What I mean is that seeing a PUID tag added is *evidence* that genpuid successfully retrieved matched your locally generated fingerprint and -retrieved- (versus locally generated) the track's analysis tag. I know it's not used to do anything meaningful, but aside from picking through log files, looking to see if a PUID tag was added tells you that the track's analysis was downloaded. That's all.

If you check my first post in this thread I reported the same issue. Genpuid on Windows works fine, however. May not be an option for you but it is for others who have a Windows machine at their disposal. Multithreading is a huge time saver--I have a quad core Xeon chewing through 4 separate instances of genpuid simultaneously. -- bookemdano ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bookemdano's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34640 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84338 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
