![]() For example, it doesn't have the Publisher field, nor the BPM or Initial Key fields, the web site fields, etc. We can use the file names as “clues” which help us get a match we’re confident in, but we don’t make assumptions that those clues represent good, clean data.Cakewalk doesn't provide as many potential fields as MP3tag (and probably other programs of that sort). The point is, the metadata layers are based on explicit information from a few sources – metadata retrieved from our cloud service, info from your file tags,or edits you’ve explicitly made in the app. More info on our editing “layers” can be found here. In the editing screens, you can choose from the metadata Roon has found, the metadata embedded in your file tags, or any edits you’ve made in Roon. The detailed metadata (including track numbers) we retrieve based on this identification goes into the Roon metadata “layer”, which is what you were editing in your original post. Once we know the length of each track, we can use this table of contents (or TOC) as a sort of fingerprint, which helps us confidentially identify the album and pull down the right metadata. Roon will look at file names during the import process, and these can function like a “clue” which helps us order the tracks properly, so the album can be identified by our metadata service. Hey – there are two concepts here that I think may be getting confused. I’m a relatively new Roon user (since last fall), so is this a bug? or do I not know how to tell Roon to use the track numbers and titles from the filenames? I’m stumped and appreciate any help. But I can’t get Roon to use the filenames for it’s info. I understand the directory structure & filename conventions, so it’s real easy for me to fix problems this way. ![]() ![]() That worked fine, but it sure would have been easier to have it pick up the info from the filenames. ![]() On that one I ended up editing each track, changing the number and title. Same problem, I wasn’t able to edit the album and get it to use the track numbers and titles from the filenames. I changed the track filenames to what they should be, but Roon didn’t pick them up. I have another album that it didn’t know track numbers or titles. The “prefer File” boxes are unchecked for track number and title. But nothing changes (tracks still in wrong order) and if I go back to edit the album, it doesn’t save my changes. I’ve tried to edit the album and tell it to use “file” metadata (I put the checkmarks in the “prefer File” boxes) and save it. Apparently it uses info, perhaps imbedded within the files in the download, for track numbers which are not correct. That is, the track numbers and titles in the filenames are correct.īut Roon doesn’t use the filename info. I took the time to go into the track numbers in the filenames and fix them, so now they are in the correct order in the files. For the most part, everything works great.īut I got a new high res one from HDtracks (The Nutcracker), and for whatever reason, when I downloaded it, the tracks are in the wrong order. I have albums, both high res and cd, on a hard disk on a mac-mini (mac runs the core). I have Roon version 1.4 build 306 on core and tablet.
