MediaMonkey get OGG-Tags wrong

NewUser · Post by **NewUser** » Fri Dec 26, 2003 3:03 pm

Hello,

i am new to MediaMonkey and have a problem with ogg-files.

MediaMonkey gets most of the tags wrong.
The artist and album tags are a mismatch of different tags.

Here is an example:
MediaMonkey:
Artist = 2003 Geräusch; Album = CD 1

WinAmp:
Artist = Die Ärzte; Album = Geräusch - CD 1

I used the newest ogg-encoder with the newest version of ExactAudioCopy to rip the cd. As you can see WinAmp is able to display the right tags.

Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance.

SirNight.

I would think that your ogg files don't actually have tags, but only MM and WinAmp both try to guess the metadata by looking at the filename - this would explain the difference in the values. You can check the file with some editor in order to see whether there is something like 'ARTIST=...', 'ALBUM=...'.

In case you would really think there's something wrong in MM, you can send me some smaller file that isn't properly parsed.
