Thanks, I'll see what i come up with.

Also, I noticed the Lyrics? psudeo-tag is read/write in MSR, but is 'read only' in ASR.
Could you make it writeable in ASR as well , please?

Thanks for fixing the Lyrics? tag  

Actually in either one, it says it's being written too but no data is actually saved.
Would this be a limitation within MB as it's a database-only pseudo tag?

[boroda]

actually it doesnt work for msr and 'copy tag' either. maybe its recent change in mb api.

try to write 'lyrics' tag instead of 'lyrics?'.

Just started testing the new version.

- MSR preset doesn't handle escape sequences for special characters properly. Also they don't work via ASR command.

- Why is the target tag of the MSR preset "Temp 1" rather than "Tag 2"? It works via MSR command but not via ASR command, so they can't be used for hotkeys.

[boroda]

for 1: will check this, but could you give me some example?

for 2: msr preset is just a service template for msr command. unfortunately the way i've implemented asr doesnt allow to hide it in asr, but i'll write a comment in it that its a service preset. use msr command to create meaningful msr presets, then tick them for autoapplying and/or assign hotkeys to them in asr. its not very intuitive, but its so for historical reasons (msr has been created as asr extension after several years of asr existance).

Replace # and * with certain numbers with or without regex enabled.

Yes, I know. What I'm saying is the target tag needs to be changed to "Tag 2" for those msr preset to be used as an ASR hotkey command.

The tag backup feature works up to about 100,000 tracks. If the library is larger than that, it doesn't work. Is it possible to support more tracks?

I was doing smaller batches and everything went fine for a while. Then tried about 150 files and got an error on the copy command. But I keep getting a message that I can't copy the error. So here are screenshots:

Update: I just had it happen with only 14 tracks. I think you're on to something with the artwork, because when I looked they had a 16MB artwork attached. Seems excessively large, lol. At the same time I don't know why even that size would overload my computer.

Recently, additional Tagging and Reporting Tools has been reporting an error in invocation when enabled in Preferences. I uninstalled the plugin and tried to download again, perhaps the latest version, from the plugin page, only to be faced with a Malicious Site, usually by ad.fly. Can anyone fix this please?

Are you certain you've installed the plugin correctly? The dll goes in MusicBee\Plugins while the ARS Presets goes in MusicBee\AppData.

Where/when are you seeing the 'malicious site' warning? The plugin should be downloaded from MediaFire and I've never see a warning such as that. I just did it now and saw no warning.

@boroda-

Using 5.0.7025 I just had an instance of the columns not opening to size correctly in ASR preview. I closed ASR and opened it again and it was fine.

I just clicked on the appropriate entry in the plugins section and then on the mediafire link to download. This is the only plugin directing me to ad.fly.  I tried some others and they do not direct me to any other site.

Thanks for your help anyway.

I've also had problem with that specific link sending me to a spammy page. The ones in this thread do not, not sure why the difference.

(I don't have access to see all the details, but on mouseover the download button shows something with "fainbory.com", which google shows a bunch of porn links for. O_O)


Update: it turns out the link on the wiki had the same problem. I've removed that one and pm'd boroda about the add-ons page.

I was just asking. If the support requires lots of efforts, feel free to disregard the request.

Another issue: Copy/paste selected tags command doesn't work for any file properties. And can you add <Path> & <Filename> too? Currently it only supports <URL> (though it's not working now), so the user has to use virtual tags for those.
