<p>I'm seeing some weird behavior when exporting songs,
specifically related to song keys.</p>
<p>For the song in question: the song grid displays the key as
C.</p>
<p>When I export a single song, the XML contains the
following:<br></p>
<pre>
<code> <void property="key">
<object class="com.tagtraum.audiokern.key.MajorKey" method="valueOf">
<string>C_MAJOR</string>
</object>
</void></code>
</pre>
<p>When I export all songs for this artist, the XML is:<br></p>
<pre>
<code> <void property="key">
<object id="MajorKey0" class="com.tagtraum.audiokern.key.MajorKey" method="valueOf">
<string>C_MAJOR</string>
</object>
</void></code>
</pre>
<p>and when I export all songs in the library:<br></p>
<pre>
<code> <void property="key">
<object idref="MajorKey6"/>
</void></code>
</pre>
<p>As I understand it, MajorKey6 maps to G Major, not C Major.</p>
<p>Any help would be appreciated.</p>
<p>if you experienced a crash or other abnormal behavior, you might
want to attach log files from
C:\Users\rick816us\AppData\Local\tagtraum
industries\beaTunes\logs</p>

<p>beaTunes uses <a href=
"http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/persistence/">http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/persistence/</a>
for export/import. So MajorKey6 may map to whatever was serialized
before with that specific id. In other words, the id is not the
same each time you export something, but refers to a key that was
serialized earlier in the same file.</p>
<p>Hope this helps,</p>

<p>Thanks for the reply. I'm not a java expert, so I guess my
question is;<br>
Is there a method (export, web service, etc) to access the current
value<br>
of a metadata item?</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Rick</p></div>Rick Blevinstag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/18615702010-06-06T16:50:37Z2010-06-06T16:50:37ZExport Issues<div><p>Hi Rick,</p>
<p>Export or a plugin are your only options. How do you want to
continue<br>
to process the data? I.e. what is your final goal?</p>

<p>Just experimenting with some of beaTunes metadata. I should be
able to<br>
get the data I want from your previous emails. I'll let you know
how it<br>
goes.</p>
