see if you can get anything out of that.

i'll peek.. can't lose anything by it..

ok, stupid question... nothing says, or lookslike, a log

lol

What's the log say?

hmmmmmmm... don't see anything interesting. where it crashes it just shows file 12 added, file 13 added, file 0 added.... so i can see WHERE it crashed, but it simple stops writing to the log, then starts up again when i re-start it...

doesn't say anything about the crash...

can you make any of the offending files available?

and looking at the last files froma few crashes, they are ones i have gotten good tags for on subsequent tries

how so?

so it can be tried on another computer, say put it up on a website or e-mail it?

i could.. but if it has eventually been tagged, would that help?

Hmmm.. in your logs, do it show the 'file has been saved to' info twice for every file?

doubtful, it would be best to see one that isn't currently working.

yeah, thats what i though.. i can eventually get them all to work... just takes several ries

tries

In my log it says file blah blah blah saved to: bla bla bla, and repeats yes.

ok.. wierd... LOL.. just wanted to be sure it was supposed to be that way...

Are the files on your local hard drive and not some network share?

yup, all local

jinxie: you're jinxed.

gee, thanks *wry grin*

well.. like i said, someone else has this prob too, so not just ME!

can you make one or some of the offending files available?

and it's not like it is annoying enough to keep me from using MB

It should be.

heck no! i'd be hand TAGing them otherwise...

too much typing

Do your files have special characters in the names?

nope...

have you tried uninstalling the tagger and going back to 10.3?

no... had same prob running 10.3

have you looked at your application log in the sevent viewer right click my computer -> manage -> event viewer -> application log?

ok.. THATS interesting... it says the error is in version 0.10.2.1

gonna try a total uninstall, and re-install 10.3

strange indeed, I wish ruaok were here.

hmmm... even better... it WAS 10.3 i originally installed... was thinking i may have gotten 10.2 and never noticed the 10.3 update, but no... weird

What is this Channel?

It's ABC's Wide World of sports.

it IS?? thought it was CNN?

no wait...It's ESPN

Oh wait, I think it's CSPAN.

The Thrill of victory.... and the agony of defeat...

and am beingnning to feel like that poor skier right now!

Baudelaire, I'd suggest trying www.musicbrainz.org, this channel is dedicated to the tagging and identification of audio files.

and it is all YOUR fault, blizzow... i was just fine with this bug till you came along..

sorry man.

Ummmm....

<--- woman

*grin*

Sorry Jinxie, you wouldn't be related to sphinxy would you?

or chick... wench... girl... whatever...

nope...

cool. sorry 'bout that.

the sausage factor on IRC is pretty high.

no probs.. nic isn't particularly genderific

i noticed.. lol

hmmmmmm... add/remove had proper version number for MB.. wonder if it was just an internal number that never got updated?

possibly. I would remove the program and then remove the musicbrainz tagger directory in program files if it's still there.

Then I'd do a search for not only mbtagger.exe but any tagger dll files out there. Make sure they're gone too.

icepick is now known as icepick-away

icepick-away is now known as icepick

Did that re-install work jinxie?

well... i'll find out.. *grin* just fed it all 573 of my filk files

somnaway is now known as somniloquy

hmmm.. bad choice... gonne have LOTS of data entry to do if it doesn't crash... LOL

filk?

folk music that never was, or might be in the future.. *S* usually based on SF/Fantasy

ah, yes, you might have a lot of data entry ahead of you. I only got about half of my classical collection identiefied by the tagger.

i am SOOOOOoooooooo glad i only have a few classicals... if you don't KNOW you have good info, not much you can do to get the right info... at least my stuff has lyrics i can search for

filk, eh? any bands i might know?

i was actually rathe surprised at the large amount of data MB has.. was thinking i'd have to do a whole lot more than i have had to... lotta people out there have good taste in music

usually not bands, just individual singers...have nearly all the Valdamar... lots of heather alexander.. kathy mar.. julia ecklar.. leslie fish

hm... never heard of any of them :(

any suggestion as to what i should look for to get a taste of it?

good stuff.. but you have to have that kinda taste... *S*

do you like SF/fanstasy books?

LOTS of comic stuff too

blizzow> i'm looking good, gone through over 100 without a prob... thanks

yep

i love fantasy and really like sci-fi

fave authors?

Roger Zelazny, Piers Anthony, Simon R. Green...

Tolkien, of course

sweet, I'm glad it's working for you now.

Hmmmmmm.. don't know any specificaly related... fairly comprehensive list here, http://www.geocities.com/justin_w_eiler/filk/in... can see if you recognise any titles... try some micheal longcor for hilarious comedy SCA-type... the others i named are mainly soft fantasy-type filk

blizzow> spoke too soon... *sigh*

cool, thanks

uh oh. Are you at 10.3 or 10.4?

10.3

think a hammer might help?? or baseball bat maybe??

a vorpal sword ;p

grin

I don't like the idea of asking you to upgrade to 10.4 but it might be an improvement if the jump from 10.2 to 10.3 was as well.

logger still saying there error is on 10.2.. and same dll faulted everytime...

die dll die!

I'd do a search on your hard drive for that dll and kill it manually.

so iff faulty dll was updated in .4 it might help...

exacatamundo.

yeah... death to ntdll.dll ... presuming that it IS a MB installed dll... anyone know for certain?

Added RepeatSeat season pass link to /tickets.

no I wouldn't delete that one just yet.

duh, just ignore soccos

ntdll.dll is a windows based file.

lol... not an expert here, but know enough NOT to delete dlls without being 100% certain tis safe...

It's possible yours is corrupt, but I'm not sure how you'd figure that one out.

hunt for it on google and see if i can download a good one.. *S*

says it's "NT Layer DLL"

i'm guessing deleting that might be a bad idea

lol

assuming you're on an NT based 'doze

XPsp1

same here

no idea if it'd work though... c_c

Google is my god.. he takes good care of me for i worship Him often

hehe

did you encode the mp3s yourself jinxie?

hmm... finding filk to download isn't proving to be particularly easy... :/

searching for specific artists in WinMX, DC++ and eMule i found nothing, then searching for just "filk" gave 6 results in WinMX, one of which was a pr0n movie

blizzow> ummmm.. of course... i would NEVER download them from WinMX or anything *totally and perfectly innocent look*

blizzow, are you one of the people behind MB and the tagger and stuff, btw?

somn> *nods* it's not rare, but not common either... be patient, grab what you can, use the URL i gave ya to find more artists...

jinxie, aye, will do. hopefully i'll actually find some stuff, and hopefully i'll like it ;)

No, but I give money to them and have been using it for a while now.

ah

any idea if there's going to be support for other formats, or plugins for other players?

hey, will the popup go away after i give them money?? *S* just got my taxes back *GRIN*

somn> most of it has a folk type feel... some of it is bootlegged from cons, so i kinda low quality, but there is some really great stuff out there too

no the popup never goes away.

Although there's a request for chocolate that comes up sometimes.

well i like some folk. some i don't. depends

Heather Alexander just did a CD Insh'Allah with some AWESOME celtic/middle eastern mixed stuff...based on an alternate history book 'Lion's Blood'

seen the chocolate request... wonder if they consider hershey's high quality chocolate??

i've been following links all over the place, and just arrived at Heather Alexander's site
