iTSfv - iTunes Store file validator, A tool to check, validate and fill missing tags Options

[vulc44n]

Has anyone been having issues with reverse scrobbling? It used to work for me but I don't get anything now.

[~*McoreD*~]

vulc44n, ReverseScrobbling requires implementation of the Last.fm API 2.0 - this is still in the works for iTSfv 6.

All,

Due to the recent issue with LyricWiki:

CODE

Unfortunately, due to licensing restrictions from some of the major music publishers we can no longer return lyrics through the LyricWiki API (where this application gets some or all of its lyrics).

The lyrics for this song can be found at the following URL:
http://lyricwiki.org/Gossip:Heavy Cross

Gossip:Heavy Cross


(Please note: this is not the fault of the developer who created this application, but is a restriction imposed by the music publishers themselves.)

I have made changed to iTSfv Lyric Viewer:



An update to iTSfv 5.60 will release shortly.

hey McoreD, is there a chance that we'll be able to get the lyrics added to the id3 tags of the songs so they show up on ipods/iphones again? perhaps by using a different source? here are some lyrics databases with APIs:

Hello,
I just found out about your tool. It seems quite nice, I'll have a try at it.
My question: is there a way to easily export/create a .txt/excel file of ALL my iTunes songs, with these infos: artist / album name / song name / track number / encoding quality.
My final goal is to try and remove all true duplicates, with priorities lossless > MP3.

Hey -- Yeah, you can do that out of iTunes itself. I do that once a year for kicks.

File --> Export Song List --> Library.txt.
Then open via Excel, using Delimited, Tab.

Has pretty much all tag info, then you can re-arrange as necessary.

Actually, that last note was for an older version of iTunes. On iTunes 8.2.1.6, Highlight all tracks in Library, then Click File --> Library --> Export Playlist

Thank you Troy! It was so obvious I did not even think about looking after that in iTunes...

Do you have any idea when? I known its not nice to ask but i really miss my lyrics and many of my songs now have the disclaimer text from lyrics wiki as lyric

Would it be possible to use this tool to export playcounts for songs or possibly change the audio file's path but keep playcounts/last played date the same? I dont want to have to delete the old music files and tell itunes where to find the new files just so I can keep the playcounts and last played dates. Even better, if I could export my playcount, last played date, added date to foobar
Can this tool do this? I see an export tags option but is that what I need to use? Will it backup last played date and date added stats?

Is there a way to prevent iTSfv (5.61.2.1) from touching my mp3 files while importing?

I disabled "Refersh tags when adding new files to Library" which helped to stop iTSfv remove the leading zero in my track numbers. And I enabled "Retain Track's Date Modified after validation".
The files are not changed in any way when importing, but the file date is still modified.

Any way to fix this?

Thanks.

I use both iTunes and Windows Media Player since I have a Windows 7 media center in my living room.

I am looking for a way to sync ratings from iTunes into the POPM field of each song on an ongoing basis so the ratings will just "work" with Media Center (since it supports POPM field).

I installed the latest (v5.61) of iTSfv but didn't see a way to do what I"m looking for, and instead it does the opposite -- it will "import ratings from POPM frame" instead of "Export ratings from iTunes to POPM frame".

Am I mistaken or is this functionality missing? If it is missing, does anyone have a way to do this easily?

(I also don't want a solution that will blindly write out ratings again, without detecting if the rating is already present. In other words, I don't want to alter the file unless it truly has changed. Otherwise my file backup will needless keep backing up every song since it's technically changed/been updated)
