Portable Devices / Re: Musicbee / Poweramp genre tag separators

« on: April 24, 2020, 05:32:32 PM »

Just an FYI the semicolon is a display and entry contrivance / shortcut.  If you look in the tag inspector, there are actually multiple GENRE tags for files, not one separated by anything.

I use PowerAmp, and PowerAmp does read the multiple genre tags. It splits them out into individual genres in your library displays them in tags with a colon. 

In reality, though, these are both ways to display what are actually multiple genre tags in one line.

Yes. A look into tag inspector is the answer, my fault.
But BTW, Poweramp takes only first genre. I. E. Soundgarden - Blackhole sun, I tagged with Grunge and Alternative rock. But only Grunge is displayed in Poweramp.

Hi community,
I sync WiFi between MB <> Poweramp. Poweramp support multiple genre, but I don't know, how I have to setup separators within. How does MB separates multiple genres?

Perhaps you should also check in with GMMP's forum to see if this is an error on the GMMP side. And to make sure it can read the ratings that MB sends over.

I can sync to phone, when I choose Poweramp and when I scan with Gonemad, Gonemad reads ratings. But when I choose Gonemad for sync I get an error.

Hi all
Just an update i test the new version and all went fine for sync with android 10 and external sdcard.
Just now a bug with gmmp rating sync :  sendStats: Unable to retrieve stats for player: 1

Have the same error on Huawei P30 with Android 10.
Can't sync with Gonemad 2.2.23. I can't do playlist sync also, only full sync. If I try it shows no playlists, only red server not running error, but full sync works.
With Poweramp it's fine. I've also the following issue. When I create an autoplaylist, limit tracks, random list, play or rate one of this songs in poweramp and sync back to musicbee, it shows that files not match. But files exist on Android and within Musicbee library.

the point is usually the timestamps are expressed as seconds from 1970 but in some cases they are being expressed as milliseconds from 1970

Yes. Seems so. But not a big thing, like I said, as long as playcount syncs correctly. Thanks for good work!

Normally the GoneMad values are expressed as seconds. Because the value is in milliseconds it is overflowing when converted to a windows date/time so you get stupid values for the date

That's what GoneMad dev wrote Back:

correct, gmmp stores anything time related in milliseconds since that works best with the java Date class:

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/Date.html#Date-long-

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/Date.html#setTime-long-

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/Date.html#getTime--

edit: lastPlayed, dateAdded, and dateUpdated(gmmp 3.0 alpha) are all in milliseconds. I think thats the only time related fields that backup/restore deal with

The number is 1000 x too large ie. it appears to be milliseconds rather than seconds. I suggest you check with the GoneMad developer if he has changed anything intentionally

Hi Steven.
Did it and get this answer by GoneMad dev.

That date is the equivalent to 0 in "computer time" which is the default value in gmmp for songs not ever played. Musicbee should be ignoring 0s for last played when syncing

edit: looking further, when updating the last played time its using the current time

values.put(DBConstants.TRACK_LAST_PLAYED, new Date().getTime());
The other call that updates the field in the database wont update it back to 0 either:

if (lastPlayed != 0)
    values.put(DBConstants.TRACK_LAST_PLAYED, lastPlayed);
So the only way it could be 0 in the database would be if was never played. I dont speak what appears to be german, so i dont know all the fields in that screenshot.. but im guessing the column with all the 1s is playcount? I guess theoretically the playcount could have been synced back to gmmp with a 0 last played, so the restore updated the playcount but not the last played.

If you can find a way to reproduce this i can certainly look into it more

My GoneMad is working fine. Which version are you using?

Mine works also fine, but from time to time, some songs have wrong last played date.
I'm using GoneMad 2.2.21.

Got another one with wrong date. Played today.
https://i.ibb.co/3rxVQcp/002.jpg

That is the date that computer chip clocks start from when calculating the current date and time.
Can't see it being an issue with MB as it must get that info from your PC's system clock...

Thanks for answer. Any Idea how to fix it?

Hi Steven,
I got a little issue. Not a big thing, but maybe interesting. Yesterday or day before, I don't know exactly, I listened to a song. After syncing, last played shows year 1972. But I don't believe that I listened in 1972   It's the second time, that this happened. Happened a few weeks before with another song. Stats.xml shows <LastPlayed>1568399940373</LastPlayed>.

if you are referring to the "History" tab, then no, that only records tracks played directly in musicbee

Hi Steven,
it's curious, but songs I played definitely with my phone appear in "History tab". But not all by the way
