Greetings. This is my first time posting here. I've recently installed Foobar2000 for its .aiff ripping capabilities. Following my first rip, I attempted to update missing information in each track's properties, but got the following message:
Could not update tags (Tagging of this file format is not supported) My question - Is there a way to update tag info for .aiff files in Foobar2000? If not, is there another lossless format that foobar rips to that will allow tags to be updated? Is there another program that will rip to .aiff that will do this? Thanx in advance. |

If not, is there another lossless format that foobar rips to that will allow tags to be updated? FLAC, ALAC, WavPack and Monkey's with plugins, ... It is hard to imagine good reasons for using AIFF or WAV. -------------------- geocities.com/hydrogenaudio: http://goo.gl/tqYZj

It is hard to imagine good reasons for using AIFF or WAV. (Sorry for quoting old post.) Due to hardware/firmware limitations, some people are stuck with AIFF. E.g., Pioneer's line of CDJ players, a standard in the DJ booth, only supports WAV, AIFF, AAC, and MP3. No ALAC or FLAC. So, in that scenario, AIFF is best among the limited choices you've got (AIFF >> WAV due to better metadata support). The feature request gets my +1. |
