HELP: Editing tags?
« on: May 31, 2002, 11:11:26 am »
I often like to correct/edit tags...
I also add 'qqq' to files I really like so that I can find them years after

But when I edit strange things happen!

When the file is playing I click on the field and can edit it on the fly (without opening the media properties and clicking save)

- see that screen shoot

But then strange things happen!
When I edit the name of the artist the files STOPS, saves and continues playing - THE MOST ANNOYING THING!!!
But when I edit 'comment' filed (say put 'qqq' so that I could find it years after) it continues playing! But then sometimes I notice that it fails to save that!!!

It would be very good it any edits one makes would be noted by MJ in temp.dat file and then on unload (or load in case of crash) it would edit all those changes!

For current set up could someone make it clear what are the rules to all the tag edits!!!

I'm on Media Jukebox [v8.0.239] maybe I should go back to 7.2 or another program? because one bug after another...

Thank you all..

Seems like on every problem the answer is to 'upgrade', 'upgrade', 'upgrade' to latest version and it's a loop...
I nor you like loops...

Seems like 7.2 was stable... could you point to list of changes of 8.x over latest 7.2? thanks...

when will v 8 be final not beta?

Or other options do I have?

Please upgrade to 8.0.289 from our downloads page.  It was released last week.

If the problem persists, please let us know.

At the top of this page, go to Home, MJ Home.
On the right, click on "New in 8.0".
You can also download 8.0 from the home page.

Personally, I wouldn't edit a file's tags while the file is playing.  I know that a program should be able to handle that, but since I know many programs do not like it, I just don't do it for now.
