Randomly disappearing tags (using volume analyzing)

Post by SerialK »

Hi,
i have a pretty well organised mp3 collection, but lately (about since i began using MediaMonkey) it occurs that tags randomly dissapear from files.
Most often some tracks in one Album suddenly miss all information (tilte, artist, allbum, track, year - everything). Sometimes it's also a whole album, with the albums alphabetically before or after it being complete.

I notice that mainly by opening the files in Mp3Tag. MediaMonkey seems to still have the information in it's libary - so there title, album and artist appear complete, though in the example i'm just looking at the genre and the album volume are missing in the two tracks which appear completely empty in Mp3Tag.

Maybe it's got something to do with the volume analyzing fuction of MediaMonkey? This morning i analyzed all the tracks still missing the volumes, so there shouldn't be any still missing it..

I just re-analyzed the volume for that album and now Mp3Tag find's Tags again, but the two tracks are still missing genre and the track number is one digit ("2" i jusually use "02")

Any ideas? I don't like my tags disappearing... :-?

This seems to be a serious problem to me..
Mediamonkey seems to forget some files when batch tagging several.

It shows about one tenth of my mp3s. On most files the Year is unsynchronized, for some it's the whole tag (album, artist, title), some only album, genre and year..
Some also have no yellow fields in the ones shown.. Must be some exotic tag fields on those.

The ones with only the year marked, if i open them in mp3tag they appear ok. Year is in place. Maybe it's because i use the

[MP3Tagging]
DisableFrames=TDAT;TDRC
EnableFrames=TYER

option.

But if i open some with yellow album, or artist or title, those parts are actually missing.
