Problems with Cue-Sheet generated entries (tracks)

Post by Timo_Beil »

"Add/Rescan files to the Library" creates "tracks" from cuesheets (flac), that works fine.
After I move the library to another location (not only drive letter), these tracks are not migrated with "Find moved/missing files".
Rescanning brings them back... but only partly wrong with fresh properties from the cue-sheet.
Is there any way to preserve the properties in the DB when moving the library?

MM causes a real mess during migration, writing the properties of one track from the cue-sheet into the file tags of the corresponding flac. Now manual correction is the only solution.

There appears to be some reluctance to accept this as an issue.

Maybe it is a tough one.

Hi,
No, we are just doing investigation and testing CUE support is new feature and due the lack of more massive user base things can slip thru. NOTE that I have made my first CUESheet Editor 25 years ago ;) It is very robust format, sadly not fully utilized even today.

Is this issue being tracked?

It was marked as fixed a year ago
3) Test various file operations like Auto-organize, Convert format etc.
=> fixed in 2807
- CUE file is updated during auto-organize
- converting original file converts the original file as whole and updates CUE, converting to a new location creates individual file splits (according to CUE)
Should that issue be reopened?
Want a dark skin for MM5? This is the one that works best for me .. elegant, compact & clear.
