This error usually means MusicBee can't access the hardware you have selected to play through.
Check your settings here and make sure you have selected a valid device:

Edit > Edit Preferences > Player > Audio Player

And maybe also the Sound settings in the Windows control panel to make sure there's nothing weird going on there, like a different program having exclusive WASAPI control of your device.
Sorry, I didn't realize you had replied to me until now lol. But the issue is still there. As someone else had explained, when I was on my W10 system, when I downloaded songs on there, it seemed to work fine, but since I'm on W11 now, when I download a song, it doesn't play. It works fine on foobar, and maybe even vlc.

Questions / Re: Sort artist and sort album artist fields

Ok, so if I understand it right, it's normal that when a sort artist field is gray in MB, it's empty in GMMP after syncing ?

yes.

I guess I'll have to set these fields manually

you'll have to set them, but only for tags, which you want to sort in some way other than the default.

foremost, i apologize for my recent mistake: i've uploaded a new plugin version some days ago (and deleted the previous version both from the server and from my PC), which i thought was stable, but it turned out to be very buggy. so, i've had to re-upload the most recent version i could find, which was more or less stable. excuse me. all i can do now is advise you to try one of the very old, stable versions.

for example, you can try this version from 06/26/2023:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/cwwtzg1bmy532j6/mb_TagTools_2023-06-26.zip/file

it's stable, but very old.

also, you can try this recent version from 11/04/2023 (but only if you use win 10/11 (edited: i saw that you are on win 11) and screen dpi at 100%):

https://www.mediafire.com/file/h2t08o9562efboi/mb_TagTools_latest.zip/file

i'll upload a new, fixed, stable, and greatly improved version in a few days. maybe in a couple of weeks.

but maybe you are using the stable version (it depends on when you downloaded it).

-------------

about your issues:

1. seems to be a bug. i'll check this out. also, maybe it's a bug, which has been fixed already.

2. saving grouping fields to tags is disabled intentionally, just because all grouping fields are already some MB tags. why do you want to save grouping fields as tags?

3. there have been many plugin versions that exposed different LR behaviors (btw, no ALR has been available for a long time; it's been merged with LR. which plugin version are you using?). but i'm doubtful that the version you are using saves some "individual calculated tags." all i can suggest is that recent plugin versions take into account the tags of displayed tracks only (they may be filtered somehow, and you may see not all tracks of your library in the current view) for displaying/exporting LR reports, but all tracks, which have the same grouping tags as the currently displayed tracks for saving functions. this is quite different (and reasonable) behavior.

if you want to experience the same LR behavior for displayed reports and saved functions, don't filter displayed track list (e.g. don't generate reports for playlists, only for entire library).

---------------------

EDIT:

you might want to try the following latest version if you are mostly interested in LR. this version must be stable, but it's incomplete.
don't use the following commands with this version: MSR, both re-encode tag commands and tag history.
swap tags, save last skipped date dialog, and both settings windows may look ugly, but they must work.

One more thing, is it possible to use something else than a semi colon as separator for multiple artists ?
No. This has been discussed many times before and the developer has said he has no intention of changing this.

Plugins / Re: Additional Tagging & Reporting Tools
Last post by Batmang on December 03, 2023, 10:52:36 PM   |  Started by boroda
Hello
I'm having 3 problems with the plugin, both with the Library Reports tool. 2 & 3 may well be user error!

Firstly, with the "Save [field] to [tag]" settings. When I set a tag to save to, it is not saved as part of the auto report, returning to <NULL>. This applies even if I just close the Library Report tool, and if I restart MusicBee.

Secondly, I used to use several <Grouping> fields to calculate an average value, and write that to a tag for every track in that group.
Sadly, with the current system, that no longer works - a specific tag has to be chosen to calculate an average, rather than using the groupings.

Finally, even when using groupings, when writing tags, it appears to calculate using the individual tag rather than the results from the grouping - which are displayed properly on the preview settings.

Any help would be appreciated.

Plugins / Re: UPnP/ DLNA device support
Last post by chinchin on December 03, 2023, 10:33:41 PM   |  Started by Steven
This plugin works for me but not completly. Not sure if this is normal behaviour or not:

When installed and activated I can manually (on my PC) initialize playback on the DLNA Client (a Onkyo AVR) by selecting it as the playback device. The only control that I have with my AVR is play and pause in this case.
The problem is, the other way around doesn't work: the "Server" is not found by the AVR and I can't browser the library, although this option is enabled in the plugin.

Anyone familiar with this problem?
