Does that mean you don't appreciate questions that can be answered by a download, installation and failed attempt?

But no, the main window still only supports ID3v1 and that standard does not allow any changes in genres.

---

Will this, then, be a permenant limitation of Audiograbber? I've been using it for a few years and checking back in now and again on this forum with the question thinking v2 genre support is something you'll be incorporating. If not, and you find the question annoying, then moving on to a product that incorporates it is not a problem.

FWIW, I've recommended A.G. to a large number of people over the years on usenet and various mailing lists and someone always points out this limitation (and the track at a time work around) if I forget to. It has become more important with the increased usage of hardware players that internally organize their content by genre and require ID3v2 tags for it.

Thanks,

Bob

AG will support an easier way of editing the ID3v2 tag. Perhaps it won't be implemented until the major GUI updated version 2.0 but the intention is to support it. As of now, you can have the same genre for all tracks taken from the ID3v1. For most people that is good enough.

Enter the username and password you got in the mail. You should see a page with some info about the beta and a box where you are supposed to enter your serial number, also from the mail. Then press the download button.

Whenever I use that command line (and have the "Use ID3v1 tag" unclicked), the track number is not passed on. If I have the "Use ID3v1 tag" checked, it only passes part of the track name, and doesn't pass the track number either. I had to reformat before I tried this (damn hard drive crashes), so it's quite possible that I set it up wrong somehow, although my command line is the exact same as before (I grabbed it from these forums ). Any help is appreciated.

[Edit]Ok, it's still acting funky... On certain track names (without any special characters other than spaces), it'll just chop the name field to like 5 letters including the space. I really don't get it now. This is without a doubt one of the most confusing things ever =\.[/Edit]

[Edit2]I think I've found the culprit. My command line works completely. Winamp 3 is not displaying the track number field correctly I don't think. There's something else though. When I try to encode a long-named track, it does not send all the information. Almost like it's too much and it has to cut it at some point (hence the truncated file names). I look at the information Audiograbber is sending oggenc (in that little box) and that's how I found out. I'll include a picture if you want, but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. In one instance, I have parenthases in the track name and it doesn't even encode it at all, it doesn't bring up the command window that oggenc uses. Yay beta software, hehe.[/Edit2]

The ogg encoder seems to have some problems sometimes though, and also winamp is not the best OGG playback software.

I have hit command line limits in windows before, can remember how long it was. But I know it has gotten longer with NT & 2K.

Try moving your music to C:\Music rather the a buried sub-dir of "My Docs".

Probably the oggenc.exe that has changed. Have you tried with the old ogg?

Could this be a bug or a problem with my drive (MATSUSHITAUJDA710)?

Can you tell me what the drive reports as the last frame for the last track on a "normal" TOC detection? (Check by doubleclicking the last track).
