        Can I tag files with a MusicBrainz ID without changing the Artist/Track labels?
      • 2005-01-27 02718, 2005

      • cikkolata
        hmm... I don't know how.
      • 2005-01-27 02720, 2005

      • Knio
        not with the mbtagger, currently
      • 2005-01-27 02752, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        Alright. Worst-case, can I change them back afterwards?
      • 2005-01-27 02703, 2005

      • cikkolata
        by hand?
      • 2005-01-27 02707, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        Yeah..
      • 2005-01-27 02715, 2005

      • cikkolata
        no reason why not
      • 2005-01-27 02724, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        Without having it RE-change them the next time I scan, though
      • 2005-01-27 02742, 2005

      • cikkolata
        why would you need to?
      • 2005-01-27 02748, 2005

      • cikkolata
        (rescan them, that is)
      • 2005-01-27 02729, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        next time I add more music to my library... Do I have to pick out just the new files by hand, or does it flip through to find anything that doesn't have a MB tag yet?
      • 2005-01-27 02704, 2005

      • cikkolata
        I'm not sure, I don't use the windows tagger :/
      • 2005-01-27 02747, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        I guess I should just download it and try it on a folder... Do you use iTunes on your mac?
      • 2005-01-27 02731, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        I'm using it for Windows, I'm just wondering how confused it gets when everything in its library has new tags... I seem to remember that it just updates it when you go to play the file.
      • 2005-01-27 02746, 2005

      • cikkolata
        I don't use a mac either :p
      • 2005-01-27 02752, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        Sorry X3

      • 2005-01-27 02735, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        Well, simple question then.. I remember reading something in the FAQ about filenames with underscores in them... does the tagger rename files? Because that would definately be a pain x.x
      • 2005-01-27 02738, 2005

      • cikkolata
        I've used itunes a few times, but it generally falls into the category of all apple stuff "how the fuck does this work? this is retarded!"
      • 2005-01-27 02749, 2005

      • cikkolata
        it can, but doesn't have to
      • 2005-01-27 02753, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        OK, phew.
      • 2005-01-27 02759, 2005

      • cikkolata
        there should be an option somewhere
      • 2005-01-27 02740, 2005

      • DJKC
        there's an options about whether or not it renames them
      • 2005-01-27 02756, 2005

      • DJKC
        and you can just add drop the new music on it to be tagged without having it scan your whole collection
      • 2005-01-27 02758, 2005

      • cikkolata
        morning DJKC
      • 2005-01-27 02703, 2005

      • DJKC
        just don't add your root music dir is all
      • 2005-01-27 02706, 2005

      • DJKC
        cikkolata: moin
      • 2005-01-27 02738, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        Just seems more complicated to go in and pick out the new ones..
      • 2005-01-27 02754, 2005

      • DJKC
        RavenWorks: I just drop songs on it from my player myself
      • 2005-01-27 02756, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        iTunes sorts everything into folders by artist, so it's not like I can just sort my music folder by date added
      • 2005-01-27 02708, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        Can you do that kind of drag-and-dropping on a PC?
      • 2005-01-27 02710, 2005

      • DJKC
        you can sort in iTunes by date added
      • 2005-01-27 02715, 2005

      • Knio
        you can tell itunes not to do that
      • 2005-01-27 02723, 2005

      • DJKC
        dropping from foobar works
      • 2005-01-27 02730, 2005

      • DJKC
        I drop into mb tagger, iTunes, and mirc fine
      • 2005-01-27 02737, 2005

      • DJKC
        no idea if iTunes itself supports that
      • 2005-01-27 02746, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        I'll try iTunes.. .I know you can do it on a mac, I didn't think Windows had drag and drop support like that
      • 2005-01-27 02712, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        well I'll be damned, it does work :P This has been worth the trip already. XD

      • 2005-01-27 02757, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        So basically, the tagger should give me a list of all the songs it doesn't recognize, asking if I want to upload the info of some of them?
      • 2005-01-27 02717, 2005

      • DJKC
        ?
      • 2005-01-27 02725, 2005

      • DJKC
        If you tag it with the tagger
      • 2005-01-27 02728, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        yeah.
      • 2005-01-27 02737, 2005

      • DJKC
        then it uploads the TRM info to everything you tag
      • 2005-01-27 02744, 2005

      • DJKC
        not just the new ones
      • 2005-01-27 02755, 2005

      • DJKC
        oh, if it's not in the DB, no, it doesn't ask you to upload the info in the tagger
      • 2005-01-27 02701, 2005

      • DJKC
        have to do that via the website
      • 2005-01-27 02711, 2005

      • DJKC
        can't just submit album/artist info direct from tags, unfortuneately
      • 2005-01-27 02751, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        so I'll just copy/paste the MB ID it gave the file, and fill everything else in?
      • 2005-01-27 02730, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        can I only view the MB tag with the tagger program?
      • 2005-01-27 02747, 2005

