Additional command line problem with "comment", help needed Options

[hydrogenxx]

Hi, this is my EAC additional command line in compression options:

-V -8 -T "artist=%artist%" -T "title=%title%" -T "album=%albumtitle%" -T "date=%year%" -T "tracknumber=%tracknr2%" -T "genre=%genre%" %source%


It works perfect, but I wanted to add the "comment" parameter as well, and have made this change:

-V -8 -T "artist=%artist%" -T "title=%title%" -T "album=%albumtitle%" -T "date=%year%" -T "tracknumber=%tracknr2%" -T "genre=%genre%" -T "comment=%comment%" %source%


But nothing happens, after the ripping process the "comment" field in the created tag remains blank. The test encoder function returns no error. What am I doing wrong?

Yes and it doesn't work unless the F11 Comment Tab "Write the comment text of the CD ..." is enabled, we've just come to that conclusion :-)

Ah, I see. Isn't that the default setting, though?

EAC's user interface is a trip, isn't it? I don't think all the different options could be organized any more poorly, not to mention the fractured English translations and the assorted remnants of when the program was primarily used for creating MP3s. Like this option, which describes writing ID3 tags.
