Title: kingsparta: convert issue
Post by: KingSparta on August 26, 2006, 08:50:58 am
I am scratching my head wondering why this is not fixed.

Play Media File:

2006-08-25-R&F-CF64k.mp3

Select File:

2006-08-25-R&F-CF64k.mp3

Convert Format To Reduce Kbps: MP3Encoder

Settings: Delete Original

MC Creates:

2006-08-25-R&F-CF64k (temp).wav

MC Creates:

2006-08-25-R&F-CF64k (1).mp3

Now There Are Two Files

2006-08-25-R&F-CF64k.mp3
2006-08-25-R&F-CF64k (1).mp3

Since MC12 Played It, it becomes locked, and Is Not Deleted As It Should be.

should not MC12 unlock it's own files instead of creating problems like this, and littering the drive with debris.

I'm not seeing this.  I converted a file with it playing.  Seemed to work.

Does this always happen?  Can you explain exactly what you're doing?

Edit: Nevermind, I figured out how to recreate.

Next build.  It will stop the file from playing.

I don't think that's the only place there is an issue

If i remember correctly if you send a file to playing now, it plays, then if you load it in the media editor you have an issue.

But i will re-test after the new build is out.

This all started after the stop button was removed, and about 2-3 places this creates a problem.

I am glad\happy\grateful you looked into this, it creates i large problem for me every time I use MC to convert a file to a lower bit rate.

Yes that looks fixed, but here is another

If you play a file

then make a correction on a field (like artist)

MC does not save the data

when you stop the file from playing

mc still does not save the data

only when you play another media file will MC save the changed data field.
