Re: Tags, Tags, and more Tags ...
I am just ripping a CD and I went thru every track individually to check if there were any unwanted tags. The only one was 'IRSC' which I deleted from all tracks.
I used metadata from the manual-review page:
Next, I'll investigate further ...Comment

Re: Tags, Tags, and more Tags ...
I did it fairly quickly so it's a bit rough & ready. But upon initial ripping there are NO duplicate or unwanted tags/fields:
You can always tell a rogue instantly because they are in block-capitals and the type-face is different.
So that's one stage eliminated.Comment

Re: Tags, Tags, and more Tags ...
Information, Map, and Additions fields are empty.
DSP Effects (lower box) is also empty.
Currently in Deletions there is (still) ALBUMARTISTSORT and ARTISTSORT (because I removed these duplicate tags from a back-up drive/folder on Sunday [I think I also need to add: ALBUMSORT and TITLESORT to this list, so as to delete these additional unwanted tags which I only realized where there as of yesterday?]).
In Manipulation there are 'values' for ARTWORK dimensions and size; Force Embedded To Jpeg (box is checked); and everything else here is unchecked.
So that's how my BATCH CONVERTER 'ID Update' is set.
I shall continue ...
Cheers.

Re: Tags, Tags, and more Tags ...
Hi,
I ran the artwork conversion from folder to embedded in 'ID Tag Update'.
I think I converted it correctly it (in regards to the artwork) because the folder-artwork-Jpeg has now disappeared from the containing folder:
And NO additional duplications (eg. ALBUMARTIST) seem to have been created either; nor TILE and ALBUMSORT.
Life is a mystery?!

Re: Tags, Tags, and more Tags ...
I appreciate your help.
It's a damn odd mystery!
Just before I do anything else, I really would like to check with you please (just to be doubly-sure), if I may:
when I want to use 'TD Tag Update' to REMOVE the duplicate/unwanted tags/fields from my ALREADY ART-EMBEDDED files, do I just delete the 'Import From' selection, and also uncheck the 'Force Embedded To Jpeg' box? You said earlier that if the wrong settings are applied then the art gets 're-embedded' again! As you can see in the screenshots, for the examples/tests this evening I have only used a single Madonna CD (rather than converting the whole 150GB - which took 6 and a half hours!, and still had ALBUMSORT and TITLESORT!).

1- You mean the Madonna CD pre-ripped (ie. whilst sat in 'dBpa')?
2 - You mean the DELETIONS tab in 'ID Tag Updater'?Comment

garym,
Here are a couple of quickies:
For some of the tags (eg. PRODUCER) I just wrote something generic as ripping/processing this CD was purely a means to an end.

Re: Tags, Tags, and more Tags ...
Dont know if they change. That&*8217;s what these tests are trying to figure out. That is, at what point do these extra tags get added. I&*8217;d want to see prerip, postrip, and post running batch conversion.Comment
