Bug Reports / Stange Error Log Entries

Last post by phred on May 15, 2024, 09:20:07 PM   |  Started by phred

Using 3.6.8881 through 3.6.8891 on Win10

@Steven...
I haven't had any odd behavior in MB, nor has this error appeared in a popup. I was cleaning up ErrorLog.dat file and found about a dozen of these dating back to April 26, which is the last time I cleared out the error log. So it could have been appearing before that. Thought you might want to know about this in case it's something to be concerned with.

Code

Questions / Re: Embedding Track Lables in Mix MP3, Displaying in MusicBee

Last post by xyresic on May 15, 2024, 08:09:09 PM   |  Started by xyresic

Exactly.  Out of curiosity, which app do you use to assign the markers?  I'm frankly kinda shocked that Mp3Tag doesn't do this.  There are a few audiobook/podcast apps, some quite old (markers appear to have been supported since 2005) but they are pretty klunky.  I did find a Github hosted app that runs in a browser that will take and MP3 and a text entry containing all the markers in the format you described.  One test proved successful, but it does require saving to a new file which I then need to copy back over to my repo.  It's just takes time and manual entry.  I may quickly code something to generate the list which I can copy/paste into the app to save some of the headache.

Questions / Re: Syncing playcounts of short songs with last.fm

Last post by Axxonn on May 15, 2024, 06:15:55 PM   |  Started by Saturnknight

I'm sure I remember from years ago Last.fm intentionally didn't scrobble <30 second songs, to stop people 'competitively' listening, racking up millions of scrobbles by making a 1 second track with a different  song's name so it looks like they're the biggest fan of an artist. I vaguely recall seeing someone with more plays of a new album than if you'd spent 24 hours listening continuously since it was released 

But besides my reminiscing, it might be worth looking at the option for what constitutes a 'played' track, under preferences -> now playing, at the bottom mine says playing 50% or 240 seconds of a track will count, while under 20 seconds will tally as skipped (I don't think I've changed those from the default). Might have some bearing on what gets logged to be sent, but I'm just guessing. And this is probably what you say you've tried but there are some old threads with people addressing this exact issue https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=40336.0

Questions / Long reading of music files from hard disk at startup

Last post by Joey2001 on May 15, 2024, 05:48:35 PM   |  Started by Joey2001

When I start Musicbee for the first time after booting the computer, the program starts to browse through the library.
The hard disk is 100% busy and the whole process takes quite a while (approx. 375,000 music files).
Why is the process running?
I have checked "Monitor continuously" in the settings. "Read only at startup" is not checked.
(see picture)
What should I set so that this does not happen?
In the settings, I expected Musicbee to start with the last save and only make changes when I add or delete files.

Questions / Re: Embedding Track Lables in Mix MP3, Displaying in MusicBee

Last post by Axxonn on May 15, 2024, 05:44:26 PM   |  Started by xyresic

I have a lot of dj mixes and audiobooks as single mp3 files too. Unless you physically mean splitting the file into multiple mp3s, which can be done using a cuesheet or importing the list of timestamps into a program like Audacity then exporting each part... I think you must be referring to chapters like Steven says.

Personally, I have the lyrics box showing in the sidebar, and with the (timed) tracklist in the lyrics tag, it will either scroll along as you pass each marker (karaoke style), or you can click on the any of the lines in the 'lyrics' and it will jump right to the point that starts. Might be my favourite feature of MB!

The format has to be [00:00] Track 1, [03:30] Track 2 etc. in minutes and seconds, and thousandths of a second if necessary [mm:ss.ttt] . I could explain more if that sort of thing is what you mean, I do this quite often to add extra lines into tracks if I want to make a note at a particular point.

edit: looks like you sorted it while I was typing that, no worries

That was it.  Mp3Tag doesn't edit chapter tags.  I didn't know what they were called and after some more internet sleuthing, I found some tools that will do it.  Successfully updated an MP3 today with the chapter tags.  Not terribly complicated once you find the right tool.  It was confusing because the mix MP3 had both embedded chapter tags and a description tag with the same information.  Thank you -

Portable Devices / Setting For Walkman NW-A50

Last post by DJWG on May 15, 2024, 02:39:18 PM   |  Started by DJWG

I have a Walkman (NW-A50) and am trying out MusicBee for uploading music files and playlists, after my last music player stopped synching correctly with the device.
Which isn't going as well as I would have hoped.
Does anyone have a list of settings for the storage path naming template?

Have you tried looking at Sony's product site? Or a Sony forum/user group. You're more likely to get Sony settings from one of those than here.

Portable Devices / Setting For Walkman NW-A50

Last post by DJWG on May 15, 2024, 02:39:18 PM   |  Started by DJWG

I have a Walkman (NW-A50) and am trying out MusicBee for uploading music files and playlists, after my last music player stopped synching correctly with the device.
Which isn't going as well as I would have hoped.
Does anyone have a list of settings for the storage path naming template?

Questions / Re: Embedding Track Lables in Mix MP3, Displaying in MusicBee

Last post by Axxonn on May 15, 2024, 05:44:26 PM   |  Started by xyresic

I have a lot of dj mixes and audiobooks as single mp3 files too. Unless you physically mean splitting the file into multiple mp3s, which can be done using a cuesheet or importing the list of timestamps into a program like Audacity then exporting each part... I think you must be referring to chapters like Steven says.

Personally, I have the lyrics box showing in the sidebar, and with the (timed) tracklist in the lyrics tag, it will either scroll along as you pass each marker (karaoke style), or you can click on the any of the lines in the 'lyrics' and it will jump right to the point that starts. Might be my favourite feature of MB!

The format has to be [00:00] Track 1, [03:30] Track 2 etc. in minutes and seconds, and thousandths of a second if necessary [mm:ss.ttt] . I could explain more if that sort of thing is what you mean, I do this quite often to add extra lines into tracks if I want to make a note at a particular point.

edit: looks like you sorted it while I was typing that, no worries

That was it.  Mp3Tag doesn't edit chapter tags.  I didn't know what they were called and after some more internet sleuthing, I found some tools that will do it.  Successfully updated an MP3 today with the chapter tags.  Not terribly complicated once you find the right tool.  It was confusing because the mix MP3 had both embedded chapter tags and a description tag with the same information.  Thank you -
