ok, stupid question... nothing says, or lookslike, a log
lol
blizzow
What's the log say?
jinxie
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...
blizzow
can you make any of the offending files available?
jinxie
and looking at the last files froma few crashes, they are ones i have gotten good tags for on subsequent tries
how so?
blizzow
so it can be tried on another computer, say put it up on a website or e-mail it?
jinxie
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?
blizzow
doubtful, it would be best to see one that isn't currently working.
jinxie
yeah, thats what i though.. i can eventually get them all to work... just takes several ries
tries
blizzow
In my log it says file blah blah blah saved to: bla bla bla, and repeats yes.
jinxie
ok.. wierd... LOL.. just wanted to be sure it was supposed to be that way...
blizzow
Are the files on your local hard drive and not some network share?
jinxie
yup, all local
blizzow
jinxie: you're jinxed.
jinxie
gee, thanks *wry grin*
well.. like i said, someone else has this prob too, so not just ME!
blizzow
can you make one or some of the offending files available?
jinxie
and it's not like it is annoying enough to keep me from using MB
blizzow
It should be.
jinxie
heck no! i'd be hand TAGing them otherwise...
too much typing
blizzow
Do your files have special characters in the names?
jinxie
nope...
blizzow
have you tried uninstalling the tagger and going back to 10.3?
jinxie
no... had same prob running 10.3
blizzow
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
blizzow
strange indeed, I wish ruaok were here.
jinxie
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?
blizzow
It's ABC's Wide World of sports.
jinxie
it IS?? thought it was CNN?
blizzow
no wait...It's ESPN
Oh wait, I think it's CSPAN.
jinxie
The Thrill of victory.... and the agony of defeat...
and am beingnning to feel like that poor skier right now!
blizzow
Baudelaire, I'd suggest trying www.musicbrainz.org, this channel is dedicated to the tagging and identification of audio files.
jinxie
and it is all YOUR fault, blizzow... i was just fine with this bug till you came along..
blizzow
sorry man.
jinxie
Ummmm....
<--- woman
*grin*
blizzow
Sorry Jinxie, you wouldn't be related to sphinxy would you?
jinxie
or chick... wench... girl... whatever...
nope...
blizzow
cool. sorry 'bout that.
the sausage factor on IRC is pretty high.
jinxie
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?
blizzow
possibly. I would remove the program and then remove the musicbrainz tagger directory in program files if it's still there.
jsimmons has quit
Then I'd do a search for not only mbtagger.exe but any tagger dll files out there. Make sure they're gone too.

hmmm.. bad choice... gonne have LOTS of data entry to do if it doesn't crash... LOL
blizzow
filk?
jinxie
folk music that never was, or might be in the future.. *S* usually based on SF/Fantasy
blizzow
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.
jinxie
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
somniloquy
filk, eh? any bands i might know?
jinxie
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
somniloquy
hm... never heard of any of them :(
any suggestion as to what i should look for to get a taste of it?
jinxie
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
somniloquy
yep
i love fantasy and really like sci-fi
jinxie
fave authors?
somniloquy
Roger Zelazny, Piers Anthony, Simon R. Green...
Tolkien, of course
blizzow
sweet, I'm glad it's working for you now.
jinxie
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*
somniloquy
cool, thanks
blizzow
uh oh. Are you at 10.3 or 10.4?
jinxie
10.3
think a hammer might help?? or baseball bat maybe??
somniloquy
a vorpal sword ;p
jinxie
grin
blizzow
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.
jinxie
logger still saying there error is on 10.2.. and same dll faulted everytime...
blizzow
die dll die!
I'd do a search on your hard drive for that dll and kill it manually.
jinxie
so iff faulty dll was updated in .4 it might help...

blizzow
ntdll.dll is a windows based file.
jinxie
lol... not an expert here, but know enough NOT to delete dlls without being 100% certain tis safe...
blizzow
It's possible yours is corrupt, but I'm not sure how you'd figure that one out.
jinxie
hunt for it on google and see if i can download a good one.. *S*
somniloquy
says it's "NT Layer DLL"
i'm guessing deleting that might be a bad idea
jinxie
lol
somniloquy
assuming you're on an NT based 'doze

same here
i could try sending you my ntdll if you want...
no idea if it'd work though... c_c

did you encode the mp3s yourself jinxie?
somniloquy
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
somniloquy gets the other 5
jinxie
blizzow> ummmm.. of course... i would NEVER download them from WinMX or anything *totally and perfectly innocent look*
somniloquy
blizzow, are you one of the people behind MB and the tagger and stuff, btw?
jinxie
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...
somniloquy
jinxie, aye, will do. hopefully i'll actually find some stuff, and hopefully i'll like it ;)
blizzow
No, but I give money to them and have been using it for a while now.
somniloquy
ah
any idea if there's going to be support for other formats, or plugins for other players?
jinxie
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
blizzow
no the popup never goes away.
Although there's a request for chocolate that comes up sometimes.
somniloquy
well i like some folk. some i don't. depends
jinxie
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
