Note: Occasionally your Antivirus program may mistakenly detect "malware" (virus, trojan, worm, etc.) in some of the files here.
This is called a "false-positive" and the files are actually innocent (clean). It's a failure in your specific Antivirus software.
In case you encounter such problems, goto http://www.virustotal.com/ and check the file again with multiple Antivirus engines!
And take care with results like "suspicious", "generic" or "packed". Those are *not* real hits, they are just wild speculation...

Hi Mulder, hab mir Dein Tool nun mal angesehen und finde es richtig gut. Allerdings habe ich beim ersten Start die Installation der Shellextension verneint. Nun suche ich vergeblich in den Optionen nach einer Möglichkeit sie zu aktivieren. Hab ich Tomaten auf den Augen oder kannst Du mir nen Tipp geben :wink3: ?

Quoted from "g-force"

Und die Bollon-Tooltips deaktivieren hier die meisten mit nLite - deswegen schwer zu finden. :declare:

Quoted from "Dimpel"

Hi,

bräuchte für das Prg. eine ausführliche Beschreibung.

Ohne den laufenden Changelog durchzublättern (dann noch in englisch ), einfach schlich was das Prg. alles kann.

1. Batchmodus

2. Mehrere CPU Kerne tauglich

3. ID3Tag Original Übernahme falls MP3 nochmals neu Reencodet werden muss

4. wer hat es geschrieben

5. Normalisierer abwärtskompatibel also zu Laute Tracks runtergeregelt werden kann.

6. Vista tauglich 32bit sowie 64bit und XP 64bit

Die ersten 3 Punkte scheint er zu können die letzten 3 hätte ich doch noch gerne gewusst.

Gruß Dimpel

Quoted from "djrara"

Gute Arbeit, MuldeR!

Ich habe mich vor einiger Zeit selbst an einem ähnlichen Tool versucht (via AutoIt), es ist aber lange nicht so gut geworden! Btw: womit hast Du es geschrieben?

Quoted from "Dimpel"

beschränkt die Normalisierung auf den höchsten Sample innerhalb eines Tracks ?

Quoted from "Dimpel"

oder ist auch eine Klangverdichtung ähnlich die Funktion vom Audiograbber integriert ?

Quoted from "Dimpel"

Wenn nicht ist es möglich sowas einzubauen ?

Quoted from "Huberer"

Hallo Mulder,

zuerst vielen Dank für deine Arbeit und muss ich sagen es gefällt mir sehr. Vor allem weil es ja portable ist (kommt mir zumindest so vor).
Muss mir in nächster Zeit alle meine CD's auf Festplatte bringen und werde daher dein Proggy verwenden.
Nur eine Frage bzw. ein Wunsch:
Ist es von deiner Seite aus geplant auch das FLAC-Format einzubinden bzw. wäre es möglich FLAC mit zu integrieren?

Danke nochmals
Huberer

Quoted from "oddy"

Ich benutze eigentlich keine Anführungszeichen, wenn dann habe ich sie beim Abruf der CDDB Datenbank übersehen. Sie werden bei mir durch 2 Apostroph ersetzt. Evtl. werde ich sie nun aber in Zukunft weglassen. Sie kommen ja nicht so oft vor, nur bei Remixen, wie z.B. 12'' Remix.

Quoted from "oddy"

Gerade ist mir noch etwas aufgefallen. Beim Konvertieren meiner FLAC Dateien in mp3, übernimmt LameXP nicht die richtige Tracknummer. Die Tracknummern werden nach der alphabetischen Reihenfolge der Dateien vergeben und nicht nach der im Tag enthaltenen. Die Tracknummern im Tag der FLAC die kleiner 10 sind, haben bei mir eine führende 0, also 01, 02... Das sollte denke ich aber kein Problem sein.
Meine Dateien sehen folgendermaßen aus:
<Artist> - <Tracktitel>, die Tags sind ausgefüllt und unter LameXP ist ein Haken vor 'Meta Daten in Dateien schreiben'. Sollte also soweit alles richtig sein.

Quoted from "oddy"

Ok, nachdem ich die Titel auf die Dropbox gezogen habe, werden sie in der Liste alphabetisch geordnet. Ich wußte noch nicht, dass die Reihenfolge veränderbar ist.

Quoted from "oddy"

Nachdem die Tracknummer nicht ausgelesen wird, wie ist es dann gedacht, die Tracknummern einer CD zu übernehmen?

Quoted from "oddy"

Man könnte zum Dateinamen die Tracknummer voranstellen, was bei meiner Vorgehensweise leider nicht der Fall ist.

Quoted from "oddy"

D.h. mir bleibt nur die Möglichkeit, mit mp3tag die Tracknummer auszulesen und die Dateien in der Quellansicht zu sortieren oder hast du evtl. eine andere Lösung?

Quoted from "oddy"

Ok, hab ich nun auch gefunden. Die Tracknummer wird zwar ausgelesen aber halt leider nicht geschrieben. Da muß ich dann die Nummern per Hand ändern.
