MetaData - Genre/ProviderStyle - needs a fix on BluOS

I have noticed on some of the discs i have ripped in WMA-Lossless that the BluOS seems to not pickup the Genre, but prefers to look at the ProviderStyle field (an ExtendedTag in the metadata).  But it's not consistent, so some albums are showing fine (in the Genre i set) but others are using the ProviderStyle extended tag info and so then show in a different Genre.

I was wondering if you can set the BluOS to not look at the ProviderStyle tag, but only look at the Genre tag, for Genre.  

There is a way around it (i.e. remove the ProvdierStyle extended tag) but it's a bit of mission on lots of discs and this will also help people in the future. 

Thanks :)

  WAV files are notorious for metadata tagging issues as there is no official standard for tags in WAV files. Have you considered ripping as proper FLAC files?

  Sorry, you must have mis-read, i have ripped in WMA-Lossless (Microsoft's Lossless format), not WAV. 
  
  It's not the metadata on the file (the WMA Lossless file holds all the right info), it's just BluOS seems to be reading the "ProviderStyle" tag instead of the "Genre" tag for some some albums.

  I have removed the ProviderStyle tag using Mp3Tag (but it isnt straight forward) - and it works - but it would be much easier for newbies or people with massive collections to have BluOS recognise it straight away.
