Notes and Lyrics not saving
« on: May 14, 2002, 05:40:39 pm »

Jim asked me to start a new thread on this problem.

For the past 3 builds, I'm unable to save notes and lyrics.  This is true for every file that I've attempted to add lyrics or notes.  I can save images, comments, custom fields, etc on these files. However, when I reopen properties, notes/lyric fields are empty.  Changes made to notes/lyrics created prior to build .271 also cannot be saved.  

Is this a bug or is it a problem with my system?

Hey Shelly,

What type of files are you using? (mp3, ogg, ape, etc.)

If you're using mp3, what are your settings in Settings -> Plugin Manager -> Input -> MP3 -> Configure set to?

Thanks.

hey, guess what Matt, I can't save lyrics, notes or cover art to any of my 2000 or so mp3s. I didn't notice this before because I don't usually add any of this info. But I just gave it a shot because I wanted to test out some of the nifty new track info pages, and the info won't save at all. Same input settings as Shelly. "Store image file inside . . ." is checked. It won't save from "get," "add," or cut/paste, either individually or in groups. I'm going to try it with ape next. I did try saving lyrics/album covers to a few ape files a couple of weeks ago for the same reason, and it worked fine.

same here, no lyrics, no notes, no internal images.
these just can't be changed. I think .270 worked for internal images, didn't test for notes/lyrics.
Other tags can be changed on the same .mp3s

Tag Analysis disabled

This will make it look like you can't save the info since MJ will ignore the ID3v2 tag during analysis. (which contains lyrics, notes, etc.)

Anybody that's having these problems, double check that your settings look like this:

Settings -> Plugin Manager -> Input -> MP3 -> Configure

ID3v1 mode set to 'save (create if necessary)'
ID3v2 mode set to 'save (create if necessary)'
ID3v2 tag analysis enabled

Thanks.

Hi Matt,

I double checked it with an external tagger. The tags (lyrics, notes, image) aren't changed.

The setting's descrition is 'Ignore IDv2 tags during analysis'. So disabling this option should _en_able analysis.

The other settings are just as you describe them. Saving external images and album, name, track#, ... works. Double checked with www.id3-tagit.de .

Matt

my settings are the default settings:

ID3v1 Mode: Save (Create if necessary)
ID3v2 Mode: Save (Create if necessary)
Tag Analysis: enabled (No check mark in the box to ignore ID3v2 tags during analysis)

when I add lyrics/note/cover art, none of it shows up on the track info page, and it doesn't appear in the file's property box after close/reopen. However, if I add lyrics/notes/cover art via another programm (e.g. Tag&Rename), they stick and appear on the track info pages. I don't know how long this has been a problem with mp3, as last night was the first time that I've ever tried it. However, ape worked fine doing this two weeks ago.

OK, it'll be fixed next build.

If only ID3v2 changes were made, the plugin wasn't saving the changes.

Thanks for your patiences everyone.

Hi Matt,

>Tag Analysis disabled
This will make it look like you can't save the info since MJ will ignore the ID3v2 tag during analysis. (which contains lyrics, notes, etc.)<

I should have said that I didn't have the box checked.

>Settings -> Plugin Manager -> Input -> MP3 -> Configure

ID3v1 mode set to 'save (create if necessary)'
ID3v2 mode set to 'save (create if necessary)'
ID3v2 tag analysis enabled<

That's how mine is configured.  I wasn't able to save images in the last couple of builds, but I am able to save them in this build.  It's all the fields marked with an '*' that I can't save.  

I'm happy to know it's not just me, not that I'm happy the rest of you who responded are having problems.  Many thanks for your assistance and responsiveness to the issue, Matt and Jim.
