Audition not saving Metadata correctly

I'm seeing two problems with how Audition CS6 (version 5) saves metadata:
Problem 1:
After saving a file as a WAV file when you view that file in Windows Explorer many of the metadata tags have the last character truncated.  The only way that I have found to solve the problem is to add a trailing space on each fields entry.  In fact if you change the Recording Date to say "2012" the date won't show up at all in Windows Explorer, but if you save it as "2012 " it shows correctly.
Problem 2:
If I open a WAV file to save it back out as an MP3 - it doesn't matter if I do a batch process or one file it is the same - all the metadata is lost (YES, I have the "Include markers and other metadata" box checked).  I follow these steps.. Open the Wav file>Click "Save as">set Format Settings to MP3>check the include markers>click OK.  At this point if you look at the resulting mp3 file in windows explorer you will see that no metadata is present, but if you still have the file open in Audition it appears that all of the metadata is there - you can even try changing a value and saving again, but Windows explorer still shows no data.  If you completely close the file in Audition and then reopen the mp3 file in audition, you will see that there is NO metadata there either.  At this point you can then repopulate the data in audition and save the file and then it will show the metadata when viewed with Windows Explorer.    VERY Annoying!!
Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug in Audition... It sure looks like a bug to me!!

Okay, well I just checked this out in Windows 7, 64bit. If there were going to be problems, this is where I'd expect them to be - and there simply aren't any - it works absolutely fine. If you don't put the metadata in a fields absolutely correctly, you get a ! at the end of the line, and all bets are off at that stage. And in the date format, that puts the year in first, then the month and then the date (yyyy-mm-dd). So if you try to put too many figures at the end, then yes I'd expect them to get truncated. But everything I put in my test file showed up fine, and correctly, in Windows Explorer.

I checked this one out too, and once again didn't get the result you did. I saved a load of ID3 tag information in the same file that I used above, and saved two versions of it - one as a wav, and one as an MP3. Both saved the metadata correctly. Then I re-opened the wav file and resaved it again as another MP3, this time with a different file name - didn't touch the metadata at all. When I checked the new MP3, all the metadata was there, just as it was previously.
So I don't know what you are doing (or which OS you are using either, come to that), but here it works fine. The previous complaint about MP3 related to indicated time with VBR saves, incidentally - not metadata at all.

  • Adobe Audition not saving Meta Data

    I'm trying to save file information within an mp3 or wav file for our broadcast software (AudioVault) to read it and the information does not save.
    We use versions 1.5 and Version 3 and they both exhibit the same behavior.
    I have followed the info below but it doesn't work.
    The File Info command opens a dialog box in which you can see and add metadata—descriptive information that a computer can process and search—about the open audio file. For example, metadata can include history, loop, and Broadcast Wave information.
    For audio files in WAV, mp3, or CEL format, you can use the File > XMP Info command to add XMP metadata. This extensive metadata can be shared across databases, file formats, and platforms. (See Add or edit XMP metadata.)
    1. In Edit View, choose File > File Info.
    2. Click the tabs at the top of the dialog box to navigate between different sets of properties.
    3. Set properties as desired, and click OK.
    To preserve file information when you save files, select Save Extra Non‑Audio Information in the Save dialog box.
    It is not saving the start and end date. Here's what I'm doing. Open mp3 file. File-File Info, toggle text field names to Radio Industry.
    Fill out Description, Advertiser, start date, end date, click ok. click file, save as (clicking save extra audio infomation)
    now close the file and reopen it and the start and end date are gone. Ideas?

    After talking with BE I discovered that the following procedure will save
    the
    meta data providing it is saved in a WAV format (mp3 doesn't work.)
    Open your mixdown in the waveform view.
    Hit ctrl P and the wave properties window will appear.
    Fill out title, artist. Cut number, category and date.
    When you save as make sure save extra non-audio info is checked
    Then in the dropdown save as type choose WAV windows pcm.
    Your completed file can now be dropped into an AV import folder that should
    transfer
    Into the system with all the information in their proper fields.

  • Z68S G43 G3) B4 fluctuating its overclock, not saving profiles correct?

