tagging problem with musepack with current build

(1/1)

Hi, my previous post got locked as I forgot to mention that I experienced the problem with the official build as well.

I am really sorry if this has been covered or if i put this in the wrong place but I looked through the manual and searched the forums.

I have a Gigabeat F40 and recently installed Rockbox and it's awesome. My problem is that for all of my musepack files (.mpc), the tags don't show.

I have tried everything to get it to show up. I filled out ID3v1, ID3v2 and APEv2 but the problem remains. All my musepack files are under Untagged in Database and the info doesn't show up when I play the file.
 
I have experienced the problem using the most current official build and didn't apply any patches.

Thanks for your help.

I have a few albums in musepack and I haven't experienced that.  What app do you use for tagging?  Myself I either have EAC automatically get the tags from freedb or have foobar do it and I've never had that happen.

I presume that you have done either an 'Update now' or an 'Initialise now' since loading the tracks onto your player?

I also managed to find some useful threads using Search:

Looks like you should delete all tags except ApeV2 and try again

thanks for the response guys

bascule, I think you were right, I tried deleting everything except the apev2 tags on a few tracks and they finally showed up in the database. It's strange because I swore I tried what you suggested before and the tags weren't showing up, oh well.

thanks a lot for the help everyone!
