I'm playing around with the "Externally Script Tags' option of the ID Tag Processing DSP running in CD Ripper, and noticed a problem. I'm testing with a CD that's got multiple Style tags. Those normally rip fine, but if I run anything via Externally Script Tags, the resulting FLAC has only a single Style tag in it, for the first value. I first noticed when I set the script to bring up the %idtagstxt% file in an editor (gvim). The Style tag in that file had a line of "Style=style1^Mstyle2", but after ripping, the FLAC only had Style=style1, and not the expected addition Style=style2. The same issue of corrupting multiply-valued tags did not occur for other tags like Artist or Composer.
To make sure this had nothing to do with the script being invoked, I changed the script option to just 'cmd.exe /c "exit 0"', so the %idtagstxt% file wasn't touched. Same problem - Style loses all but the first value, other tags seem fine. I also switched to a testing profile that got rid of all the DSPs except the Externally Script Tag option in ID Tag Processing, to make sure it wasn't related to anything else I ran. Still repros.
Here are the settings from my extraction log:
I'm guessing this is due to special handling for tags which might be multi-valued, and separated by Ctrl-M in the tags text file. Did Style get left off that list? What tags are allowed to be multi-valued? Artist, Artist Sort, Composer, Composer Sort, Soloists, and Style? Anything else?
Thanks for a great program.
