"Lost" File Titles

Post by Acin »

Hi, Martin et al.,

I just downloaded 1.4.3 and have run into an unexpected bug. After importing my edited and newly-retitled Amadeus files into iTunes (8.2.1), I have been losing the new names I've assigned to them -- instead, they have reverted to the original file names they carried before I performed any editing on them.

This problem is occurring no matter whether I save them as mp4 or AIFF files; it doesn't seem to matter if I use the "save as" or "save a copy as" function in Amadeus Pro. Using the "export" command out of Amadeus Pro or "import" in iTunes makes no difference, either. I tried turning off the preference in iTunes ("keep iTunes music folder organized"), and that didn't help, either.

The files do appear to be properly renamed on my hard drive, and they open with the new name if I re-open them in Amadeus Pro -- the problem is trying to preserve that new name when I put it into iTunes.

Any strategies to fix this that you can suggest? Or is this just a bug? Or do you need more information?

Thanks!

The "name" displayed by iTunes is unrelated to the filename. It is
contained in the sound metadata, which you can access and edit by
clicking on the "Info" icon in the sound window. Regards,

Martin
