Re: Can anyone help me with “Best Practice” for Tag Separators….?

So, I ended up deciding on just ALL Semi-colons with a Space for anything that has multiple entries... I was going to do a forward slash on some of the lesser common tags since that seems to be common, but then I just decided to just keep it simple and things should still mostly work with the semi-c...

Can anyone help me with “Best Practice” for Tag Separators….?

I’m leaning thinking I should use backward Double-Slashes \\ as the separator for ALL Tags, but would all players etc. like that? So, any value that has multiple entries I just use the double-slash. So, Genres would be separated by double-slashes, as well as ALL other Tags, Artist, ISRC #'s, etc. Or...

There is a related fix in the next beta build: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=18414 Related how? Having difficulty understanding exactly what this addresses. 1) Album is tagged when not selected 1 Deselect Album, select only Lyrics, Title, Artist 2 Use Auto-Tag --> Album is changed ...

Re: BUGS... Non-Lyric Tags changed when Auto-Updating Lyrics...

BTW, what do you think about what I said above to Lowlander? I have learnt more about AutoTag thanks to your posts. I had not used it much because I set tags as I want when I rip albums, and any changes I want, I do individually manually. Am not keen a batch process grinding though my tags. The big...

Re: Some Suggestions, BUGS, and Questions...

Hi leeuniverse, a couple of thoughts 1) What is your main music client? ie is it MediaMonkey, or something else? Does this tag duplication show in whatever that tool is? ... or can you only see it in a low level nuts&bolts tool like mp3Tag? If the "damage" is not visible in your music...

Re: BUGS... Non-Lyric Tags changed when Auto-Updating Lyrics...

Also, the bug Barry reported, seems like a "feature" to me, because according to him the "way" he was doing it, MediaMonkey was actually doing exactly what I was wanting and it should have been, ONLY updating the Lyrics Tag, not touching others. Looks like I did not explain the ...

Re: BUGS... Non-Lyric Tags changed when Auto-Updating Lyrics...

1) As indicated previously. Auto-Tag settings affect which tags Auto-Tag looks up. It will only lookup (and change) the selected tags. This is independent from how MediaMonkey writes tags when you make a tag changes. Then it does rewrite all tags with the database value, no matter if you changed 1 ...

1) There is this bug fixed in build 2507: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=100193&hilit=mp3+separator otherwise, MediaMonkey follows the ID3 standards for tagging. So, what are those standards and "how" should things be separated? Again, I used to have a sing...

Re: BUGS... Non-Lyric Tags changed when Auto-Updating Lyrics...

1. The ability to "Select" what Tags are either "updated" and/or "overwritten" in your files when you use Auto-Tag... As being discussed here, that's already the case. If you can reproduce that Auto-Tag retrieves other tags than those selected (besides the bug already ...

Re: BUGS... Non-Lyric Tags changed when Auto-Updating Lyrics...

Thanks for kind words. The other way of looking at that is that it won't "touch" other tags if your tracks are in sync with your MM database. And having your database be in sync with your tracks is a state of goodness, and is a design expectation of MediaMonkey. The easy way to achieve th...

Re: BUGS... Non-Lyric Tags changed when Auto-Updating Lyrics...

Hey Barry... I'm also perfectly fine with MM "auto syncing" with the database, so people don't have to think about their tags. However, the issue is we really NEED the settings for the "exception to the rule", i.e. the cases in which we DON'T want other Tags touched, or in other ...

Four needed FEATURES after considerable testing...

First, I want to say I'm sorry for coming on strong with my recent complaints, but this has been serious for me, and what should be a BASIC feature in my mind as not existing, which ended up causing 100's of files being broke and now having to go through every single one of some 3,500 files to fix a...

Re: Some Suggestions, BUGS, and Questions...

((Also you got that date to year add-on? It's a 4 digit year, which I think isn't exactly what you want but might be less annoying.)) Don't fret guy. Try what I said in your other post. If you gotta manually update tags it takes time, but you feel accomplished afterwards. I come from a bygone Era d...

Re: Some Suggestions, BUGS, and Questions...

The setting controls what is looked up online. So, if you have only Lyrics enabled, only Lyrics will be retrieved online (except the bug as describe above). However when MediaMonkey tags a file, it will save all tags from the database to the file. You can disable tag updates to files (disable Updat...

Re: Some Suggestions, BUGS, and Questions...

1. I'm in the Artist section, there is no "column" to move. So, different issue. 2. In Options... under Library then Metadata lookup.... You select there what Tags you want to be touched when you Right-Click and use Auto-Tag. 3. Yep, did so.... Though, showing "larger" Artwork i...
