    Re: Perfecttunes inconsistency

    If you are already in the process of pulling out the disc to re-rip it, I would suggest that running the whole disc isn't going to take too much longer then a single track and will ensure a complete...
  2. Re: Is there a File Name Convention that works with multi composer CD's

    Agreed. Changing the AlbumArtist tag this way allows you to manipulate the naming convention more easily. Again with one track or many, it is irrelevant. As long as you have some other place to get a...
  3. Re: Is there a File Name Convention that works with multi composer CD's

    It still boils down to the same point about finding a consistent tag to use that distinguishes what you want to separate these discs, whether it is for 1 track or 99.

    You could always create a...
  4. Re: Is there a File Name Convention that works with multi composer CD's

    Which is why you would need a consistent other tag to evaluate if there are multiples. Like the Albumartist set to "Various Artists" or even just the compilation flag set to 1.
  5. Re: Is there a File Name Convention that works with multi composer CD's

    What other distinguishing field are you using in the case of these multi-composer discs? Something like an Albumartist field with "Various Artists" would do. You could use an IF condition in your...

    Re: ignore the word 'the'

    You could also use the Sort tags for Artist to ensure this follows for other similar articles you don't want to use when sorting but keep in the displayed list. Things like La, Le, Di, etc. can all...

    Re: Getting correct cover files

    There are defined rules when you register. The number of downloads is monitored, they do not want bots stealing the work contributed by their members. Individual downloads only. And the uploads must...

    Re: Getting correct cover files

    Agreed. You do have to register to get full access, but it is free. There are a few discs I have searched for that they don't have, but for most they do and in some cases they have alternative covers...

    Re: Asset on QNAP not Updating on Library changes

    If you delete any file or folder of tracks after Asset has already made a library reference to them, then the only way to remove them from Asset is during a rescan. This is no different than any...

    Re: Getting correct cover files

    I don't think there is a true standard, it is more personal preference and what your library management and player need. I find jpg is more widely accepted (do not use progressive mode images). The...
  12. Re: Metadata tags in CD Ripper not universally compatible.

    I have been using Apple products including iTunes, AppleTV, and iOS devices for almost as long as they have been available. Apple has purposely avoided FLAC support for some reason they have yet to...
  13. Re: Metadata tags in CD Ripper not universally compatible.

    The problem isn't writing the tags to the file. Most tagging programs can write just about any field you wish to a m4a file.

    It has more to do with the player. iTunes and the newer Apple Music...
  14. Re: Managing Soundtracks and Compilations of Various Artists

    I am not sure of the problem you are describing is regarding the folder/file naming, or the tag structure. These are two very different things. However from what you have described you are looking at...
  15. Re: Managing Soundtracks and Compilations of Various Artists

    If the local files have the correct tags but this Eversolo device is making its' own library you will need to work with them to resolve. Sounds like this is outside of the scope of dbPA.
  16. Re: Managing Soundtracks and Compilations of Various Artists

    The Album Artist field is a critical one specifically for these compilation and soundtracks. This is the field that along with the Album field will ensure each disc gets ripped, stored, and can be...

    Re: mp3 setting

    If the files are already 16-bit then there is no advantage to upsampling them to 24- or 32-bit. But the files will increase in size as a big disadvantage.

    Re: dBpoweramp for macOS?

    Are you sure you were ripping CDs with more than one thread? I don't think this was the case. However when converting tracks multiple cores can be used, one per file.

    Re: Will not convert .shn files

    This is only available in 32-bit installs. The format hasn't been actively developed since 2007.

    You also have to install the codec if you haven't already done so from here. ...