    I have this board clock to 4.6ghz and the setting is saying but the clock speed is not.  When I look at CPUZ it clocks itself down to as low as 1500hmz and fluctuating up to 4.58.  Also I see the base clock is not at 100, I have seen this issue for similar boards.  Is there a bios which I can use to fix these issues.
    Another thing I found odd was I cant select in increments the mem voltage, and non of the choices are 1.5. only 1.65?  Also to add to this my profiles are not saving as when I load them they havent loaded the settings, also noticed how the name hasnt been kept for my profile?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
     This is not high expectations, almost every motherboard Ive owned has had voltage options in the bios. The only boards not to have them are ones that come from OEM companys like Dell ect and even then its not a board issue but a limited bios set that way by Dell engineers.
      Even my very first MSI motherboard many years ago had voltage options, I bought a pre-built gamer rig many years ago which was supposed to be top of the range but ended up being alot of cheap parts inside a nice looking case. The motherboard was a MSI 7060, when I checked online I found this board retailed for £35 at that time. So even the lowest end boards have voltage options.
    This isnt even about the board been capable of overclock, (although the board clearly is capable of oc'ing the bios has been nerfed obviously to make ppl have to buy the higher end boards if we want those options) its about having the ability to set voltages for the other components, my cpu will do 4.5Ghz with 1.28vcore, I want to be able to run it with that vcore not .1volt higher, nor do I want the fluctuations of the voltage jumping around as much as they do without simple vdroop control. My ram is rated for 1.65v but I can get away with under clocking it to 1600Mhz with just 1.58vddr, but this board doesnt give that option to do so.
    Again I want to illiterate this is not high expectations, I am an extreme overclocker , I have used many boards from all different price ranges and never had a board (other than OEM) with the voltage options nerfed. I know this is a mainstream product not aimed for extreme overclockers and I didnt buy it for that use. It was bought to go in a new dailly pc for gaming, media and web browsing and I was planing on running it at stock or only mildly overclocked. Either way I should be able to and have the options to change the voltages to settings I want to run. I shouldnt have to put up with the board overvolting and degrading my hardware.

  • Safari not saving mpegs correctly

    I have Tiger with 10.4.2 and I cannot save mpeg movies to my hard drive, QUICKTIME DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THEM. I also cant just click and "save as" because the option is not there. I have to use Opera (which works alot better in most all respects) or Firefox just be able to save movies that my Apple product with Apple Safari does not??

    I'm having a similar problem, and ControlOptionclick doesn't solve it. I've just discovered that I've been having this problem for several months.
    For a long time I could just hit Command+S and everything worked fine. I just discovered, however, that everything I've saved for the past couple of months either says it's a format Quicktime doesn't recognize, or it opens in Quicktime but only plays about a half second of black . . . no content.
    I tried the ControlOptionclick method and get exactly the same results.
    I found that I CAN save the mpeg by dragging the mpeg to my desktop, but I just gives it the generic title "Movie Clipping 1." For example, right now I'm trying to save a file called "Steve Martin Napkin Trick,." If I save it with Command+S or ControlOptionS, a file by that name (and with the QT movie icon) appears on my desktop. However, if I try to open that file it doesn't have any content. If I just drag the mpeg to my desktop, I get a QT movie file called "Movie Clipping 1" which plays back correctly.
    Dragging to the desktop functions as a work around, but it's a bit of a pain having to rename each file.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

  • Camera not saving photos correctly

    I can take photos with my camera but in the corner where the photo taken shows up, it shows loading bars like it's trying to do something with the photo. When I click there or try to open the photos taken on any of the apps to open photos, it starts loading indefinitely with a black background. Those photos also don't open in the computer. It's like the camera is having difficulties saving the photos correctly.I've tried restaring the phone, stopping and clearing the data for the Camera app, but nothing seems to have worked so far. Do you have any ideas of what to do?

    Try performing a system repair using PC Companion as this will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone and erase all data so best to backup before you begin
    Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
    Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
    If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP

  • Photoshop CS not saving files correctly.

    I have just recently tried to upload jpeg files converted from PSD and TIFF files in Pshop CS and received messages that the files were not jpeg files even though they had .jpeg at the end. I think this may have started about the time that I upgraded to 10.4.5 because several friends mentioned that they could not open some jpegs in their mail. At the time, I just figured it was a problem with their mail - but this upload experience seems to indicate otherwise.
    I did a search and did not see anything quite like this posted yet. Just wondered if anyone else is getting complaints that their jpegs can't be opened or if someone is aware of this problem.

    In the pulldown menu for format, it shows me JPEG, but it automatically uses the three letter extension on the file name when this is selected.
    Let me know if that does the trick.

  • 3g camera no longer asking to use location info and not saving it correctly

    I was out at the beach this morning under a nice clear sky and I was taking pics. The camera never asked me to use location information at all and it set the coordinates of the pics to my home where I'd last used the camera.
    I can't get it to ask me to use the location info anymore. Location services are turned on in settings. Tried rebooting iPhone too.

    Hi Nathan
    In iPhoto, are you looking at the info window bottom left? You may find that if you right click on the image (or control click) and choose 'Get Info' you will see the co-ordinates listed. It took me ages to work that one out.
    When you do get it working, I've found a really cool plug in for iPhoto to add the image to Google Earth - called appropriately enough 'iPhotoToGoogleEarth'. You can download it free from this link http://craig.stanton.net.nz/software/iPhotoToGoogleEarth.html
    If you then export the image from iPhoto to the desktop (or wherever) via iPTGE, and then drag the resulting .kmz file to the Google Earth logo in the dock, it places a pin on the map where the pic was taken - you can then click and view the image - it's brilliant and very accurate.
    Please report back and let us know if the gps data is still missing - it does seem to be a bit hit and miss at the moment.
    Best
    Tim
    PS. When I say the above plug in is free, the guy does ask for donations if you enjoy using it - to help fund a trip he is taking. It is brilliant so I will be making a small donation and recommend others do the same if they find it useful.

  • Corrections not saved?

