Hi Hendrik,

I have installed 4.5 and the first issue I see is that the comment tag isn't being written to the file even though Embed non-iTunes info is ticked.

Cheers,
Ryan

    More info .. I think I worked it out .. comments aren't written to the file if you're currently listening to the track .. which is not ideal because I usually comment, rate and make tag changes while I'm listening to a track .. Can you make it so that it queues up unsaved changes and write later when I'm not playing the track?

    With beaTunes or some other app?

    Hey,
    Sorry for not following up .. This issue still exists .. not sure what's the cause .. I can write a couple of comments when I first start the application be then the log indicates the tags can't be written due to a file permission error:

    2016-07-09 17:21:37,347 [3294570] [ERROR][AudioMetaData] com.tagtraum.audiokern.AudioMetaData: Commit failed
    java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Users\Ryan\Music\Singles\Multicultural\Nobody Home - Entheogen (Original Mix).mp3 (The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process)

    beaTunes is the only thing open .. this happens even if the song is currently being played or not.

    Also, in this latest version 4.6.3 there's a huge lag when rating music. . The program freezes for up to a minute after clicking on the stars. It's intermittent .. which is not helpful :-/

    I am using iTunes xml library

    Really? Typically, with an iTunes-based library, iTunes must be on for beaTunes to work properly.

    Also, in this latest version 4.6.3 there's a huge lag when rating music. . The program freezes for up to a minute after clicking on the stars. It's intermittent .. which is not helpful :-/

    Are you running an analysis in beaTunes? Or is there perhaps an iTunes dialog (e.g. Get Info) open?

    In any case, can you please attach your logs. http://help.beatunes.com/kb/troubleshooting/where-are-the-beatunes-... explains how it's done.

    Thanks,

    Another idea: can you please run Tools -> Repair Database. After you have restarted beaTunes, does the problem persist?
