Hello, What am i missing? I added a few files as a test. Some of these files contain the genre "Jazz Saxophone". However i can not get mp3tag to find the tags. My Genre tags are set up as; Jazz; Jazz Saxophone; Classic Covers. I feel sure that i am missing something, but have read the help files an…

You should install the 64 bit version of Mp3tag if not already done to have enough memory for your amount of files. If you use the windows defender as Antivirus define an exception for mp3tag.exe.

[image] tomx2: correct Yes. That should work as expected. (the general rule in electronic data processing applies: create backups prior to such treatments, try it with sample files first)

Excellent advice as always, ohrenkino. Thanks to you and everyone else for their help with this. tom

FYI: First attempt (above) took a little over 4 hours before it failed. [photo_2023-10-14_15-26-55] Second attempt took 2 hours and 20 minutes before it failed. Unfortunately, looks like i'll need to make all my edits twice, splitting the files in two and loading each half (at over one hour load …

Thanks, I'll give it a try. I do have the 32 bit installed. Will mp3tag save my settings? If not, Any suggestion on how i can save my settings/layout/filters and apply to the different version?

Thanks! Now starting the process all over again. Hopefully it won't be as long a day as yesterday was!

Well, i'm beginning to think MP3Tag just can't handle large collections. Upgraded to 64 bit, same or nearly same issues. After 2.5 hours loading mp3tag is stuck, for additional 45 minutes, here.... [photo_2023-10-15_10-59-02] After over 9 hours yesterday and about 4 today, i'm back at square one.…

If MP3tag cannot read certain files, then if would be a good idea to check them for consistency. Honestly, going back to 2.88 will not solve that problem of problematic files.

[image] ohrenkino: %genre% HAS Saxophone AND %genre% HAS Jazz Understood. I am pretty meticulous about my files. They are "consistent", i believe. If i split the files in half they read fine, so i don't think not being able to read them is an issue. The older version read the same files for y…
