I've just drag and drop to the end (of the line) the playback cursor. Watch the result :

When you select a TV channel that channel and all of the channels are loaded into Now Playing. For example if I select channel 22 the display says: Channel 22 / live ? --- 39 of 97. Weird?

I'm attempting to add and edit image tags in .151. Using the action window with one or many files selected.....when I click on a tag field in the action window (eg "places"), a window comes up with a list of existing tags and a "add new tag button". Clicking the "add tag" button just closes the window and returns me to the former tagging window. Yesterday (using .149) I was tagging using the same method and a dialog box would come up allowing me to enter a new tag. Seems like a bug to me.

[MusicHawk]

I requested better keyboard functionality in the tag editor, and you've improved it. Thank you!

However, there might be a small new bug. When I go to the Keywords field, a scrollable list opens with all existing values. I can now scroll this list via keyboard arrows, a big improvement.

But, this broke the vertical scrollbar. If I click anywhere on the Keywords field's vertical scrollbar, instead of letting me scroll, the field list immediately closes. This happens if I touch the scrollbar's slider or up/down arrows.

This is the same problem I'm having....and clicking on "add new tag" also closes the window.

Could you send the MP3 file to matt at jriver dot com?  It'd help us reproduce this.

Thanks for the help.

[stevenf]

when you move cursor over the playlists in TAG window, the word "Playlists" is still shown.

Example:

Playlists: Country
Heavy Metal
Hip Hop
Popular

and so on. Are there any plans to remove the Word "Playlists" in future builds?

I assumed that this applyed to it:
Changed: Tag > Playlists window no longer shows the root tree item "Playlists".

Thanks

iPod Sync is syncing images that have the same [Album] and [Name] every time the device is sync'd, even tho no changes have been made to the files.

[NickM]

The 'ALL' selection in Theatre View has re-appeared for Video.

[stevenf]

In Tag, when you attempt to tag Keywords, it closes when you attempt to scroll down, the field closes.

[dcwebman]

In the tag window, the Replay Gain label says (click to edit) but when you do, all it does is display the one value in a drop down box. No editing is possible. It should be a text box instead.  The same is true if you add Replay Gain to the customized view. So from what I can see, there is no way to edit this value.

[lalittle]

The 'ALL' selection in Theatre View has re-appeared for Video.

The "All" selection was recently brought back.  The consensus seemed to be that it's absence caused more of a problem to the people who used it than it's presence caused to the people who did not.

There have been requests to make the "All" selection an option, so this is still a possibility as well, although JR wants to be careful to not end up with "options overload."

It's a "clear only" value.  You'll get the current value and an empty string as drop choices.

For clarity, all the tooltips have a label.

This applies to once you click on Playlists to "zoom in" in the Tag window.

I have one song that analyzes at 0.00 for the Replay Gain. I use a smartlist that displays any songs that have Replay Gain, Peak Level, BPM, or Intensity at 0 which should mean it needs analyzing. Yeah, not really needed anymore since MC now accurately skips over files but for this one song I would like to change the Replay Gain to something like 0.01.

We can edit BPM and Intensity. There's no way to modify Replay Gain or Peak Level then?

That smartlist works much better if AND is used instead of OR.

I know it's been reported before...

IPOD SYNCH isn't working.

I cannot synch my ipod without MC locking up.  I cannot find the full pattern but these are my observations.

1.  It happens less with smaller numbers of files to synch.
2.  Conversion does not seem to affect the lockups.
3.  It happens MUCH more with an empty ipod.
4.  I see no effect with the program in focus or minimized.

I almost got my empty ipod80 synched by doing it in < 200 track batches yesterday, I got up to the V's and then MC crashed and locked up.  Once the lockup occurs, the ipod db seems to have lost all the space that was uploaded before MC crashed and the only way to get it back is to initialize the ipod and start over again.

When MC locks up, I must kill it to shut it down.

You can't have duplicate image names in the same album.

I'm running 12.0.147 at home, which is the release offered to the general public and IPOD synching does not work with it for my previously posted comments (above).

Is a version of MC12, that will not synch properly to an ipod really being offered for purchase?

I had tried 12.0.151 and had the ipod issue, so I tried reverting to 147, same ipod problem.

It's not working for a few people, but we can't duplicate the problem.  We're still working on it with people who see it.  Send us a log if you can.

This is the same problem I'm having....and clicking on "add new tag" also closes the window.

Any news on this problem...it's not going away

Thanks, RW
fixed now...thanks!

I was unable to find anything by searching (at least not quickly)

How do I turn on logging?

It's under Help in MC.
