[slinkelist] Field Size

[Nirvis Help (Colby)]

CDJ obtains title an artist information from either the ID3 tag in the MP3
file or failing that, it gets the title from the filename itself. I renamed
one of my MP3s to match what you mention below. I didn't see any truncation
of the name. Does the file have a short ID3 tag version of the track name?
This would explain it....
