Ogg Tags are not read correctly

**shakes** · 04-27-2005, 10:30 PM

ok i'm a tard ... it didn't open when i double clicked it, but opening access then doing file/open worked ...

also i have office xp ... not office 2003 ...

aaaany way, here's the deal ...

SOME of the OGG files are listed in the DB as they should ... all the information is in the proper field.

However, a lot of them have the file name minus any dashes as the fldlID3Title, and then everything else is 'other'

For example:
Lovedrug - The Rock n Roll EP - 01 - Rock n Roll.ogg has
fldlID3Title = Lovedrug The Rock n Roll EP 01 Rock n Roll

everything else is other ... except the TrackNo is 00.

But again, others are fine.

Ideas?

Well, as long as the filename (including path) is being stored correctly, my little app should work for you after I add support for ogg.

As to why it is doing that, I am not sure. Frodo would have to answer that. Are you able to see the tags correctly in other applications?

if you could work OGG into your APP that'd be awesome as a band-aid for now.

Winamp reads the tags fine ... as does tag editing apps like The Godfather. Haven't tried WMP.

Frodo if you need me to send you some files that work and some that don't work let me know.

Ok, Well I should be able to add it tonight or Friday. I will post a download link when done.

Crap, I completly forgot about it. I am at work now but I actually have time tonight. I will update you when I get home.

Ok, found my source started this last night. Should be done at some point today.

Ok, I did not test it because I did not have any ogg files. But for the sake of not making you wait, here it is. It should work fine, it was rather a small change. Let me know if you have any problems.

first of all thanks a ton.

I just installed and ran this ... and for the most part it did good however a lot of songs took on the same artist/name.

It's late so I need to hit it for the night ... but tomorrow I will do a complete rebuild and gather some more useful data. Maybe I can send you a few files to test.

Please do, mjhermann@hotmail.com. Send me what every you can and I will do my best to fix it. Include your mdb file. And actually, I can convert one of my cds to ogg and test it myself. Which I should have done in the first place. But give me your feedback and we will see if we can get this fixed.
