I have every friday a 2 hour disco show with 4 MP3's every hour. This files i get from a FTP server with every week the same name so every thing is going autmatic. In my script i have in every line "SupressSongTitleUpdate". On the left site by "T" i have give the first line a different name.

Now the question is why does Proppfrexx not pass this on as metadata?

Thanks in advance

Probably because you used the SuppressSongTitleUpdate option ;-)
As this name suggest it suppress it.

Just remove that option and only use the T button to set an alternative song title manually. That should work.

Hi Bernd,

Has you can see i have written by 'T' a name for this file/line. By options i have left SuppressTitleUpdate. Now the name is not comming up in the metadata.

I have been trying to write the auto cues to a MP3 Intro and Segue tag so that BSI Simian is able to detect. Is there a way to create the custom tags? I need the "Ramp" setting to be Intro and "Next" to be Sec Tone. I have also noticed that the tag needs to be ID3v1 ID3v2.3. Is the an option to set the tags for that format?

Thanks.

@Radiofreak: as written above, you need to remove the SuppressSongTitleUpdate option!
So please set the option to None and try again.

@djmksz: No, there is no option to write tag data for BSI.

That’s more than strange.
In the above Image it was still present.

To what have you set your song title update format in your streaming server configuration within ProppFrexx?
