        Ahoy

        • 2003-09-01 24443, 2003

      • synack
        anyone encouter issues w/ mb not tagging a file? I've run into an issue at least 1 out of 3 albums I tag, where all but 2 or 3 of the files get tagged.

        • 2003-09-01 24441, 2003

      • synack
        to get the missed files to be tagged, I enter misc data in the album field and have mb overwrite the bogus tag i entered

        • 2003-09-01 24407, 2003

      • dvtoo
        nod, known probably I think

        • 2003-09-01 24432, 2003

      • synack
        lets hope

        • 2003-09-01 24455, 2003

      • synack
        whats odd is, even blanking out a files tag doesnt mean mb will tag it, it takes some type of entry into one of the fields

        • 2003-09-01 24423, 2003

      • synack
        and its chronic to a particular mp3, trying to have mb tag it 3, or 4 times does no good

        • 2003-09-01 24454, 2003

      • dvtoo
        next version of the client uses a totally new taging library, so hopefully it'll just go away

        • 2003-09-01 24452, 2003

      • synack
        does 10.0test3 use that lib?

        • 2003-09-01 24455, 2003

      • dvtoo
        yes

        • 2003-09-01 24403, 2003

      • dvtoo
        it seems to have, uh, a few bugs though =)

        • 2003-09-01 24402, 2003

      • synack
        yeah, and i think that tag skipping one still exists

        • 2003-09-01 24426, 2003

      • synack
        i tried i last night, and i'm 85% certain i still had the issue. I had to stop using it when it didnt rename my files :)

        • 2003-09-01 24403, 2003

      • dvtoo
        yeah, I've had no luck tracking that one down. tagger is such a total pain in the ass to debug

        • 2003-09-01 24410, 2003

      • synack
        but i can't really complain. the program is freaking great

        • 2003-09-01 24430, 2003

      • synack
        how's come?

        • 2003-09-01 24439, 2003

      • synack
        (hard to debug, that is)

        • 2003-09-01 24400, 2003

      • dvtoo
        because tagger is written in borland c++ builder 5, and everything else is compiled in msvc, and they don't seem to understand each other's debug info

        • 2003-09-01 24450, 2003

      • synack
        borland c++? sweet mother

        • 2003-09-01 24456, 2003

      • synack
        ugh

        • 2003-09-01 24416, 2003

      • synack
        are there plans to rewrite tagger?

        • 2003-09-01 24428, 2003

      • dvtoo
        yes

        • 2003-09-01 24431, 2003

      • dvtoo
        later in the fall

        • 2003-09-01 24437, 2003

      • synack
        sweet

        • 2003-09-01 24417, 2003

      • synack
        while im listing off issues :)

        • 2003-09-01 24441, 2003

      • synack
        when using mb to tag filles on a mapped network drive, it looooooves to crash

        • 2003-09-01 24458, 2003

      • dvtoo
        oh, huh, maybe that's why ruoak can't reproduce it

        • 2003-09-01 24402, 2003

      • dvtoo
        but yeah, that's definitely true

        • 2003-09-01 24428, 2003

      • dvtoo
        I do all my tagging that way, I never thought about that as a factor

        • 2003-09-01 24438, 2003

      • dvtoo
        you've tested it both ways?

        • 2003-09-01 24444, 2003

      • synack
        yeah, running tagger locally on the machine w/ the mp3s no crash

        • 2003-09-01 24455, 2003

      • synack
        running tagger on a diff machine and tagging to a mapped drive...crash

        • 2003-09-01 24405, 2003

      • synack
        its maybe once in every ..5 or 6 albums

        • 2003-09-01 24445, 2003

      • synack
        the source and dest for the tag/rename is the same mapped drive

        • 2003-09-01 24459, 2003

      • synack
        If that makes sense

        • 2003-09-01 24452, 2003

      • dvtoo
        yeah, I've definitely seen the bug before, I know exactly whaty you mean

        • 2003-09-01 24402, 2003

      • synack
        Heh, when I was just getting started w/ this project to id3 tag all my mp3s, and trying out .10.0test3, I saw the alternate dir structure for "VA" titles and though, interesting. Now that i've done a few VA's w/ .90, i want that feature :(

        • 2003-09-01 24424, 2003

      • dvtoo
        yeah, it's really nice

        • 2003-09-01 24433, 2003

      • dvtoo
        I really want config profiles also

        I finished what I was doing

      • wickedme
        I didn't get those questions answered though

        • 2003-09-01 24441, 2003

      • wickedme
        the colours, and how to correct something that's completely wrong

        • 2003-09-01 24448, 2003

      • djce
        ok... so the colours... you mean the various shades of pink?

        • 2003-09-01 24456, 2003

      • wickedme
        yup

        • 2003-09-01 24413, 2003

      • djce
        basically it's the percentage match. white = 100% match = good

        • 2003-09-01 24422, 2003

      • wickedme
        ahh, right.

        • 2003-09-01 24430, 2003

      • djce
        deep pink = 0% match = bad, it's probably got it wrong and you should check. etc.

        • 2003-09-01 24442, 2003

      • wickedme
        and how about correcting both wrong artist and album?

        • 2003-09-01 24402, 2003

      • djce
        If the song is in the "identified" list, click "misidentified" (IIRC)

        • 2003-09-01 24412, 2003

      • wickedme
        right

        • 2003-09-01 24415, 2003

      • djce
        (I'm doing this from memory... I think this is how it works)...

        • 2003-09-01 24420, 2003

      • djce
        then click "lookup".

        • 2003-09-01 24422, 2003

      • wickedme
        but then that goes to unidentified

        • 2003-09-01 24437, 2003

      • wickedme
        same result though, surely?

        • 2003-09-01 24442, 2003

      • djce
        It shows some matches... if none of them are correct, click "search anyway".. Something like that.

        • 2003-09-01 24451, 2003

      • wickedme
        okay

        • 2003-09-01 24414, 2003

      • wickedme
        so, if I rescan, does mb know which songs I've already fixed?

        • 2003-09-01 24428, 2003

      • wickedme
        or do I have to do anything again to find and fix the unidentified songs I left?

        • 2003-09-01 24450, 2003

      • djce
        It depends if you saved the matches, I think.

        • 2003-09-01 24401, 2003

      • wickedme
        oh, didn't.

        • 2003-09-01 24406, 2003

      • wickedme
        no need then.
