No, I don't think so. I bet you will find that something is wrong with it.

Are the DSP functions beefed up? I had to go down to half volume to stop my speakers from buzzing. Thrumming is more like it. It's good, though. Gives us more range of operation.

Bug.
If "Clear Recently Imported Playlist on Exit" is enabled and there are no recently imported items, clicking on the "Recently Imported" icon shows ALL of the songs in ALL playlists.

The Filename rule is still messed up when ripping CD's.  MJ uses the Album Artist as the Artist name when creating files.  My file names still start with "Various Artist" when ripping soundtrack albums.
Various Artist should be used only with the Directory Rule.

If I re-install the latest build and restore my license, would my "restore times" become fewer? That means I just have 5 times left?

MJ staff please tell me

Lucy-
You don't need to restore your license just for doing a re-install of MJ. You only need to restore if you wipe out (format) your disk.

Thanks Nikolay,
Would be nice to have both Album Artist and Artist as an option in the pull down menu for both Directory rule and Filename rule.

Does anybody have problems with renaming files from properties?

MJ returns an error message saying something like "the file(s) are in use, read-only or tagging has been disabled".

Tell me if I’m wrong but "tagging" is this option, right?:
Options -> General -> Importing & Tagging -> Update tags when file info changes

And if it is - I tried both on and off - doesn’t work.
Also I checked that the files are not read-only - and I had no problems moving them manually.

I tried going back to an older version (8.0.302) didn’t help me.

Last weekend I made a new installation (meaning new not updating or reinstalling) of winXP and I’ve had the problem since that.

Does anybody now of this problem or is it only me?

I went back to trying and I can ad this – There is no problem renaming the file, its only when I try to move the files into directories I get the error?

Tinitus,

What's your Tag Saving settings under Plug-In Manager > Input > MP3 Plugin & Configure button?

Also, Nikolay...on that same dialog, why does the caption bar say "MP3 Remove Tag Mode"?  Doesn't seem too 'right'.

Hi ZR
under "Tag Saving" both is set to: "Save (create if nessecary)"
"Tag Analysis": "Ignore ID3v2 tags during analysis" is unchecked?

*What does the "Z" in rocker stand for?*

>> Does anybody have problems with renaming files from properties?
it is not perfict.

and the semi fix to not allow duplicate file name \ renaming prior to release i kind of thought was wrong.

where MJ tells you that two files exist with the same properties, this is something i have been saying for along time what happened to (1).Mp3 (2).Mp3 etc...

don't stop me from renaming just because it is a dup, many good \ great songs have many versions of the same song from the same artist.

how ever make sure your not playing a file and try to rename, or rename and move the file.

this is still one problem in MJ (I think) That Has Been There Since Version 7.

Hi King

can you explain step by step what your doing, since the above what you said on your first message is not how you rename.

maybe your doing something that has not been cought yet.

1. mark file
2. go to properties
3. etc...

What I'm (trying to I might ad) doing is to "batch" rename files.
I'm pretty sure what I’m doing is the right way since I’ve done it many times before.

I right-click a file and choose properties. In the properties dialog I select “Tools” and choose “Rename files from properties”.

Then I get the dialog “Rename files using files properties”.

Now, the funny thing is that if I leave the directories box unchecked and only use file-renaming everything works just dandy – but then when I try to move the file(s) also all I get is complaining and error dialogs.

What I meant to say was

Directory Rule and Base path: ARTIST\ALBUM

Filename Rule: ARTIST - NAME

Directory Rule and Base path are different boxes. Are you leaving Base Path empty? if Yes then that's the problem.

Base path should be something like "c:\music"
