Missing Albums and Meta Tags (dBpoweramp Reference 15.6)

[Bark]

Should I expect a major improvement in meta tagging if I upgrade to the latest version of dBpoweramp Ripper?

My problem is that I was probably the last person to purchase Version 15.6 (Bundle) without receiving a complimentary upgrade to Version 16.x. Since then I have seen a significant...

I know that I can create a Custom ID Tag and add a value to a Custom ID Tag when a Rip a CD using dBpoweramp. I can also modify its value after it has been ripped by opening it in File Explorer - right clicking and selecting dBpoweramp - Edit ID Tags. But this method of modification requires opening...

I'm using Release 17.4 (1) of PowerAmp Music Converter / CD Ripper, on a Mac mini running MacOS v12.2 (Monterey).

I have a CD inserted and the metadata retrieval gets stuck on Discogs, and reports it is done with GD3, MusicBrainz, and Freedb. I wait several minutes and it doesn't resolve....

all meta data is transfered correctly besides
- track number
- Disc number
After conversion the track and disc number has changed to the format 1/11
I would like to keep the two digit pattern 01 without the total...

Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum and apologize if these questions have been asked before but I want to get things right before embarking on ripping my collection of approximately 1000 CDs. It seems like a worthy project to start during these difficult times but I want to avoid making mistakes....

I purchased dBpoweramp license about 2 years ago and have not had great results finding meta tags for audiobooks. The ripper usually does not find any tags and occasionally finds tags for some volumes/discs but not for others. It is rare that the ripper finds consistent tags for all volumes/discs in...

Upgraded to 17.1 recently and noticed some slightly rude behavior in Custom & Fixed Value Tags in that sometimes these values seem to get saved to disk and other times they don't. They stay consistent as long as the program is open but revert back to an earlier session if closed and reopened. To...

I tried CD Ripper, liked the sound, ignored the meta data search speed - and bought it.
Now I am having problems with exactly that: Meta data search blocks the app and keeps me waiting for minutes, and sometimes finds it, and sometimes it doesn't find anything (with the same cd).
I tried...

Hi,

There is a conditional converter in batch ripper converting only files which do not exist in the destination.

I am looking for some function that does update the meta data in the destination for an existing file but do no conversion. I have 25000 files with changed meta...

I found a couple of huge boxes of CDs I hadn't ripped (easily 1000cds) and have about 100 left. Suddenly, this morning, after closing CD Ripper and restarting it a few minutes later, CD Ripper returns no meta data for any cds. I've restarted the computer and the program and this issue persists. There...

The Aurender app for the N10 lists a Conductor field for some music conducted by John Eliot Gardiner, but not others. I do not find a Conductor field in the PerfectTunes ID tag interface.

How can I add a Conductor field?

I installed our first seat of dBpoweramp for Mac for our Music Director several weeks ago. He claims it does not return metadata in the same way that it does with the Windows version. There's either fewer results or none at all. He is already familiar with the Windows version, so he has a pretty good...

With titles like this in the meta data:

The Four Seasons (Il quattro stagione), concertos (4) for violin, strings & continuo ("Il cimento" Nos. 1-4) , Op. 8/1 - 4: No. 1 In E Major, RV 269 "La primavera"~Movement 3, Allegro

It seems the aac encoder gets...

When I started using dBpoweramp a few months ago, I routinely saw 3-4 lists of metadata. For the past couple of weeks I haven't, and am now seeing only Music Brainz (which sometimes means no meta at all). As far as I know there have been no changes to the security settings or security software on my...

Is it possible to edit the meta data of Hi Rez files and convert their format (eg AIFF to FLAC), similar to the way CDs are ripped and the meta data can be modified and associated with multiple different formats using CD Ripper. The ability to modify and customize the meta data that are associated...
