G’day Ken,

 

Unfortunately we don’t have a date, as we’re busy with our future video applications.

 

I would hazard a guess and say that it would be in the next Switch revision (<6months)

 

The software game can be unpredictable

 

Cheers

Hi Michael

Many thanks for your effort and reply, will look forward to that revision (sooner than later I hope); I'm sure that many other people who have purchased Switch will find themselves in the same predicament,

In the mean time do you know of any other software that will help me convert Bit Rates (loads of MP3 files) and Tag ID's simililar to the MP3 sample I sent Nik?

Best Regards

Ken

Hello Wolf,

 

have just spoken to Nik and your issue has indeed been added to our bug tracking application. Apologies he didn’t respond to you.

 

Cheers M

Hi M

Many thanks for all your help and time, do you have any date when this bug will be fixed and when it will be included in a 'Switch' revision?

Regards and thanks

Hello,

 

So your saying that the process is stripping off

 

artist

album year

track num

?

 

1 – I have just converted three 128bit mp3’s to 192bit mp3’s and all fields carried over – what OS are you using?

 

2 – Please detail your exact process so I can try and replicate it

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

I sent the Mp3 file to NCH technical support; just received a reply from them, as follows:-

Quote

"It is because Switch do not use ID3v2 tag if ID3v1 is disabled. We will fix this and release new version after testing. Please use this workaround: Open your source file with Winamp, then open file properties and use button copy ID3v2 tag to ID3v1.

End of Quote.

I told NCH that I had hundreds of filres to convert, and their workaround was not practical. Also asked them when new release od Switch fixing this bug would be issued. To date no date given.

Regards

Running Switch Plus 1.42; when converting Mp3 to Mp3 file bit rates the tag information from the original file is lost. Example on the original file Tag info shows:-artist-album-year-track number-file type-duration-bit rate-size.

After conversion all that is shown is:- duration-file type-bit rate-protect-size.

How do I set up Switch Plus 1.42 to retaining all the Tag ID's from the original MP3 files afterconverting the bit rates?

Can anybody help (please), this is driving me round the bend.
