Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

Update: problem finally recreated - using your config *and* CD image of one of the albums that you triggered it with.

A new beta will be out shortly, thank you for your patience.

If someone hasn't told you lately that you're GREAT, well, you are! Thanks in advance!

Thanks for sending me the configuration dump so quickly. I have the file and I'm investigating it.

Thanks for your patience so far.

I'm afraid I've been unable to recreate this bug on my system so far or come up with an explanation why it occurs.

I'd like you to enter dBpoweramp configuration, "converter" tab, use "save configuration snapshot" button and mail the file it creates to peter@dbpoweramp.com for analysis - hopefully I can then duplicate any potential configuration quirks in effect and recreate the bug.

Peter, I just sent you an email. The tgz config file is 141MB, so I couldn't send it via normal Gmail as it's servers would not allow something that large. It went out using Apple's iCloud method for large attachments and should arrive with instructions how to get to it. If you don't receive or can't retrieve, let me know and I'll set up something with DropBox to get the file to you.

Thanks, and Happy Holidays. Bert

Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

The files appear to be OK and play properly using good gear.
I -could- try to convert them one at a time; perhaps that might be useful.

Let me know. And, Happy Holidays!

Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

Been using the Batch Converter today to tweak some volume normalization. I adjust both panes exactly the way i want them and then select some directories and run convert. However, when the conversion finishes, the panes lose their settings and i have to re-adjust them. Can you make the pane settings sticky? That would be really helpful. Thanks.

I am afraid that this is a symptom of your files being incomplete, perhaps an incomplete download?

Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

Thanks for all the bug reports, we're delaying R16 stable until all of them have been properly investigated.

As for some of the bugs not appearing on re-rip, it is likely that some issues - metadata related in particular - creep up only the first time some disc is seen, not if its metadata is already in dBpoweramp's cache.

Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

In case it's helpful, in addition to the previous examples from that Elaine Paige Encores album where several tracks have the problem using the R16 beta, here's a few more albums I've run into the problem within the past couple of days. Each only had a single track that failed. Re-ripping with R15.8 replaced the errant track with proper meta data and art.
- Barbra Streisand / Essential Barbra Streisand / 1-18
- Barbra Streisand / One Night Only / 13
- Barbra Streisand / A Collection Greatest Hits ...and more / 12

Peter, if helpful, here's an interesting point I just ran across: I have two compilation albums with some of the same tracks and same default tagging. Interesting, that the two of the tracks that fail with R16b on the first album, also fail on the other separate CD. The bug must have something to do with the track content -- what? IDK!

Cirque du Soleil / Tapis Rouge Solarium / tracks 4 & 10 fail with the beta
Cirque du Soleil / Solarium/Delirium / disc 1, tracks 4 & 10 fail with the beta

As before, re-ripping with R15.8 works fine with the failing tracks on both albums/CDs.

Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

I only re-ripped the first two tracks again, as 1st is problematic, but 2nd is OK with Apple Lossless and R16b12. FLAC and MP3 have same failure as Apple Lossless with the 1st track -- only containing the same 4 tags as my previous Apple Lossless problem screenshots. (Phewww. At least this one is re-creatable!) If you need me to re-rip the full disc or do something else to help, just let me know. TU

Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

NP. Thank YOU.

...but I'm feeling like an idiot. I've gone back and started ripping now 9 difference multi-disc albums -- all the same ones I had problems with and manually edited filenames, and they are each ripping correctly now with R16b12. All I can say is I've played extensively with DSP Effects adding, deleting and reloading them to help ID the other issue, and now it's working. Chaulk it up to user error and delete this one from your investigative process. SORRY (but I know I wasn't screwed-up having done that editing I did to keep filenames straight).

Peter! It took me some time to figure it out, but I think there really is a bug with R16b. I don't believe it was me.

With R15.8, the file naming logic I provided upthread works with a multi-disc album, no matter whether ID Tag Processing / Manipulation / "Drop Track Count" is checked or not. Great.

With R16b12, using the same file naming logic that works with R15.8, if Drop Track Count is UNCHECKED, all is well. OTOH, if Drop Track Count is CHECKED, R16b12 acts differently than R15 and the track naming logic does not place the disc number in front of the track name as it should. It seems something different than R15 is happening between "Drop Track Count", IFCOMP and/or IFMULTI when the option is enabled.

Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

Thanks for the bug report, the problem is being investigated.

In meanwhile, does it make any difference if you attempt ripping to another file format, such as FLAC or MP3?

I only re-ripped the first two tracks again, as 1st is problematic, but 2nd is OK with Apple Lossless and R16b12. FLAC and MP3 have same failure as Apple Lossless with the 1st track -- only containing the same 4 tags as my previous Apple Lossless problem screenshots. (Phewww. At least this one is re-creatable!)

Re: dBpoweramp R16 for Mac OS X beta Discussions

Thanks for the bug report and sorry about slow reply.

I used your exact string and could not see anything out of ordinary with multi disc albums; disc number gets included as intended. What exact album are you seeing these symptoms with?

A semi-related bug with track numbers not being present in "filename" column of ripper has been addressed, but that's not what is troubling you.

NP. Thank YOU.
