Powershell script for monthly archives

I am new in powershell and trying to find in the script to modify file creation from monthly to date wise however unable to find. Looking for little help or input.

Artist recorded at "Contributing Artist"

Hi,

Perhaps I'm using the script wrong but I'm trying to save an Artist field.
When i pass it

Set-ID3v1 -path $fileout -Title ("Breakfast Show "+$dayis_) -Artist "Chris Evans" -Album "Daily Breakfast Show"

The Artist is being saved by Windows as Contributing Artist and Album Artist is being left blank.
This is causing Plex to not read the meta data correctly.

Am I using this script wrong? was it designed to work this way?