      • cikkolata
        no
      • 2005-01-27 02756, 2005

      • cikkolata
        anything that can read all ID3 tags can read them
      • 2005-01-27 02705, 2005

      • cikkolata
        but most only show a handful
      • 2005-01-27 02709, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        Is there anywhere on the site that has this kind of info? I looked around the wiki and stuff but it's mostly tech support, I'm not sure where I should be going with questions like this but I hate to just sit here and waste everyone's time by asking :P
      • 2005-01-27 02727, 2005

      • DJKC
        not that I'm aware
      • 2005-01-27 02727, 2005

      • cikkolata
        if you don't waste my time, I'll only waste it myself :p
      • 2005-01-27 02732, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        ;P
      • 2005-01-27 02737, 2005

      • DJKC
        there's not a lot of docs for the tagger because it's being replaced
      • 2005-01-27 02740, 2005

      • DJKC
        ... slowly
      • 2005-01-27 02758, 2005

      • cikkolata
        well, it's not moving at all right now
      • 2005-01-27 02705, 2005

      • cikkolata
        but only 'cause of other stuff
      • 2005-01-27 02700, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        any iTunes Windows users who know if the windows audioscrobbler plugin does indeed read the MB tags? Because that's the entire reason I'm doing this, but the iTunes Windows audioscrobbler plugin is kindof lacking in a lot of ways...
      • 2005-01-27 02731, 2005

      • cikkolata
        they're supposed to send mb info when it exists, I thought
      • 2005-01-27 02736, 2005

      • cikkolata
        so they should...
      • 2005-01-27 02737, 2005

      • DJKC
        it does
      • 2005-01-27 02739, 2005

      • DJKC
        however
      • 2005-01-27 02746, 2005

      • DJKC
        I can't remember if AS does anything with it yet
      • 2005-01-27 02704, 2005

      • DJKC
        I remember Russ mentioning purging all they had a while ago, but that was 3-4 months back
      • 2005-01-27 02719, 2005

      • DJKC
        I think it just saves it and does nothing with it at the moment, it may be being discarded entirely
      • 2005-01-27 02730, 2005

      • DJKC
        like how album tags are sent but ignored
      • 2005-01-27 02738, 2005

      • cikkolata
        ahh
      • 2005-01-27 02742, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        ah, shoot...
      • 2005-01-27 02743, 2005

      • cikkolata
        so that's why I never see albums
      • 2005-01-27 02753, 2005

      • DJKC
        well
      • 2005-01-27 02758, 2005

      • DJKC
        if you to the last.fm interface
      • 2005-01-27 02706, 2005

      • cikkolata
        ?
      • 2005-01-27 02711, 2005

      • DJKC
        it lists top albums, but only ones actually available for listen on last.fm are possible
      • 2005-01-27 02722, 2005

      • DJKC
        and it just kind of rough matches what you send to what's there
      • 2005-01-27 02723, 2005

      • cikkolata
        I meant in the profile editor
      • 2005-01-27 02729, 2005

      • DJKC
        oh
      • 2005-01-27 02742, 2005

      • DJKC
        in the profile editor too, unless you can listen to the album on last.fm
      • 2005-01-27 02746, 2005

      • DJKC
        it's not going to be there
      • 2005-01-27 02715, 2005

      • cikkolata
        dammit. gmpc really wants me to listen to l'ame immortelle
      • 2005-01-27 02729, 2005

      • cikkolata
        as if they weren't already all over my top lists...
      • 2005-01-27 02712, 2005

      • DJKC
        oh, and moderations completely screw with the profile editor too
      • 2005-01-27 02734, 2005

      • DJKC
        so it has to be on last.fm and under a non-moderated name or be the name it was moderated to, if that makes sense
      • 2005-01-27 02750, 2005

      • DJKC
        BoA for example lists albums for me, but Bjork doesn't because of the umlaut mods
      • 2005-01-27 02700, 2005

      • cikkolata
        ah
      • 2005-01-27 02748, 2005

      • DJKC
        so basically if you don't listen to last.fm much it's not going to list albums in the editor
      • 2005-01-27 02756, 2005

      • cikkolata
        I haven't at all :/
      • 2005-01-27 02730, 2005

      • DJKC
        http://www.last.fm/user/djkc/ I haven't much. most of the top albums listed there are from matching what I've played to what they have
      • 2005-01-27 02741, 2005

      • DJKC
        also, it says subscription info right on the main page there still.
      • 2005-01-27 02748, 2005

      • DJKC
        easier to find than on the AS side then, since you were asking
      • 2005-01-27 02729, 2005

      • RavenWorks
        ALrightie then... I'm gonna download the tagger and sort out a few Suikoden albums I'm confused about, but I'm not going to be running my entire library through until I hear about AS accepting MB tags.. Thanks for your help everybody. ^^
