issues while tagging [#21344]

Post by Rob_S »

I am pleased to find that MM autotag finds a lot of my old untagged or mis-tagged tracks and helps me fix them up. I have been experiencing just a few minor issues working with latest beta 3070, on windows 11 laptop, all files local SSD drive.

I am working with list by album view with my entire 14k tracks displayed, and sorted in album order.

When I was working near the bottom of the list, after a set of tags was applied, the view would scoot up a few screen heights and show different tracks than the ones I had selected. Pagedown a few time brings me back.

Sometimes after doing a few tagging operations, the main window no longer displays any tracks below where I was working, and I need to F5 refresh to bring them back. I have performed database management, and these above still happen.

Some other times, when I select a set of say 15 tracks to autotag, it will say processing track 1/16 and get stuck there for a while, sometimes until I give up and cancel.

Another issue I have is when I have several tracks say 10 or more which should be from the same album, but they display separately due to lack of consisten album artist. I select them all, correct the album artist entry, and click OK. This often does not apply to all of the selected tracks.

I will probably be asked to do this all over again with the debug version, and submit a log, :-?

Hi Rob,

We're working on a number of auto-tagging issues for the next build so don't bother with debug logs--most issues should be fixed.

BUT, re. the tracklist changing position subsequent to editing, I haven't seen this. Can you provide a bit more info? e.g.
- Does it occur consistently?
- Which node & view?
- Is playback involved?

Thanks!

- Does it occur consistently:

Yesterday - yes it did, Today - I cant reproduce

- Which node & view?

I was in all files of the Entire Library node

- Is playback involved?

Yes, it was, I might have been playing a track further up the page from a previous set of tags. I tried that again today, and it did not reposition.

One other very odd issue that arises periodically is that the right-click dialog remains on screen and overlaps the autotag dialog.

It refuses to go away, no matter where I click, and I need to slide the auto-tag box siedways out from under the right-click menu.

Hi,
These are the timing issues that are very hard to replicate and easy to fix :(

If you find teh way to trigger it three+ times in a raw we would be glad to have steps to replicate even it is timing issue.

Easy to reproduce on my setup. Work in entire library, all files using list by album view.

Just keep autotagging a few (like 1-5) files at a time, until it happens. Maybe perform a few image lookups in between. Then after that it happens more frequently, but not always.

Thanks! I can replicate a variant of the context menu problem. Tracked at:
