1. MP3 ID3v1 tag updating still fails!! Every file I try to edit fails...Dr.Tag v1.92 works fine...went back to MJ beta 234 and it works fine (for updating tags). See:
Update:
FIXED!! MJ had turned off my 'Update tags when file info changes' option when the 'Clear "Recently Imported" playlist on exit' feature was implemented in 236. Imagine it was the tied to the bugs reported against this new checkbox in 236 as I disabled it immediately in 236. I think it is alright now, but 236 cleared my 'Update tags...' option (not very nice...hahaha).
2. When you press Ok to the dialog above, the input focus is lost and you have to grab the mouse and click somewhere in MJ to get it back...argh!!

I too am having some problems with re-tagging
of MP3 files. Perhaps just bumped into it, but
this problem existed all along.
I'm getting a message that ID3 tags have not
been updated, because of one of 3 conditions,
but none are true. There is another one
that makes re-tagging a problem.

Post by: Durgame on March 28, 2002, 02:37:23 pm
Sorry about the ID3 tag post. It must have unchecked itself
during an update. It worked in the prev beta.
As a cleanup suggestion - perhaps a hint might be added
on error messages such as that one, on where to look.
I went to the Encoding settings where tags are selected.

1. Can we get a Play button Behavior setting for "Play selected visible files" and maybe change "Play visible files" to "Play all visible files"? This would give the Play button 3 Behaviors. Or, change the list to "Play Visible Files (All)", "Play Visible Files (Selected)" and "Play Playing Now". Of course, if Selected is enabled and nothing is selected currently, then All should be assumed. I really feel a 'Play selected files' option is needed here.
Update: 03/31/2002 10:55PM
This would be similiar to selecting tracks, right-clicking and choosing Play. I just want the Play button behavior to act like this when playback is currently stopped (of course).

The disk had 2.5MB left on it. I did get the computer to read the files on it though. I restarted, closed session with Easy CD Creator, and it then read the disk. It would not read the disk until I closed the session though. Do I need to give it more room to finalize the session?

My guess is that the bug is related to the file name exceeding the Windows length limit (128 characters?) One of them is "Janos Starker - Six Suites Sonatas In G & D. Johann Sebastian Bach. Disc 2 - 14 - Sonata in D Major, BWV 1027. Allegro Ma Non Tanto.wma" Well over 128 characters. I tried ripping the file with Media Player and manually constructing the file name, but the name got truncated by Windows. The encoder is probably getting an error creating the file or maybe the encoder is getting confused by the truncation.
Post by: ZRocker on March 30, 2002, 02:48:19 pm
You can rip from either drive...that settings screen is for setting up the configuration for both drive. You select which drive to rip from (MJ doesn't) via the Device CD-Rom you have selected when you click Copy (Rip).

Custom Menus (including tray icon) goes Off-Screen. Using "Primary" specs instead of Secondary. Other menus/apps don't do this.
Slider Bar isn't updated when changing via the right-click menu.
Left clicking the slider bar when Auto-Hide is ON, menus disappear when the mouse moves off the display area.
MJ still crashes when starting to play a track from media library, then switching to playing now (no display), move slider down...MJ hesitates, crashes. This is leaving MJ open for awhile. Restart works fine.
When switching to window mode, the display area should show just playlist only and not an empty box and back to where it was when closing.
Switching to "Full Screen" goes to only the primary monitor. No choice to use other monitors.
When going to Full Screen, it doesn't account for "Desktop Space" and therefore the bottom bar is missing. I use Winbar, resizes the Desktop. Winbar shows in Full screen mode.
Desktop Area is resized in Full Screen, Windows are moving all over the place.
When coming back from Full Screen, MJ isn't maximize (where it was). It's stretched out again but using the "non-maximized" bitmaps. Have to restore & maximize to get it back to normal.
-----
Window Mode should be an option on the file menu like the other two.
Maximizing "Window Mode" should maximize to desktop area, not full screen. Having windows non-maximized but streched out isn't using the same bitmaps in XP. In my case, it uses transparency.
Option to show the "Display" all the time instead of just in "Playing Now" would be nice. I'll get into it more later.

I Just Noticed When Using Rename By Field, And Also Using The Move Option
MJ Will Not Rename The File If It Has Some Chars In It Like '?' '"' (i was also using the path rename-move option)
The Illegal chars should be filtered out
I think it may not be cleaning the text to create the path to move the file in.
This also might also be the problem some people are talking about having when using the rename function
I will do some more testing today
Post by: ZRocker on March 31, 2002, 03:28:56 am
1. The new GetScreenWidth and GetScreenHeight functions do not exclude the size of the Windows Taskbar. So, you can't use the functions for positioning your skin (if that's what they are for).
2. When you have the Equalizer turned OFF and you drag an EQ Band or Preamp slider, either the OnEqualizerChanged event is not firing or the MJMixerAutomation object's EQOn property is not set properly (when checked in the OnEqualizerChanged event call). In this case the EQ is turned back ON, but the skin's Power On button does not know the EQ has been turned back on (automatically).

same thing you have but it goes ahead and does what you what (for me) I don't know why. It does it even if you select a song from a playlist click play then Analyzing Devices It plays the song no problem this is only the first time you use anything on the right click menu after you use it once it doesn't come up again. It has been in the last three build's that I have noticed this. It seems like MJ thinks you want to burn the song and it is looking for the burner.

1. If your skin name in the main.xml file does not match the installed directory name (under MiniSkins), the Skin Manager's Delete function does not work. Skin Manager makes you think the skin was deleted by removing it from the displayed list, but it actually didn't delete it off disk. Exit the Skin Manager and bring the Skin Manager back up and the deleted skin is back. Looking in the MiniSkins directory, you can see that the Skin Manager actually did nothing.
Post by: Charlemagne 8 on March 31, 2002, 02:48:27 pm
Also, there's no option to "Configure" ANY of the encoder plug-ins through the "Plug-Ins" options button. If you attempt a rip, you can go to "Options" from there and it works fine.
I deeply miss DSP and Analyze Replay Gain. I know they'll be back but I still miss them.

Update: 04/01/2002 10:40AM
Based on Doof's comment, I tried this with another skin (Rotar) and MJ did not crash. So, with my LowerRight skin, MJ will crash (through no fault of mine). So, Nikolay...please try it with the LowerRight skin.
Update: 04/01/2002 10:43AM
Well, it doesn't crash with LowerRight again...must a hard-to-replicate type bug...my prior playlist was only 11 tracks and may have been for tracks not imported into MJ (not sure).

I was ripping some CD's with MJ 8.0.237. While ripping was in progress, I renamed some of the CDs that had just been ripped in the CD-DVD list. I did this by right click and rename. Everything looked OK until the rip was finished. When I went to look at the CD list, all were named the same! but with (xx) to distinguish it from the others.
Oh well, I can go back and rename them since it is only a dozen at this time. But I hope this gets resolved before I complete my collection.
This is easily reproducible.

module KERNEL32.DLL at 0167:bff7b9a6.
Got this one changing between mega-me and zrockers lower-right mini skin. Also had playbackeng.dll at the same time but could not copy it. Note- I was moving some of Doof's altered track files around while MJ was open but not playing. This occured just after the file move and playback was restarted.