    Does anyone else have the problem of InDesign (CS3) not saving text corrections? This happens over and over and I know I'm not crazy. This happens more in a large document such as a catalog or multiple page brochure/booklet.
    I can find a mistake, correct it, save it numerous times, both using keyboard shortcuts AND the menu AND not only SAVE, but SAVE AS. I can close the file, come back the next day and the correction is not made. I run into this ALL the time and it is causing me not only headaches, but costing money in fees when we find the error on a printer's proof and have to correct it then.
    This isn't usually a problem on small documents, but multiple page documents and books. It seems like the larger the document, the more it drops those text corrections.
    I hope this has been corrected in CS4!

    Someone posted exactly the same problem a few months ago. Was it you? I don't recall that we found a solution, bit if it was someone else, it would be worth searching to see if you can find the old thread.
    This certainly isn't a common complaint, which makes me tend to think it's something about your configuration, which is no help at all.
    Are you using Version Cue?

  • Hub not saving mail drafts after 10.3

    I'm using bb q10 from it's first firmware, so I really liked how cool it was to write a part of one email, then answer another and easily get back to saved draft of first.
    And it worked before 10.3.1.1779.
    After phone had updated the firmware, strange things happened: the phone not saving drafts correctly.
    I didn't even found any logic of that bug. If I tap "save" when I quit from email writing, it doesn't save the draft. But in some cases it saves the draft, but doesn't rewrite it.
    I tried:
    Reboot the device
    Delete the draft
    Nothing from that helped

    I have a similar issue - but with a twist. My list of emails shows that a received email has an attachment (the paperclip icon in the attachments column) but there is no attachment. There is no save option or Quick Look option under the header. Why would the list indicate an attachment exists where none exists?

  • Microsoft Outlook 2010 The delegates settings were not saved correctly. Cannot activate Send-on-behalf-of list. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.

    I am trying to assign delegation to a user and I receive the following message.
    The delegates settings were not saved correctly.  Cannot activate Send-on-behalf-of list.  You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.
    We are using 2010 for the server and client.  There are only specific mailboxes that this is happening for after being migrated from Lotus Notes.  The user can use their mailfile fine however it is just the delegation that appears corrupted somehow. 
    I'm not sure how to fix this.  I have checked the access through the security tab in ad and that looks fine.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I did some more digging and I solved it.
    This would be the solution:
    In Active Directory Users and Computers
    -Click on VIEW
    -Click on ADVANCE FEATURES  (this is important otherwise you won't see
    the complete list in the next steps)
    -Click on the USERS container
    -Find the problem user's account
    -Right mouse the account and click on PROPERTIES
    -Click on the SECURITY tab
    -In the top box, click on the SELF account
    -In the bottom portion of the screen make sure the READ PERSONAL
    INFORMATION  & WRITE PERSONAL INFORMATION  should both be checked for
    ALLOW
    If you can compare the permissions for 'SELF' with another user you probably should set them accordingly to be safe. I noticed that for the user where setting delegates (SOB) did
    not work, more than those 2 permissions were missing.
    Good luck!

  • Hyperlinks not saved correctly in PDF and Excel

    Hi,
    I have a few reports with hyperlinks to other reports that contain multiple input parameters, which makes the links very long. ( greater than 400 characters )
    When the reports are saved as excel, I am unable to invoke the child report on clicking the link as the link is not saved entirely ( can see that when i try to edit the hyperlink in excel ).  Therefore the child report opens but prompts for inputs as not all the inputs are passed
    When saved as pdf, the link is not saved correctly and i cannot invoke the child report at all
    Please can you suggest a solution/workaround? Alternately is it possible to disable the hyperlinks when saved as excel/pdf?
    Regards
    Sameer

    Hello,
    I think this is a limitation in Excel where URL syntax has to be 255 characters or less
    In order to prove that it's coming from excel and not BO, try in excel to create a false hyperlink which contains more than 255 characters.
    A workaround might be to modify the cell as text and will not be recognized as a URL. So you should get it entirely.
    Please let me know if it helps you

  • Photoshop CS6 - Spot channels are not saved correctly in the psd files.

    Hi,
    I'm using Photoshop CS6 and something happent a few days ago....some Windows or Adobe update messed up everything...I don't know...
    Here's how things are.
    If I add to an image a couple of new spot channels (any Pantone color) and remove the informations from the CMYK channels (or not-the problem it's there anyway), I should have an image with 6 color plates (CMYK and the 2 Pantone). It doesn't happened anymore...
    I'm using Corel to print the files and the previous saved files are fine, I have all the Spot colors there. Now, If I edit any file I've worked on before, and save it again, the spot colors dissapear when I'm importing the psd file in my Corel document. And if there is no information on the CMYK channels, I'm getting a blank image...
    I hope someone will give me some ideas because I don't know what to do anymore...
    Codrut

    Right. It's not reading these new saved files correctly. The old ones are fine.
    I forgot to mention one thing. I've got this CS6 as an upgrade and I still have the CS5 one running on the same computer. The CS5 version does the same thing...
    Today I tryed again to open a PSD (CS6) with another CS5 version from another computer and came with an error message "Could not complete your request because the specified color book cannot be found". And the file didn't opened....
    Who messed up my color book and how can I fix it?
