[SOLVED] goggles music manager albums no longer alphabetical

Hi All,
In the albums section gmm shows albums in random order, well not really random. For example, under Zappa I get "Chunga's" Revenge through "Yellow Shark" are alphabetical but then the list continues with "Freak Out", "Absolutely Free", "Hot Rats" and like that. Clicking on the header reverses the order but it is still not alphabetical. Any Clues?
Thanks

Perhaps they're sorted by year? (do a right on the header or list and see if the sort by album year is checked)

[SOLVED] Goggles music manager - back to fullscreen?

Hello
I use goggles music manager at my netbook. I turned the mini player view on. But I didn't find a way to turn back on the full view mode.
I found at the website from goggles the shortcut key, F12, but this didn't work.
Anyone knows how to fix this? I'm using arch+openbox+lxde

F11 toggles the miniview on or off. Or just press the close button on the window.
Fullscreen is something completely different and not relevant to the discussion.

Goggles Music Manager v0.9.11 is out with the following improvements:
- Support embedded cover art in flac files (jpg and png only).
- Support last-fm 'now playing' notification.
- Use "ALBUMARTIST" tag in Ogg / FLAC files and TPE2 for id3v2 tags for artist.[Tag reading only]
- Support album art in notification to notify-daemon.[D-Bus enabled version only]
- DBus enabled version now also support the ability to control a running gmm from the command line.
It's still using FOX and still as ugly as some people think it is
Nevertheless, it still beats the new Banshee regarding memory use and performance
Thank you very much for the ALBUMARTIST tag...
You should know tho, that the TPE2 tag has been misused... its only used by itunes and windows media player and some others. The problem: TPE2 tag was originally created for BAND/ORCHESTRA informations, which has nothing to do with ALBUMARTIST...
An alternative would be a user-chosen tag for the albumartist. Ogg/flac/mpc can do this anyway. and id3v2 has the TXXX tag for that matter.
Also do you think you will add some kind of playlist at some point? would be nice, if one could queue songs from different albums... (probably even multiple playlists as in tabs?) (Think like: mark songs: Send to playlist -> blabla)
Regarding the FOX toolkit: i dont mind. Its VERY fast, which is a nice thing. Of course it would be nice if it integrated better with gtk and/or qt, but none of those 2 can match the speed of FOX.
P.S.: Any news on the replaygain tag info reading?
Some info: http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php … Replaygain
just make sure to support the tag based approach of mp3gain too... because mp3gain has both options - modifying the actual audio data and writing tags.
P.P.S: Another thing i want to suggest is some kind of plugin architecture... not sure if you designed gmm in a way that makes this possible. But if the possibility is there gmm is actually VERY close to foobar2000, which is a real compliment by the way

*** iOS4 Update: Photo Albums No Longer Alphabetical Order ***

Hey all, I have a 3GS and just did the 4.0 update today. Everything works fine, no errors, etc........but when I go into my Photo Albums...
...and for example; Click "My Vacation". The photo album opens up at the bottom, so I have to scroll upwards to see the photos, where-as before you always started at the top of the album and scrolled down to see all your photos.
Not only that, they are completely out of alphabetical order. I've went into the folder itself on my computer and made sure it was organized.
My friends phone did the same thing on an entirely seperate computer. Any ideas how to get it alphabetical again?

This is a MAJOR problem for me. Several of my photo albums are actually screen shots of Hebrew texts for prayers. Until now, the photos displayed in filename order, so that the screens shots of text were in the proper order. Now they do not!
I use a PC, and I am not going to buy a Mac just to have the power to re-order my photos within an album! That's ridiculous to require that!
This has only been an issue since the ios4 update, and Apple needs to fix it!

[solved]goggles music player internet streams keep cutting out

hello
just wondering if anyone knows why gmm cuts out and gives read errors very frequently when playing music streams?? i stream from di.fm.... and all the streams run from 30 secs to 15 mins then just cut out, and i have to reload the stream and it plays again perfectly, but this just keeps happening over and over.... it never used to a year or so back... it would run constantly for days with no errors.... the identical streams run perfectly with vlc.... shame, cos i prefer gmm... have used it for years and its great apart from this annoying issue.

Error while installing goggles music manager

With
pacman -S musicmanager
I get the following error
checking package integrity...

error: could not prepare transaction
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)

Any help?

Then I guess I'll have to build the package by my own.

Weird: Music in no longer alphabetized by artist

All of my music is no longer alphabetized by artist and is just randomly set in my iTunes library. How can I switch it back?

Check the column headers, if you have, for example, the Artist; Album; and Genre columns displayed, the music could be sorted by Genre or Album if you have clicked on those column headers. You can tell which one is doing the sorting by looking for a little black triangle in the column header (it can do ascending and descending sort also). This allows for flexibility in sorting.

