143 would not update tags for me yesterday. Files were not read only. Files were ripped and created with MC.

The method I used:

Rip as uncompressed wave. (Did several cds.) Went to Media Library > used Keyword > File Type > Wave.

Convert to mp3 VBR with alt preset fast extreme as command line setting. Converted files.

Upon completion, files were listed as just track# - name. EG: 02 - blahblah. No artist or album info was included in the conversion. Some also had duration lengths that exceded 40 minutes, for a 3-5 minute song.

Tags are set to auto update in options.

Can someone try this and see if it was just me. I would like to think it might have just been a bad install on my part.

JimH-

Still getting duration and bitrate error with one disc I have:

1 Jimi Hendrix - The Ultimate Experience - All Along The Watchtower 4:01 196 1 mp3 1993
2 Jimi Hendrix - The Ultimate Experience - Purple Haze 2:42 214 2 mp3 1993
3 Jimi Hendrix - The Ultimate Experience - Hey Joe 23:10 32 3 mp3 1993

1 & 2 are fine. 3 has wrong bitrate and length shown (bold). This is just one example, there several from the above cd that are wrong. Using 143 again to test.

I think I'll try EAC and see if it does multiple reads on this particular cd. Maybe it is a bad disc. More later.

EAC does not produce these errors. Bitrate and length come out correctly. Don't know what to say... :-/

Same encoder, same settings?

Are you ripping in secure mode in MC?

[MachineHead]

Should be the same encoder. Lame 3.92. Settings are the same, aps fast extreme.

No I'm not using digital secure with MC. Large Buffer.

Gonna try a clean install tomorrow. Getting late to be playing with this now.
