EJ cuts the tags?
Pirk - 11-13-2010 at 10:56 PM

Audiosoft, since the latest updates i noticed that often ejukebox seems to cut the tags. for instance, the end of a album name is missing in one of the songs, then ej creates a new album just for this song.. same problem can occur with artist names. i tried to rebuild but i still notice this kind of problem.
have you changed something in the way ej reads or writes the tags since the latest updates?

in the album list only or the tag editor?

edit a song in the editor and click > to save
click < and then click twice the 2nd button at the top left on the editor
to rebuild that song only. all the fields reload good for me.

i noticed the problem in the shelf3d when sometimes the same cover is displayed twice. 2 different albums are displayed in the songlist. i can fix it using the tag editor. but why these bad tags started to appear? i never seen that before.

another strange issue: i never seen before "unknown CD #3810...... ??? well i fixed it too using the tag editor, then rebuilding the album folder since a song was missing!

must be some other program doing that to the tag because there is nothing in EJ that outputs anything like "unknown CD #"

ahh.. maybe you are right. i must confess i tried some other "programs" these last months. just to see "the difference" and new ideas for my ejukebox skin!

:P it's ok i forgive you

going to go check the ie9 team blog now and see if they have anything new for us to play with :D

ah a bunch of cool 10K demos was hoping they put those subpixel fonts to work with text-shadow.

relieved you forgiven me.. the heaven of ejukebox is for me! :D

otherwise, on earth.. IE9 is working not bad, except that there is one major thing which often spoil the festivities: on song changes ejukebox is "thinking" a very long time before it updates all its panels. no white screens, but the overlayer in PNGs stay unsettled and the standard panels go away partially out of the screen (top left) and freeze maybe during 20s. EJ not responding, why? however if i try again this morning it seems it works normally, for now! maybe it's another "devil" program who sometimes monopolize the cpu, ram or hard disk during the night? but i don't think so..
another IE9 "bug", constant this time, is the song change anim in now playing not working properly. the "made in Audiosoft labs" anim features for up next and songlist are not working good too, but i just disabled them.

here is the Typical screen that i get: only the blur square is added by me in photoshop to hide a exclusive part before Christmas! (timeslider.png)
it can also occur when i just skip a song even with all the anims disabled.. Untidy!
