Anyone know how to view tags CD Ripper does not show?

[vta]

Hi, the tag shown when I view Meta Data on the CD Ripper are:

Artist, Album, Album Artist, Genre, Year, Disc, Composer, Compilation, Track Artist, Title.

After I rip and view song with Windows or with Squeezebox I also see such as:

CATALOG 'hash sign'

LABEL (or organization)

STYLE

Where are these hidden? Are they part of the tags or something else? I also can not see them all in Media Monkey.

Thanks for any help.

CD Ripper >> Options >> Metadata & ID Tags

enable the tags you want.

Spoon, thank you for the reply. Still not sure of this.
Under 'CD Ripper >> Options >> Metadata & ID Tags' I find many items including:

Catalog Number, Style, Chorus, Label

However when I am looking at 'dBpowerampCD Ripper: Manual Meta Review' I do not see this information to work with. Also when I open files in Media Monkey I do not see much of this information to work with.

I have the 'dBpoweramp Configuration: Codec Advanced' set as per the guide. I do find some (not all) of this information when I right click on a FLAC file and select 'Properties >> Audio Properties'. To confuse me even more some of this information does show up in iPeng (Squeezebox Controller) when I inspect tags in that program.

I have tried 'Godfather' tag reader also and it does not show all this info. Where is it all hiding? Can I not see it to work with it in dBpoweramp?

Thanks in advance for your help.

No way I can provide as much info as Spoon, and I can't comment on what is and is not shown in the Ripper window, but here's my experience with your issues:

- in the dBpoweramp configuration, also click on the "music converter" tab, and then hit "advanced" next to "enable pop-up information tips", and select as much as you want
- to see all tags, I find Mp3tag is the most helpful. Right click on a file in Mp3tag and hit "extended tags"to see all the tags
- if, in addition to all tag information you also want to see other audio properties, try Foobar. Foobar will also provide information that is embedded in file headers, which Mp3tag does not do at this time

Also keep in mind as you use different tools, they may map a particular ID3 frame (incomprehensible 4 character names) to different a different tag field(the labels that you actually see in dBpoweramp, Mp3tag, Foobar, and other tools). This is an issue for mp3 files, not an issue for FLAC.

good luck!

This info is not available on all discs, if it is then it will show at the bottom of the main page under the 'Meta' tab.

OK, IF I right click on a file in Windows and look at the two tabs:

'Audio Properties' and 'ID-Tags'

I can find much information like:

'LABEL', 'STYLE' , 'PERIOD'. 'INSTRUMENT'...

My question is I guess:

Where is this info when I am ripping a CD, it does not show up in the 'REVIEW METADATA' for me to inspect prior to ripping.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
