I had earlier imported audio from an external firewire drive which holds my music. The albums had previously been organized and tagged by iTunes on a mac. Since the metadata had been thoroughly applied everything seemed to import without error (once some filenames had their length reduced) and all seemed well. All files are in ALAC format. I had skipped audio analysis on importing to make sure any tagging issues were initially addressed.
Today I started to analyze the audio and did so by restarting auto-import with audio analysis checked. It seems to be working through the files OK, except it is returning "tagging error" messages with some frequency. I stopped import after 4,000 tracks had been analyzed and there were about 75 tagging error message boxes open that had to be dismissed. I checked those files and they appear to show the audio analysis has completed and volume tags accepted.
So the question is what is likely triggering the tagging errors; and are they a problem I need be concerned with and if so how do I proceed.
And if not a major issue then is there any way to prevent each tagging error from generating a separate window that has to be dismissed. I have over 141,000 tracks to analyze and at the rate it is generating error windows there will be thousands to address if it doesn't crash before its finished.
Thanks for any and all suggestions.
