WavPack / Two-Sided CUE
« on: September 22, 2014, 02:31:46 pm »

Hello guys,

could someone kindly clarify whether the two issues with MC have been fixed? I'm using MC 20.0.17.

1. WavePack files (.wv) plays fine but displays as a single file in Media Center, cover art is limited to one file despite the disc image contains tens of them. Is this inability to play embedded cue sheet?

2. Double-sided CUEs are not recognized in MC. An example file extract is below. When imported into MC, such file produces only two tracks: the first track from side 1 and the first track from side 2. If I split it into two different CUEs, it works fine and all of the tracks are recognized.

PERFORMER "Performer"
TITLE "Performer's Album"
FILE "Side 1.ape" WAVE
  TRACK 01 AUDIO
    TITLE "Track 1"
    INDEX 01 00:00:00
... (several tracks)
FILE "Side 2.ape" WAVE
  TRACK 19 AUDIO
    TITLE "Track 19"
    INDEX 01 00:00:00

I could be wrong, but I think that embedded cue sheets are only supported for FLAC files.

I expect the second problem (multiple tracks in multiple files) is something which was not anticipated by the CUE file support.

Thanks for the reply. What options do I have? Cut everything into FLACs? Split the CUE sheet into two?

Splitting the cue into two cue files worked for me.. just had to cut and paste the FILE line and everything below for the 2nd vinyl into a second .cue file

Looking at our code we seem to handle multiple link filenames.

The problem isn't limited to WavPack files, I have an .APE files and problem is similar. Foobar 2000 handles such situation properly

I think this will all be sorted next build.

The history:
Fixed: CUE file parsing updated to better handle link filenames.

We're actually wondering how it worked at all because every track had the same filename and that would cause it to recycle the entries instead of making a new one.

It's a mystery...

Also, just to add, you should reimport your CUE files once the build is available.

 issue number two was resolved, is number one, recognizing embedded cue sheets in wavpack files, doable in Media Center ?
