New Music Tag Reader -- Testers needed (1 Viewer)

[SteveV]

Hi steve, running latest version now, ogg pros seems to be working now.

On question: would it be possible to include a human-readable interface for the database? It probably should be low-pri but if it is easy to implement. I mean sometying like .xml export/import so that the user may read the db info in an xml file, do search and replace manually, debug tagging etc, then import that info back into the usual high-performance database.

Knut

I'll add this to the long term todo. Remind me if you don't hear anything on 2-3 weeks.

Done! Retrieved 17241 tags in 00:08:19,44 (0,029 secods pr track)

I scimmed the log. Common:
MP3Tag.get_Year caused an exception: Input string was not in a correct format.

WmaTag.Read caused an exception: Unable to load DLL 'WMVCore2.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
TagReader.ReadTag returned false for: C:\musikk\filename.wma

15.07.2006 18:41:29 MP3Tag.get_CoverArtImageBytes caused an exception: Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow.

What OS are you running the tag reader on? IIRC WMVCore2.dll is only present on WinXP SP1 and higher.

Regarding the various errors; can you email some of the affect files so I can try to track this down?

Thanks,

Steve

WmaTag.Read caused an exception: Unable to load DLL 'WMVCore2.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
TagReader.ReadTag returned false for: C:\musikk\filename.wma

Same issue here with WMP 11.0.5358.4827

AFAIK the ID3v2 standard does not support multiple artists. But - from memory - WMP 10 presented multiple artist files correctly under each artist whenever they were separated with a column, e.g. "Ray Charles; Norah Jones".

yup - that's right. it does the same with genres too, and it's a mighty useful feature! Basically it splits the tag up into multiple values with a ;

Can those of you having problems reading wma files try this test version[LINK REMOVED]. It eliminates the dependancy on WMVCore2.dll.

Thanks -- Steve

[EDIT]
Test version removed as problem should be fixed in MPTagReaderTest versions 0.23 and up.

Done. Unfortunately, the issue is not solved yet. But now, the error message is a bit different:

WmaTag.Read caused an exception: Die DLL WMVCore2.dll: Das angegebene Modul wurde nicht gefunden. (Ausnahme von HRESULT: 0x8007007E) kann nicht geladen werden.

(English translation)

WmaTag.Read caused an exception: The DLL WMVCore2.dll: The specified Module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) can not be loaded.
