Title: Cannot change filename and tag at the same time
Post by: phelt on April 17, 2003, 06:48:06 pm

If I use the file info box to modify any tag data (artist, title, whatever) and then modify the filename, I get an error popup . "Failed to modify the following files - X:\dirname\filename.mp3"

(Note that's an example, not the actual path shown  ;)

But even though it says it could not update the file, that does not keep it from updating the DB, so it references a non-existent file with incorrect tag data.

I used to be able to do this, in MJ 8, with no problem.

Phelt...yeah, I missed this. Same problem to a tee. So I'm not alone on this. My sanity is back.

Just to keep this up-to-date, xen and I can reproduce this consistently in MC 9.0.162.

If you're reading this thread, please take a second to confirm/deny this problem and make a quick post here.

You can just make a 1 character change to any tag and filename without hitting Apply Changes in between. In order to change back to the proper name and tag, just delete the extra character you added, from both the tag and the filename.
Many thanks!
