Re: [slim] Cue Sheet Problems

2007-11-18 Thread miklorsmith

Update - in 6.3.1 if I first add the cuesheet to the playlist, then
clear it, it's recognized from then on in Slimserver and in the SB. 
Very weird.

Re: [slim] Cue Sheet Problems

2007-11-16 Thread miklorsmith

I'm not a computer programmer, I looked at the metaflac info on the flac
website.  I'm sure it's very helpful to the technical folks but not me.

Even if I could figure it out I doubt I'd want to go back through the
1,000 albums I have ripped on my drive.

For whatever reason, now even the 6.3.1 build that has worked in the
past doesn't work.

Super lame.

Re: [slim] Cue Sheet Problems

2007-11-14 Thread jjanis

Hi Andy,
Upon your suggestion played around a bit with the embedded tags.
Thanks - that was a good suggestion!
In most cases I got the embedded tags in good accord with the external
.cue sheet. Got both the "COMPOSER" and "CONDUCTOR" fields in, Foobar
interpreting them correctly.
Working on this found I am very much missing a tool where I could edit
both the embedded tags and the external .cue sheet simultaneously. Not
touching the indexes, just the composer, performer, title, etc. fields.
Should be possible...
Now I had to use metaflac - TagScanner/MediaMonkey - Notepad - Foobar
to achieve what I want. And even with this combo I currently haven't
figured out how to tag/cue properly a disc where several
composers/performers are represented.  
Will be experimenting a bit more in the evening...

BR,
JJanis

Using either the flac '--cuesheet' option, or the metaflac
'--import-cuesheet-from' option.

My CUE sheets are embedded in the FLAC. The tags are in the FLAC as Vorbis
comments. Have you tried this approach?

Re: [slim] Cue Sheet Problems

2007-11-09 Thread jjanis

Andy,
I'm also interested in this. I am encoding to flac/cue, and the
standard fields (like, title and performer) are working just fine. SS
(6.5.4) is splitting the .flac by .cue sheet, and gets also the song
names right & allow jumps back/ahead, etc.

However I have had no luck with the additional "Conductor" and
"Composer" fields, despite installing CustomScan/CustomBrowse. These
plugins work fine with tagged individual song files (Foobar or
TagScanner), yet completely ignore the "Conductor" & "Composer" fields
in the .cue sheet.

Have you solved this?

I encode to .wav, save those files as backups to an external drive. 
Server files get converted to .flac and I manually change the .cue
files to find .flac instead of .wav.

Neither .wav nor .flac cues work.

Why not encode to FLAC and embed the CUEsheet? That's what I do, and it
works flawlessly, with the benefit of much more flexible tagging.

[slim] Cue Sheet Problems

2007-11-08 Thread miklorsmith

I've been using Exact Audio Copy to create continuous .wav files with
.cue cutters for years.  This works great but the last Slimserver build
that works flawlessly is 6.3.1, including the beta 7.0.

The problem has varied over time, currently the track numbers are
available through the computer interface but not through the SB itself.
Choosing that directory reveals "Empty" for contents instead of track
information.

I've searched the FAQ and don't find an answer here.  What's the magic?