My photo albums are no longer alphabetical after ios5 update

I upgraded my Ipad 2 & ipod touch 4g to ios 5. My photo albums which sync to photoshop elements are no longer alphabetical which now makes it a pain to locate photos. What can I do?

The contacts is saved on Google or Backup Assistance (Whichever you are using) and you can use ES File Explorer like I posted at http://community.vzw.com/t5/Android-Apps/Simple-way-to-Backup-apps-for-Hard-Reset/td-p/658707 , so you really wont loose anything but apps data...
BUT, I am not saying that you do this if that is your only issue... I was just pointing out that this is a good ideal to do with any Major Updates..
If the contacts isnt linked again you should get the option to link them again once the OS boots, normally it checks and then prompt to link again..

Get CD Info from Music Manager no longer available

After upgrading PC Suite to 6.82.22 the option to "Get CD information" from Gracenote has been removed, or at least in my case it is no longer available. However, when looking at the help files, it still appears to give directions on how to use this service.
I have tried many well known artist´s CD but the option to get information does not appear, therefore all song titles have to be entered manually. N.B the CDs are originals, not pirated!
Can anyone confirm if the removal of this function is supposed to be the case. Thanks

The help files seem to suggest the Gracenote service is only available if the phone is connected. Some kind of licensing restriction perhaps.
I'd try connecting the phone and re-inserting the CD, should then get the Gracenote Terms and Conditions box. Also make sure Music Manager is allowed net access by your firewall.

Music albums no longer have the artist name associated with it

I updated to IOS 5 and In transferrig all my music to the ipad1, some of the albums no longer have the artist name associated with it..So when I search by artist name, it only shows they have one album when it should be two..
Also switching between songs, artist, album is very very painfully slow..seems like the music app hangs sometimes.
Tried many times resyncing and deleting but didn't work..Anybody experiencing these problems??

I have the same problem, and after hours of trying to figure out the problem i finally did!! Its going to be a pain in the BUTT, but its the only way. :/
1. Look for the song file.
2. Right click and choose prefences
3. Go to details and edit the information
- "Title" aka songs name
- "Album artist"
- "Album"
-The rest of the stuff can be filled in if you want
4. Click OK
5. Drag it into itunes
Hope this help. ;D

Drag and drop album art in Nokia Music Manager

Hi there, I am just making my first steps with the Nokia Music Manager (NMM). After converting my music files to the m4a format I want to add the album art. There is a little field on the bottom of the screen of the NMM called "Drop graphic here" (don't no exactly the wording - I have the german version). I have tried different ways but nothing happens. What do I do wrong?
Kind regards
netdog63

Hi.
Had the same problem and couldn't find anything anywhere, just stupid workarounds using wmp & itunes and **bleep**.
Solution is very simple
You can only drag'n'drop album art onto songs which are in 'My Collection'.
So... Copy your mp3's to the 'My Collection' view and it should work.
This also enables the 'Edit' function in Nokia Music Manager which lets you edit tags aswell as album art.
Hope this helps...

Music Manager - Not Recognising Album/Artist

Hi All,
This seems to be a bit of a **bleep** - Music Manager is not recognising my Track/Album/Artist titles when I import my music files.
I keep all my tunes in iTunes. Now, I think probably 90% or above of the world population use iTunes to manage their music files, so I'm assuming Music Manager would have been developed with this in mind and should integrate fully on something as simple as a track/artist/album title tag?
Or is there something stupid I'm doing - I have a 5500 and run XP, all up to date.
It's damn annoying to have hundreds of songs on your phone, but when you go jogging/snowboarding/holidays you can't tell which artists you've got on there!
Any news on this chaps? I really don't want to be individually editing hundreds or thousands of tags - is there an update planned for this? Seems like a big bugbear for what are supposed to be 'media phones'.
Any news greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Darren.

Hi,
What you can do is from your phone songs copy those songs into My collection of Nokia Music Manager, then all your artists details will be displayed if the artist column is checked (ticked) in Customize view in View option of Nokia Music Manager,the songs which are copied in My collection only be displayed... Yeah i too agree this is an akward but this is how it works

Media Manager - Album Info

Folks,
I have about 300 CDs ripped as wav files to my PC. The are organized in folders artist/album. I have managed to get Media Monkey (a music manager) and Windows Media Player 11 to recognize album names and display album art even though wav files don't really have tags.
I can't get media manager to grab album names. Oh well that's life. But I can't even manually input the info. If I did few each night it would get done.
Any thoughts on this. I can browse by folder, which is the album name, but then I have to remember who the artist is The irony is it shows the album art!!
Is it just me, or is Verizon just plain bad at software design.
Any help is appreciated
- Andy R

There can be problems with media manager if your source clips do not have a reel associated with them (as happens with imported files as opposed to captured material). Try creating a tape name in the browser for these clips. This may solve your problem.
