Which scenario?
- Not implemented? You code yourslelf (this is open source) or you pay me to code what you need. - Not possible? I let you answer me about how to make something possible when this is not possible, I don't have the answer on my side...

Hi Zen,
I found a problem when reading tags from Ogg Vorbis files. If the files have an "Album Artist" tag, MediaInfo returns the information in "Performer" field as "album artist / artist". But I would need these 2 value separated. It works correctly with MP3s, where the values are returned in fields "Performer" and "Album/Performer". This happens with all Ogg Vorbis files I have. I use foobar2000 or mp3tag to tag my files. Both programs read the tags correctly. Is this behavior intentional for some reason? Could you have a look at it please? If you need a sample file, please let me know. But it should be reproducible with any Ogg Vorbis file. Thanks! Edit: Also I think that to name the Artist field as Performer might be confusing. For example foobar2000 has a separate Performer field. I think that Artist field is meant to contain music author (Mozart, for example) and Performer would be the orchestra that actually plays it. It probably only matters for classical music, but why not make the field names consistent with other programs? Last edited by vlada; 21st July 2011 at 20:06. |

It was not intentional. Corrected, in next version.

"Artist" field is used for so many different people (as you said: this can be the performer, or the music autor), I try to separate and to precise roles when I can. Additionaly, Id3v2 has the same field for Artist/Performer (TPE1), and I must choose a name ;-). I currently don't agree to fill a different field depending of the genre (e.g. in "Artist" for U2 and "Performer" for the performer of a classical music.), I (and my users!) expect the same field in every case whatever is the genre, so currently "Performer" name seems to be the more logical. foobar2000 goal is to propose fields from the underlying format, MediaInfo goal is to display same field whatever is the underlying format. So... If you want a change in the mapping and/or naming, I need a proof this is better for everybody in any case (for pop music up to classical music, from Id3v1 to MP4 tags)

I think that using Artist and Album artist is very common and most people would expect these fields. Using different field names for different genres is certainly a bad idea.
I think that the track artist/performer should be stored in a field called "Artist". You might copy the value to "Performer" field if a different performer value is not stored in the tag. It is not important, it would just make MediaInfo more consistent with other programs, which all use "Artist" for this information. But of course the decision is up to you and your commercial partners. Btw. a funny thing is, that we have no good translation for "Artist" in Czech. We usually translate it as "interpret", which means performer. Last edited by vlada; 21st July 2011 at 21:30. |

I was using "Artist" previously, it was changed due to some requests from other people, people do not agree at 100% on the the naming, so currently I think I keep this field name as is.

Initial version of the installer (0.7.47.0) was wrong, updated version (0.7.47.1) is OK. Try download the installer from the official website so you are sure you have the updated version.

Currently, you are the only one complaining about this. So I wait for other people complaining about the same problem before I look at it more seriously (I don't have the time nor the wish to debug for free something on only one machine).

Thanks, Zenitram, that worked.
And it is not my "global instability of your Windows installation"... Atak Snajpera (klite codec) makes a good and simple gui. It also loads faster. :] Last edited by firebo14; 31st July 2011 at 04:12. |

For info, you can select "Text view" as default and remove menu bar in preferences screen, then you have nearly the same GUI than Atak Snajpera one.
