Journal Journal: now playing ... (2nd attempt) 1
- attempt to post this failed. Reported error at SourceForge.
- attempt seemed successful, but entry not found in "My Journal", perhaps because I entered Journal Topic as "Music" instead of "User Journal". I wonder where that submission went.
- current attempt, with Journal Topic as "User Journal"
I haven't added a Journal entry in months, so here's a useless one. I've never specified the "Journal Topic" as anything but the default ("User Journal"), so I don't know where this is going to come out.
~/shared/Miles Davis/[1975] Get Up With It/Miles Davis - Get Up With It disc 1 - 04 - Rated X.ogg
- ARTIST=Miles Davis
- TITLE=Rated X
- ALBUM=Get Up With It - Disc 1
- GENRE=Jazz+Funk
- YEAR=2000
- TRACK=4
- ORGANIZATION=Hemisphere Teledildonics, Inc.
The "TRACK" tag is incorrect; in the Ogg Vorbis comment header spec recommendations it's called TRACKNUMBER, which is what WinAMP looks for (the "Track:" field is blank when I view properties in WinAMP). I need to report this to Illustrate, who make dbPowerAMP, the Windows app I use to rip CDs.
The "ORGANIZATION" (sic) tag is my own. Vorbis lets you make any tag you like, text strings only. I've entered tags for "LYRICS" and "URL". People have contacted me trying to figure out how to play
"YEAR" according to the Vorbis spec is intended to for year of recording issue, not of the performance itself.
The ID3v1 "GENRE" list is famously inadequate.
