I'm using Media Center 10.0.150 (registered), ripping to Ogg Vorbis. Almost every time I rip an entire album, Media Center registers all the tags in the database.
However, if I examine the files individually with ogginfo, some of the files have all the metadata tags, but random files from the album have no metadata whatsoever---not even the name! Obviously, this causes me some distress when I remove them from the database and try to import them back in: some files come in fine, but the ones with no metadata have only the name of the song (which Media Center guesses from the filename), which sometimes isn't even correct (when characters couldn't be stored in the filename).
I've noticed, though, when I rip a CD that has artwork, Media Center has to re-save all the files with the artwork (which I've specified to be saved inside each file), and thus all the files have their metadata stored correctly---apparently because of the extra step of re-writing the files.
I have two questions:
1. Is there some bug that randomly leaves metadata out of some songs ripped from an album?
2. How can I tell Media Center to go through all my files and make sure the Ogg files have metadata and if not, to store the metadata from the database? (Otherwise, I'll have to remove all the songs from the database, re-import them all, see which ones have no metadata, and then go looking for my original CDs.)
Thanks,
Garret
