Thank you for taking the time to fully explain, I think I understand now . I understood your suggestion to mean only altering multi disc tags thus requiring a second run. If it's possible to do both with filters simultaneously that could be incredibly useful, but I must admit I prefer the logical, rule based layout of dbpa. I've always got mp3tag installed, but for the love of me I've never, ever enjoyed the interface. I couldn't tell you why because I've never worked it out myself but for some reason it's just never 'clicked' with me, which is unfortunate because it's superbly capable for a free program.
The why is because my music is sorted as flac, with 240 vbr aac for portable use, BUT in the year 2017, Renault is manufacturing cars without a Cd player that does not, or cannot, read disk number or track number tags. Or sort files numerically based on file name. Or display album art from an aac file. The list goes on but the short version is that irrespective of the mode of play or file structure, it only ever plays alphabetically through the title metadata, somewhat spoiling albums. The R-Link 2 system in the new Megan is a freaky propitiatory linux system that will support a 2TB hard drive but only the NTFS file system above 32GB volumes (wth?) as it hibernates rather than shutting and also doesn't construct a file database on removable drives, hence performs better with a journalled file system -even on flash drives. Part of the update over the previous years system was the ability to handle aac bit rates greater than 192kbps (in the year 2015!).
As a driving machine, superb. As a music player, outclassed by a $5 Chinese mp3 player :(
Hopefully mvilles solution will do the trick. Fingers crossed
Thank you guys! That did the trick perfectly
Thanks for the explanation. I understand. It is truly amazing how auto playback systems are so outdated. Your situation is even more odd than usual (it uses title metadata but not filename!).
Even though both our cars have these sorts of built in player things, even with drive storage, I never bother with the built in players. I have an old 160GB ipod that is plugged in, and the car system recognizes this as an ipod and allows me to control from the car stereo system and even the steering wheel audio controls.
Hi,
I am running DB poweramp on a Mac and I tried to write replaying gain flags for my music stored on a nas.
Unfortunately it gets stuck and seems to freeze at the finalizing conversion stage.
Is this a bug in the Mac version ?
Did you compare it with a conversion on a local drive?
Dat Ei
The end of the conversion is when it writes the ID Tags, this could be quite slow over a network.
