Windows Home Server 2011, allows the technique to potentially overwrite you album art & music metadata without authorisation, Microsoft have today posted an advisory note on the TechNet Wiki. The wiki post acknowledges the issue (as the company did historicallyin the past on Microsoft Connect) & provides the same workaround steps as historicallyin the past published to switch off the scheduled task to blame.
Also acknowledged in the wiki post is another media related issues that have been identified with WHS 2011 - "Repeat" button does not function for single file streaming from Remote Web Access Page & The media file will still be displayed in the media player, after they have been moved to a new folder. The first issue has been identified as a bug due to the Repeat feature not being activated in the product for single file playback whilst the second issue is the result of Windows Media Player indexes not being updated after media files are moved. Doh.
With regard to the metadata issue, public acknowledgement as well as a workaround are great, but not a permanent solution. Microsoft needs a fix in place to make sure a Dashboard control is made obtainable to switch metadata synchronisation on or off and make sure the default is set to off.
In other news, Microsoft abandons correct spelling, English grammar and proof-reading for support documentation.
