Questions / MusicBee Can't scan folder

I get this error when trying to scan folders for new files. "Thu 8 10 23 11:04:54 AM - 10.0.19045.0 - 3.5.8384.15210D - System.IO.IOException: Invalid Signature.

I get this error when monitoring the folder at start up. "Monitored folders - file scan failed: Invalid Signature."

I can go in and select one artist at a time with multiple albums in their folder and they import. Is there a limit to the size, amount of folders, or number of files that can be imported?

There are 1093 artists and 59,230 files in a 244GB data base.

Questions / Sort By Album Group By Genre.

« on: November 15, 2022, 04:06:23 PM »

Hello,
Am I wrong in thinking that when sorting in a "Music" tab and by "Album" and the grouping by "Genre" that the entire album should show up in the search?

I realize that each song can have a different genre and this could lead to repeat results.

What I am doing and for the most part Musicbee has been very helpful and with a fingerprinting program is to clean up a database of music for a friend.

So I may be asking more of Musicbee than it was intended for. If so I apologize.

MusicBee Wishlist / Add Delete in Context menu

« on: November 14, 2022, 07:46:17 PM »

Hello,

Thank you for adding the ability to have the tag editor in the main panel in music explorer.

IF possible and you have time could add a delete option to the context menu in "Music Explorer" just like under the "Music" tab.

MusicBee Wishlist / Tag Editor

« on: November 10, 2022, 10:18:57 PM »

First off, thank you for writing such a useful and easy-to-use program.

In the music tab in the main panel, when pressing shift+enter, the tag editor shows up at the bottom of the main panel.
If I change the tab from Music to Music Explorer, the tag editor pops out in a separate window.

Is it possible to have the tag editor at the bottom of the main panel all the time?
Thank  you.

EDIT: I took a couple of screen shots. To help explain. Shot one is how I like to have it all the time. Shot Two is what happens when switching the tab from Music to Music Explorer. Notice the red highlights at the top and bottom of the shots.
