Questions / modify "added" statistics by hand?
July 16, 2014, 17:47:15
Hi there.
is there a way to manually modify the statistics of a song?
I created my database in GMB a few months ago but most of my music it's been a part of my collection for years. is there a way to manually modify the "added" value of these files?
thanks!

I was wondering if its possible to somehow implement a feature I had in foobar2000.
the statistics for a song (rating,play count, last played) were saved on a per-song basis based on tags and not per file. this is quite helpful when you have different versions of the same album, let's say mp3, flac, ogg, etc.
is it possible to do something like this with gmb?

another quick question, I can export those statistics from foobar2000 as an xml file. is there a way to import them into gmb?

thanks for any info.

Hello. I've been trying to get gapless playback to work for a few days now and haven't.  I already know it's a gstreamer problem.
I did find something interesting about mpg123. when I give it any two mp3 files as argument like this:
mpg123 -C 1-04\ 2\ Minutes\ To\ Midnight.mp3 1-05\ The\ Talisman.mp3

in the terminal, the gapless playback works flawlessly.
but when I choose mpg123 in gmusicbrowser the gap comes back. I read the other thread about gapless where it said that if you use mplayer the problem is that mplayer closes and relaunches with every new file, and corrent me if I'm wrong, I think the same thing happens with mpg123, doesn't it?

I'm thinking, if there's a way for gmusicbrowser to feed mpg123 with the entire playlist, instead of each file individually, that would fix the gapless playback problem you have. I don't know if this is possible though.
btw, I've tried quite literally *every* linux music player and gmusicbrowser is clearly the best one out there. thanks for all the hard work :)
