Re: Tagalicious Windows Beta

[Ben (TLAF)]

Some things we are looking to be tested

- The general working of the application
- Large music libraries
- Performance on multiple versions of Windows, especially XP

Thanks again, Ben

Here is the beta version of Tagalicious windows, it requires an
internet connection to use and has an expiry date of 3/4/11. Apart
from that it is currently completely free and open.

http://files.thelittleappfactory.com/tagalicious-windows/Tagalicious_Installer.msi

Please post back any feedback, bugs or comments on here and I will do
my best to comment on them and implement any changes that are
required.

N.B. Some things are out of our control such as the recognition of
songs, songs are recognised through a third party server and we do not

control what music goes onto this server. As such we are not looking
for lists of songs that work and do not work.

Thanks for your time,
Ben, TLAF (www.tlaf.com)

Info about me/my library:
~200 GB of music on a 0.5TB USB Drive
Much of my music is untagged or poorly tagged, poorly sorted, etc.
Some of my music had its tags/filenames ruined by iTunes "sorting."
Operating System: Windows 7

Zeroth attempt - oops, itunes wasn't open. Let's fix that.

First attempt to open Tagalicious after installing it pops up a window
asking me to register/buy the program and becomes unresponsive. After
a couple minutes it closed (I'm not even sure I told it to close.)

Second attempt, pops up same register/buy window. Busy mouse icon
over both the main Tagalicious window & the Register/buy now popup
(which is way up in the top right of the screen - awkward placement
IMO.) Busy icon still there after several minutes.
Ah, now it has my music library after ~3 minutes. During the time
while it was apparently loading my music, I couldn't do anything
(include click register or buy)
OK, program running. Bit confused about its interaction with certain
songs that I have duplicates of.
Example:
Copy #1 Madonna - What It Feels Like for a Girl - Original tags are
correct, new tags it REMOVES the album name/year, with no offered
replacement. Title, artist, and album art (added with new tags) are
correct with new tags
Copy #2 Madonna - What It Feels Like for a Girl - Original tags are
correct, new tags are also correct

In the side bar, where it shows Original Tag/New Tag info, there
appears to be no way to read the full text of a field which extends
past the width of the textbox/label provided: Example
for They Might Be Giants songs, I can only see:
They Might Be...
I see no way to see the full text via mouseover, selection, or making
the box larger.

I'm a little irked that it uses up tracks that I've "looked up" even
if I don't send any tag info to itunes. Anything that I click on uses
up a track! Oh well, trials a trial.

Successfully updated a poorly tagged version of They Might Be Giants -
Particle Man
Primary objective of program is pretty successful.
Successfully identified and tagged track01.cdda (I have a lot of these
types of things...) into Crystal Method -Trip Like I Do
Definitely successful.

Finally, my computer is pretty good but scrolling through the songs is
particularly slow. It isn't slow in itunes at the same time. It's a
bit better in details view than album art, I think, but still slow.
And even tabbing into/out of the program is slow when the program is
"thinking" about tags for a newly selected song. Is there a way to
keep the interface working when performing that task?

I'm afraid to try this out with my library on my Windows XP Laptop -
even though I know you guys want info about systems like that.

Anything else you want me to check out?

[Fernando escobar]

I just want to add on to what Sylverfyre said about the full text of
Songs/Albums...if you send the info to iTunes, you will send the
shortened version instead of the full name.

Using his example of "They Might Be Giants" once transferred the song
will appear in iTunes as "The Might Be..."

Operating system: Windows XP, SP3. Media Center Edition
Itunes 10.1.1.4

Instalation:
I open up instalation and it tells me I need to install .Net Framework
4.0.
All right, I do that.

After installing it, I install tagalicious. However, when I try to use
the application, it pops up with an error message saying I need to
instal .NetFramework 4.0

I've tried restarting, however it still doesn't work.

Installed ok. I had to get .Net 4.0 and i did that.

I tried to open it up and it opened up fine. When i clicked on File ->
reset tagged state. It gave me an error and spit out. This maybe
because I have no files listed or because I am installing 10.2 right
now though. I'll update when i finish installing 10.2

Couldn't do much because it asked for a serialkey, but one thing that
happened was that when I used the scroll bar to quickly move down my
music list, the display gets all fucked up. I took a screenshot to
show what I mean:

Fernando is right. I now have a song tagged with the artist "They
Might Be..." - that's just silly, especially since that isn't even a
particularly long name. There's song names I have that would be cut
in half or worse by this.
