I tag my files as per images
no
Local files
In Roon I don’t have any data from PERSONNEL tags
I am not a big file tagger but according to the documentation you seem to need one PERSONNEL tag per person.
The general format of the PERSONNEL tag is “name - credit_role” and the credit role in the tag must match one of the recognized Roon credit roles.
Compare You can now add credits using file tags! here:
TagScanner which is the software I use to tag my files does not allow me to create multiple TAGs with the same name. From the instructions you linked it seems that you can manage the TAG Personnel but it does not work for me.
It worked for someone else by following the instructions and using separate PERSONNEL tags here a few days ago:
Using one PERSONNEL tag per artist seems generally a common thing to do. If your tagger is limited in this regard, maybe try another one?
Ok, I try with other tagging software. Thank’s
Good luck 
Ok, with MP3TAG all works.
Another question:
on one of my disk on Artist I have Bill Evans (pianist) but Roon link my tag to Bill Evans (Saxophonist). How can I change this link?
Great.
Did you have the pianist Bill Evans as a credit on an identified album in your library when you imported the new album? If you didn’t, the most likely outcome is that Roon creates a duplicate artist with the same name (from the file tag) that has no metadata and is not linked to the real Bill Evans (pianist) entry. But even if you did, it can happen that Roon links it to a different artist of the same name, if your album isn’t identified (which you wrote it is not) - because if the album is not identified, Roon has no way to know what the correct artist is, and sometimes picks the wrong one.
In this case, first make sure that you have the correct Bill Evans (pianist) already in your library (or else Roon will not find it during editing). Then change the credit by going to the album view and clicking Edit:
Go to Edit Album, scroll down, click Edit Credits:
Remove the wrong Evans and add the right one.
The album editing edits the album credits, if any. You may have track credits as well. To edit those, select the tracks (or several tracks, or all tracks) in the track list and then click Edit in the multiselection menu:
Then go to Edit Tracks for editing the track artists.
If you go to the album’s Credit tab, the artist pictures will also have a link below, saying “All Tracks” or “1 Track”, etc., indicating the tracks an artist is credited on. You can click those and the track list will only display these tracks. This makes it easier to select and edit only these tracks.
Coming back to the issue mentioned before, where artists get duplicated if you import an album and the credited artists are not yet in your library (by having an identified album in the library with the proper artist entries): See the recent post of mine that I linked below. In this post, you find a link to another, older thread with one aspect of the problem. And the older thread has further links to other discussions of various aspects of this problem and how to work around it:
Ok, I decided to re-import my library because I was not satisfied with the tags of the current one (with more than 2000 records) so I have very few records in this new library and Bill Evans (piano) is not there yet. Now I upload a record with Bill Evans (piano) and correct the link. Thanks for everything.
Great, I’m happy that helped, thanks for letting me know
