Plugins / Re: Additional Tagging & Reporting Tools

Thanks @frankz - tried that and it looked OK, but it did show me that there is a file called "mb_TagTools.Settings.xml" in the AppData folder. Deleted that file,moved the entry for tagtools from the musicbee3settings.ini file, and deleted the mb_tagtools.dll in Plugins. Then restarted musicbee and re-added the plugin from the zip file and all is working again - I can only assume a corrupt XML file. Thanks all for the help, and I hope my solution can help others in future.

Thanks for the response @phred.

Just to be sure, I redownloaded the latest ZIP file, and unpacked it to the Plugins folder under my portable Musicbee install. I know it's the correct one as I also added the Discordbee plugin to the same folder, and that works. I then went into my AnitVirus and excluded the entire Musicbee install folder to ensure that won't affect it.

I have the same symptoms sadly - I can see that mb_tagtools is in the Plugins tab on the Preferences dialog, but it is marked as disabled. When I try to enable it, it fails to start as explained before.

One more thing I just tried - I deleted the tagtools files from the Plugins folder, opened Musicbee to ensure it was gone in the Plugins dialog, and then used the "Add plugin" button to reinstall from the ZIP I downloaded today. It re-added the mb_tagtools entry on the dialog, and then immediately failed in the same way when trying to enable it.

I'm not sure I can think of anything else to try.

Let's hope he's OK...

On another bug note - I'm using the latest portable build of Musicbee (3.4.7764) and every time I try to enable the latest version of mb_tagtools  I get an error telling me: "Unable to initialise plugin: mb_TagTools.dll Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation." - anyone know how to get round this and get the tools working again? I miss the support it gives!

Hi Steven,

Will the 3.1 API work with a 3.2 install, or should I wait for a new API?

Thanks!

Much appreciated!

I've been seeing something odd with the latest update - I can enable the plugin on my laptop, but my portable install on a USB stick (which has exactly the same setup using 3.2.6645) won't let me enable the plugin:



Any thoughts?

Press "Ctrl-F" for the custom search box. Make sure the match dropdown is set to "all", and then enter the following rules:

- "Genre" "contains" <your genre>
- "Year" "is after" <start year>
- "Year" "is before" <end year>

Hope that helps!

Sorry about this - I just spotted another bug with this view.

If you minimise the MusicBee window and then maximise it, the view is entirely black except for any highlighted track. If you scroll it, it starts re-rendering.

Same happends if you maximize another windows over the top and then bring MusicBee back to the front.

Oh - and selecting a track by clicking on it once also doesn't seem to work properly for multi-disc albums - mostly the last row of tracks on the 1st disc won't highlight when I click on the once.
