[Empeg-general] Re: Automatic MP3 identification & how to build it

[Rob J]

I thought they did. Isn't that what the Personal Media Agent is? I don't know because I can't get the PMA to function from behind my firewall.

The PMA is far from done.  :)  We still have a pantload of stuff to implement/fix inside of it.  It's been kinda put on the backburner since we've been pouring our entire effort into the Opensourced Songprint SDK recently.

I think that's only if you're using it in command-line mode under Linux or if you're integrating their code into your own. Isn't the Personal Media Agent supposed to handle that?

Nope.  Well, not currently.  The whole point of the technology is to *NOT* rely on ID3 tag data (which is inherently incorrect).  Now, a feature where the PMA would go and REPLACE your ID3 tags with OUR tag data, that would be something that could be implemented, and we just hadn't thought of yet.
