Local Cache Does Not Cache All FLAC metadata

[d2b]

dBpoweramp's local cache does not recognize and therefore cache custom tags. Tags such as UPC, Label and so forth are not recalled from cache.

This is troublesome when re-inserting a CD that might have had to be removed for inspection (bad rip on one track, say) or when accidentally pressing the Refresh button on the menu bar. I'm sure there are other good reasons for having a local cache, but to be really useful, it should be able to cache all of the metadata entered, not just some of it.

Can this be fixed in the next release, please?

Thanks...

The code to save and retrieve save all values, however it sounds like the cache is not working correctly, try clearing it and trying on a single CD.

How does one clear the cache?

Remove the file

%appdata%\dbpoweramp

CDRipperCache.bin

Rebuilding the cache file seemed to help with some of the metadata. Still, other custom tags were not retrieved. Here are the tags whose values were not recalled upon reinserting a just-ripped CD:

Copyright, Label, Performer, Producer, Style and UPC Note that there were multiple instances of the PERFORMER tag (six different performers on this particular album).

All of the metadata in the upper half of the CD Ripper, as well as the Album Art, was recovered, including Composer, Album Artist and so on.

Clearing / deleting the cache does not solve the problem. When reinserting a CD for ripping after an error, I have to re-enter almost all of the metadata in the lower part of the screen that comprise custom tags: Copyright, Performer, Producer, Label, UPC (retail barcode) and so on. This is not right, IMHO.
