In my home computer I have 5,000+ .ape files. For archival reasons I decided on ape. But as you guess total HD space is over 140 GB. So for work computer and mobile units I converted those ape files to 128 Kb wma files. It was not as easy as I thought because it took at least 5 overnights in five different steps. At the end I have a copy of my library in wma. But now I see that much of my tags are empty. The files that were converted first day are ok, but the other 4000+ files just have Song Name, Artist, Album and Genre, the other tags are empty.
I tried to re-tag some of them and deleted the newly tagged files because of easy organisation. But when I reimport those re-tagged files I just see that the tags are empty again.
My operating system is Win 2000 Professional and I use MC 9.101 version.

because of the windows format
converting to mp3 would have keep the tags

If i am not mistaken did't matt say he needed to work on the APE Dll's

and that may include Tagging

You may be right about of the problems of ape and wma formats but in my case I have 1000+ files which they have converted with right tagging information and the rest 4000+ files don't.
Isn't it strange?
