Clean metadata is crucial to ensure that song titles, artists and covers are displayed correctly in players, apps and on websites. The most common mistake: radios or systems attach their own additional texts, which leads to broken covers, incorrect titles or unusable song information. <\/p>\n\n
Note:<\/strong> The song title is a linked title<\/strong>. If no background information can be found for a song, the link will still remain (no additional song details will be displayed). <\/p>\n\n Ideally, metadata is structured in this clear standard format:<\/p>\n\n \n This format is compatible with most systems and ensures a clean assignment of artist, title and cover.\n <\/p>\n\n \n We know that some radios want to add their own information (e.g. slogans, moderation notes, promotions, times).\n However, these additions can interfere with recognition and thus damage covers, titles and content<\/strong>.\n <\/p>\n\n Typical effects<\/strong><\/p>\n\n If you absolutely want to attach additional information, please use this format.<\/p>\n\n \n Important:<\/strong> Everything that comes after Result:<\/strong> The system only processes Best:<\/strong> Use the pipe format: It is automatically cut off. This keeps the song title and cover clean and clear. <\/p>\n\n This is often due to “dirty” metadata (e.g. additional texts without clear separation). As a result, the song cannot be clearly recognized and the cover is not correctly assigned. <\/p>\n\n \n The title remains a link. If no background information is available, no additional details are displayed. \n <\/p>\n\n \n Avoid unnecessary additions directly in the title, e.g. advertising texts, emojis, long orgy of brackets or alternating separators.\n If additional information is required: always separate via <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Clean metadata is crucial to ensure that song titles, artists and covers are displayed correctly in players, apps and on websites.

\n\nRecommended metadata format<\/h2>\n\n
ARTIST - TITLE<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
\n\nWhy additional texts cause problems<\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n\nSolution: Separate additional information with “|” (pipe format)<\/h2>\n\n
ARTIST - TITLE | TEXT<\/code><\/pre>\n\n|<\/code> is automatically cut off.\n This means that the title and cover are no longer affected<\/strong>.\n <\/p>\n\nExamples<\/h3>\n\n
\n
Daft Punk - One More Time | Radio Edit<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\nAdele - Hello | Jetzt neu bei uns<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\nColdplay - Viva La Vida | Gewinnspiel<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\nARTIST - TITLE<\/code> internally. The additional text remains optional without destroying the metadata recognition. <\/p>\n\n
\n\nFrequently asked questions (FAQ)<\/h2>\n\n
Which metadata format is optimal?<\/h3>\n\n
ARTIST - TITLE<\/code>. This is the cleanest standard and minimizes errors in title and cover recognition. <\/p>\n\nI want to send additional information. How do I do this correctly? <\/h3>\n\n
ARTIST - TITLE | TEXT<\/code>. Everything after |<\/code> is automatically removed and no longer interferes. <\/p>\n\nWhat happens to text after the “|”?<\/h3>\n\n
Why is my cover sometimes not displayed?<\/h3>\n\n
The song title is linked. What if no song information is found? <\/h3>\n\n
