[quote][i]Originally posted by michealb1969[/i] As per your instructions, I just down eJukebox and restarted. It shows the 32 songs, and the interesting thing about those is that they were assigned to the metal genre by eJukebox, using the internal editor. When I open a song in the internal editor to see its genre, there is only a blank. By the way, it isn't only doing this to the metal songs, that was just my example. It is doing it to all of the songs. The suggestion to use the internal editor seems impractical as I have so many songs and artists that going through them one by one would take more time than would seem necessary. I also am worried at this point about using eJukebox on my files. If it isn't reading the IDv tags properly, I'm worried what it might do to the files themselves. [/quote] I am having similar problems and it's driving me bonkers! I'm just about to knock eJukebox on the head, I've spent the last 4 days solid back and forth between eJukebox and Tag & Rename, I've been using T&R V3.2rc1 but I've also used V3.2 and V3.2rc2 over the last few days to try and fix the problem, to no avail. It appears that eJukebox is not reading the id3 tags, or at least not consistently, all my files are tagged with id3v1 and v2 and most but not all, contain the album art. eJukebox appears to sometimes read the tags, when it feels like it, but not always. I draw this conclusion as all my tagged files are named by just the track title; no artist, album or track number is coded into the filename and I really don't want to name them this way if I can avoid it, ejukebox however, is listing tracks of say "Carpenters, The" under the first letter of the file name in the artist list. I am also having a problem, as I have posted elsewhere on this forum, with building the database, ejukebox hangs nearing the end of building. This appeared to be happening on the same track, so I removed this and the entire album, but then the problem shifted to another track, I repeated the process and removed the new offending track, same deal, until it hung on a track which I had previously witnessed ejukebox read with no problem and figured that was a herring rouge! Finally, I have just tried rebuilding the database, but this time, pointing it at one album folder containing only previously troublesome files. All went well, the database built ok, granted with only one album, but the .asn file reduced from several megs to 644kB! However, all bar one track displays with the first letter of the file name, being interpreted as the artist name and funnily enough the one track that displayed correctly was the one on which the database build repeatedly hung before. No album art is initially displayed despite all tracks having the same embedded artwork and there is also a cover.jpg and folder.jpg of the same artwork in the folder containing the tracks. When I play the track displaying the correct artist details the cover art appears and then when I refresh the albums the cover appears, but when I click this, only the one track appears in the album track list. When I play any other track off this album, no artwork displays and the artist still appars as the first letter of the track! I have subsequently checked the id3 info and artwork in tag and rename, itunes and windows explorer for all these tracks and all is fine! There is something inconsistent and seriously screwed up in eJukebox, there appears to be a number of people experiencing this or very similar problems dating back well over a year judging by the forums. I certainly feel it deserves looking at closely and sorting out. I don't believe it is the fault of Tag and Rename, compatibility with other apps backs up this assumption, but what about compatibility of the jpeg image, with eJukebox, does it, for example, have to be progressive or not and is there a maximum pixel size? Just some thoughts, but even if the image is a problem this doesn’t explain the artist, album and track info being read from the id3 tag. Audiosoft, I think we need an answer, I'll gladly send you my mp3s if it helps diagnose the problem. eJukebox certainly looks like it could be a very nice product but amongst some of it's other idiosyncrasies, this problem is a crippling make or break and I'm just about at the point of giving up. Before anyone asks have I done this or that, rest assured I've tried just about everything suggested on this forum, so please don't ask the obvious! That said if you have any obscure suggestions, I'm more than willing to help, so just to confirm, yes they are all mp3, no WMAs, I've tried every way of rebuilding the database and adding files, with and without deleting the .asn file and replacing with a new one, and clearing out the .m3u file. So, anybody got any ideas? Thanks for reading that diatribe, sorry if it went on a bit, but a complicated and detailed scenario to describe. Thanks and regards Jamie Sorry, in all that I should have said, I'm using V3.991
