I believe this may have been an issue with genpuid < 1.3. I've run genpuid 1.4 (Linux) against mp3 files that include extensive tags and never experienced an issue.
No idea though how you'd check the metadata other than manually loading some files and checking the tags against the backups. If I were you I'd hit Ctrl-C to terminate the analysis and experiment on two or three mp3 albums copied somewhere for this purpose. -- audiomuze *'Linux finally gets a great audio tagger' (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/linux-finally-gets-a-great-audio-tagger.html): 'puddletag' (http://puddletag.sourceforge.net/)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ audiomuze's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33613 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84338 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
