Hello Jackie,

there are two things about id3v2 Tags:

1. AG uses the TSSE Tag to add the "Audiograbber 1.82.02, External encoder lame.exe (--alt-preset standard %s %d)" Line. Would it be possible to (add an option to) change it to the TENC Tag, since it's more supported?
Ok, TSSE is the correct tag (TSSE corresponds to the Hard- and Software used, TENC to the Person), but i'd rather like to use the TENC Tag.
An Option could be like:
TENC Tag:
[ ] Same as TSSE Tag (Uses BOTH Tags)
[ ] Instead of TSSE (Uses ONLY TENC)
[ ] Custom: <My Name> (Uses TSSE like before and Adds the Information to TENC)

2. When i rip Double CDs, i don't create 2 Directories "CD (CD 1 of 2)" and "CD (CD 2 of 2)". I'd rather give both CDs the Same Name and use 1- or 2- as File Name Prefix (1-01. First Song of First CD.mp3, 2-03. Third Song of Second CD.mp3). However, i'd like to use the TPOS Tag to specify the CD i use:

TPOS
The 'Part of a set' frame is a numeric string that describes which
part of a set the audio came from. This frame is used if the source
described in the "TALB" frame is divided into several mediums, e.g. a
double CD. The value MAY be extended with a "/" character and a
numeric string containing the total number of parts in the set. E.g.
"1/2"

So my MP3 Tag looks like:
TIT2.......Fairytale
TPE1.......Gamma Ray
TALB.......Alive '95
TRCK.....5/13
TYER.......1995
TCON.......Heavy Metal
TENC.......iTunes v3.0
TPOS.......1/2 <-- Thats the important Tag for me
(1/2 obviously means CD 1 of 2)

Is it possible to add an Option for TPOS in the Future?
I tried to make a batch file as External Encoder that first starts lame.exe to convert and then a self-written tagger to tag the TPOS. Unfortunately, Audiograbber will tag the File afterwards itself and therefore destroys my tag.

So, could you either support the TPOS Tag or give me the option, to launch a program file AFTER Audiograbber has tagged and moved the File to it's final Place?

Thanks in Advance!

What happens if you uncheck the "Use ID3-tags"? Then AG won't create any tags, and your app should work. Right?

Well, yes. But how do i get the Tags then?
I need:

Artist, Title, Track Number in Format 01/12, Genre, Year, TPOS

Audiograbber only passes the following Arguments to an external MP3 Encoder:
%s Source File
%d Destination File
%1 Artist
%2 Album
%3 Track Number
%4 Track Name

No Year, No Genre and the Track Number is in the Format 01

Ok, i can cope with that for now (i need to enter the TPOS anyway as Argument, so i can pass the Total Number of Tracks, the Genre and the Year as Argument as well), but i would recomment to add a feature either to support the TPOS or to pass the other thigs as argument to an external encoder anyway (this would not "blow up" the GUI).

My Point about the TENC can be ignored by the way, i was just to blind to see that there is already an option for the TENC Tag.
