I shouldn't have to mess up my database for that and waste my precious time. Please tell me why Rekordbox is even using id3v1 tags in the first place? They are ancient, and in most cases are truncated to 39 characters (not very useful for a Pulse!!! Hey buddy, can we have the list that this guy asked for 4 years ago at the beginning of the thread please ?!?! I'm talking about a list of what RB write to the tags and what it does NOT. Usually, the tags are marked inactive and left in the file.
TAGSCANNER SAFE SOFTWARE
Now, why is software supposed to ignore deprecated tags? Because it is common practice to leave the information in place to avoid dangerous rewrites of large media files. So, you'll probably tell me to delete the v1 tags, right? Well, here's where it really gets weird: I delete the tracks from the library, and then delete all id3v1 tags on the MP3s, then re-import them into the library and guess what's back? That's right, those id3v1 comments are back again. Rekordbox pulls 'BAR' into the library comment field, indicating that it pulls from that first (standard behavior is to ignore deprecated tags, BTW) If I look at the look at the file with a utility (dbpoweramp) it shows id3v2.3 comment tag of 'FOO' and and id3v1 comment tag of 'BAR'. aif and I have no issues with tags, but i've a cluster of 200+ MP3's that import or reload tags into the comment field incorrectly every.time. Okay, here's a weird one related to tagging and v2.0.3: I hope you guys take this into consideration, as tagging, adding custom cue points and organizing music takes a lot of time and work. If this is not possible because of design, Pioneer should really consider opening up its database / API so other applications can read the database files \ tags and or convert it. Its really irritating with all the proprietary databses.

Pioneer Rekordbox should always use ID3 and or other open formats at much as possible. That mean that all the hard work with tagging will be useless in Serato, Traktor or any other application that supports the open ID3 tags. Its pretty disappointing if Rekordbox only uses its proprietary DB to tag the music files. Hello, i have just started using Rekordbox with my new CDJ 2000 and DJM 900, I have a few questions about the tagging inside rekordbox and the database its generating.Ĭan we get any confirmation on what ID3 tags Rekordbox can read and what ID3 tags Rekordbox can write back to the music files? And or if its deleting any of the original tags form the music files?
