[REQ] track redirection

I have a library of about 95k songs and probably half of them are in compilation albums which creates a whole lot of duplicates. I would love to be able to assign one track to multiple albums so i could cull my hard drive. There used to be an add on for MM4 (track redirection) but i could never get ...

Re: Extended Tags, Encoder, Comments

I always got into the habit of running any aquired new music through MP3tag to delete any extended tags before it was transferred into MM.

Re: BUGS... Non-Lyric Tags changed when Auto-Updating Lyrics...

When i use MM5 to autotag it often fails to respect my choices of which fields to tag. I just use it for Artist, title and Genre and it often wants to tag other fields. The most frustrating thing is it might update the album name for just a couple of files which leaves me with incomplete albums if i...

Re: Restoring Files that I accidently deleted

From my understanding if you rescan the files back into MM you wont get duplicates as you had already removed them from the library and if you had auto update tags enabled the info will be saved in the tags, i think what you will you will lose is the playcount and the last played history for the rem...

Re: Editing Skins

This will add a red separator between the column filter columns: [data-control-class=TracklistFilter] .splitter { border-left-color: red; border-left-style: solid; } Note that this will change the whole separator. If you want to give the header a different color you might need to drill into the ind...

Just retried and the progress bar hasn’t moved after 8 minutes so I cancelled it. That was on a new album with the artist/ album artists fields cleared.

Re: Auto tag issues

I'm not sure if this is trouble with getting to the server or if missing Artist has anything to do with it. 1) Removed Artist/Album Artist 2) Ran Auto-Tag, seemed to stay on Track 1, nothing seemed to proceed 3) Added Artist/Album Artist 4) Auto-Tag seemed to quickly find matches 5) Removed Artist/...
