My music collection is mostly FLAC files. I have noticed that the scanners do not read the genre tag from FLAC files (Vorbis comments). I've tried lots of different setting configurations and searched all over the forums. The scanner correctly pulls the genre from my AAC files, but ignores this tag on the FLAC files. Rather than manually editing my collection to add the genres, it would be hugely appreciated if support could be added to utilize the genre tag already on my media.
Ugh, I didn't read the other thread thoroughly enough. It appears this may already be fixed...

Perhaps someone can confirm this? I have been waiting for this feature forever...
