Can't Cancel Operation

Hi Dale

Thanks for your reply

The Genre and Language should be set up to Apply When Needed this way if you Don't Need To Change Anything In These Two You Don't Have To.

In My Case I have (6) six different languages and I understand that your product sell world wide so I believe this one is important.


Thanks again

Agree and have reported it. Hopefully they can get it changed before the next release.

I hope this clears it up?

OK. I can't argue this one now that I understand what you are talking about. I have also run into this problem with selecting a group and having it change the Genre. All of mine are listed as English so I don't have that problem. I'll bring this one up to MTU.

The reason I'm asking is because, if you're editing a large amount of files and don't need to edit the Language and Genre fields it becomes very time consuming in grouping these fields to write the changes one group at a time.

If the option to bypass these fiels where available then you can process the entire batch with no additional work one shot.

Is this possible now?

Thank You

If you leave them blank then they won't be changed. That goes for the rest of the fields as well.

Thanks for the reply, but that was not the case in Hoster 4.6 is this available in the current version?

The fact is that this has not been corrected at all as of today, what has been done is a little message put at the lower right hand corner written in Red stating;

Note: Language and Genre will be set if they are not blank, Just the statment and not the option was done.

You can't blank the two fields in question here and there are no options to accomplish this at All.

Why was I told it was done in Version 4.10 4.11 when in reality it was Never Done at all, and then closed the thread, after many post pursuing this much needed issue to be improved?

What is going on here? I'm I doing something wrong or is there a setting I have to set to make this possible.

Thank You

Joe, I am trying to understand your problem, but I can't.
You can select any number of songs in the multiple edit screen and providing you leave genre & language fields blank (or any of the other perimeters Blank) then version 4.11 doesn't change those fields. If you do choose to change language and leave duet fields and all other fields blank then it will only change language on the chosen fields.

That's how it works on the testing I've done. What exactly are you trying to change without changing any thing else ?

Roy.

Joe if you use the Select Multiple button (so you can select more than one song to edit), select the group you want and you will see that all fields (including language and genre) show nothing in them.
If at that point you add anything in any of the fields it will change that field only for all of the selected files when you click Apply. All the rest stay what they were.
This does not apply to the Select Single button since in single all current information is entered in the fields.
So you see this was fixed because it would not do that in 4.06.

[Joe Nieves]

Ok, I see now how this works and the confusing part is that the Note did not indicate that in order for this option to activate you need to select more the one file.

If the cursor is on one file you'll see the two fields populated with their corresponding data, so I guess you're able to call up a DiscID and edit all it's tracks one at a time or if you select as a group then that feature will be automatically activated, did I get this correct?

Thank you for helping me to understand this feature.

One thing though it would have been easier if a small paragraph was noted.

"you need to select more then one file to activate this feature".

Thanks again.

Joe...

ps What about Language I need "Hindi" added I ask about this I believe two years ago.

[ddouglass]

That I don't know about.

[Joe Nieves]

Thanks ddouglass

Any word on the language field I need to add "Hindi" to the list.
