Missing Meta data
Hi,
I just started using this to batch convert an APE'd CD library to LAME. Windows Explorer with the APE files shows the file name, track #, title, artist and album. Opening those files in LameXP, everything is missing except the file name. After encoding, that has not changed. I have set the Rename Output Files to [<TrackNo>] <Artist> - <Album> - <Title>. Still, none of that data is picked up from the APE files. Any ideas? Thanks, Jeff

If not, what if you open the "problematic" file with MediaInfo? Does it detect the info

Just installed MediaInfo and then reopended LameXP. Still no tagging. Will restart PC and see if that fixes it.
edit: Resrtarted PC. No joy. Loaded a file into MediaInfo and can't find where I would see the meta tags. However, I loaded a file into MP3Tag and the info displayed immediately. edit: OK, found "sheet" anc customized it for Artist, Album, Track # and Title. No joy. None of that is displayed. Yet Mp3tag shows it.

But you do not need to install MediaInfo separately. It's already included with LameXP! Still, it would be interesting to know if standalone MediaInfo correctly detects the meta info from your "problematic" file or not. If it doesn't, then this clearly is a MediaInfo bug/limitation and there is nothing that could be done on the LameXP side. Otherwise, it would indicate some LameXP bug...

In this case, please send bug report (or feature request) to the MediaInfo developer.

Following up to my issue - my workaround was to use a piece of software that didn't have a reliance on MediaInfo. It was not multi-threaded or multicore-aware and ran at 20% of the speed of LameXP. (And I installed it immediately as it was the naggiest freeware I have ever encountered.) But it did carry the tags through the conversion.
I am someone who *always* contributes to authors of freeware and wish I had been able to use LameXP. I am not a troll nor am I trying to flame this fine work; just being honest in the hope that this limitation is fixed. I can't be the only user wanting to convert tagged audio files. Jeff

I just looked to see how I could donate ... put my money where my ... yadda, yadda. While I could help you order food and drink in a Mexican restaurant, I can't offer translation. Or code. So, all I can do is thank you. Jeff

I have ignored the 4.12 betas until this RC 1 iteration. I had to struggle with Avast anti virus to download and install it and have notified them that they are getting a false positive result deeming it suspicious and forbidding its download. They will review it the next cycle of their process. In the past they have always conceded Lame XP is safe when challenged. I found the RC 1 loads quickly and performs well. Thanks again for this gift.

@LoRd_MuldeR
It would be cool if we could search and download cover art directly from LameXP. I've done similar app but for movie posters. You could use http://musicdatabase.co/ as source.

Oh jeez...
Seeing 'The Hoff' at any time of the day can be a bit of a shock

when I put several flacs from different folders, for example 4 CDs with ~18 tracks in each, it sums up to ~70 tracks, and when choosing to name by track number, it names the first track of CD 2 as 19 - artist - title, instead of 01 - artist - title.
is there a possibility to change this behavior so it would name it according to the meta data track number? |

Set it to "Unspecified (copy from source)", if you wish to retain the "track number" stored in the original file - only works, if such info was present in the original file, of course! Quote:
