Built-in ID3 Tag Editing (Copy/Move)
surbaniak:
I know this one may not make it to the top of the priority list, but here is the pattern I have noticed on a number of my duplicate resolutions:
SongA is a true duplicate of SongB but =
SongA
Artist:ABC
Title:XYZ
Album:PQR
Rate:64kbit
SongB
Artist:<blank>
Title:<blank>
Album:<blank>
Rate:320kbit
So now I have to open each one a few times in Winamp to Copy-Paste the tag info from the poor quality SongA to the one I want to keep SongB (because of its superior BitRate). Then I erase SongA.
Very time consuming.
Is there any way a Copy/Move ID3 Tag info Left<-->Right action can be added to Similarity [and best to let the user pick the tags to Move].
Thnx.
Seb
Admin:
Thanks for comment.
i think this wish would implementent in future, but not in nearest versions.
Because there some troubles with different mechanism of storing tags (ID3,Vorbis,ASF).
surbaniak:
I noticed one more thing with MP3 tags.
One of the rippers I use, populates ID3v2 very nicely but ID2v1 it sticks garbage strings into (for some stupid reason) ....
and it looks like Similarity is only reading ID2v1, and i get the garbage tag info in Similarity GUI.
Any way around that ?
ex.
ID3v1.Title = þÿ
ID3v2.Title = Good Time (Radio Edit)
Admin:
I see what's wrong
Admin:
i tested, everything seems to be ok.
i edited tags in winamp, id3v1 different from id3v2, Similarity showed correct id3v2 tags, in win2k,winxp.
can you send me this file where this bug appears ?
similarity don't analyse file for id3v2 tags, it uses Windows Media SDK for taking all information, maybe your grabber write invalid tags ?
Or you maybe didn't install Windows Media Player 9.0 or later, in this case Similarity uses ACM decoder and himself searches ID3v1 tags. In this mode it's not support ID3v2.x tags.
