computer is, if you get impatient waiting and click other buttons it can go into not responding mode.

Hope that helps.
