    Popup tag info Win 7

    Hello, Just transferred my music collection to a new computer with Win 7 home premium. Installed Reference 13.3 and noticed a change in the way the popup tag info is displaying when I mouse over the song files.

    Sometimes the popup doesn't come up at all. Other times it shows the correct and complete tag info, on other songs it appears to display an abbreviated list of data e.g., leaving off the original year info that is present in the tag. When I check the tags in these cases all the info is there, it's just not appearing in the popup as it used to.
    Checked dbpoweramp config and folder options and things seem to be properly set/enabled. Reinstalled Converter and there was no change.

    Searched but did not see this mentioned. If someone has commented on a solution please point me toward it. Thanks.

      Thanks for the reply,
      In Win7 under the library view for Music the popup displays complete info showing dbpoweramp at bottom.
      When mousing over these same song files accessed through My Computer/Users the popup will include most of the data, such as accurate rip info, but will often appear abbreviated with the bottom few data lines left off, including some or all of...Composer, Disc, Original Year and dbpoweramp label. When I open the edit tag box the data is topped by the dbpoweramp info and appers to be complete. Is the amount of popup data restricted in this view?
      When checking these same files in the XP computer under My computer/Doc and Settings/Users using 13.3 the popup info is complete and shows "dbpoweramp" as the last line.

        Yes there is a restriction on the size of the popup info, as an example on that file press the delete key, Windows will offer to send the file to the recycle bin (you can cancel the delete), the info shown here has more lines.

          Thanks, didn't notice that limit when using 13.3 on a winXP machine and the popup launch was smoother and quicker on the XP operating system. I got used to using the popup as a quicker way to check tag edits.
          Depending on where you access the file in this Win7 system, I find the popup function can be balky or non-functional.
          If others confirm this as a problem please consider it in a future revision.
          Appreciate your replies.
