MP3Tag hags after having loaded half of tags Options

[musiq]

This is Version 2.49

The library is composed of a subdirectory structure of 1427 folders and 16504 files.
I want to build an export list of the library and position at the top of the root folder, MP3Tag starts and after some time read the amount of tracks correctly (about 12000) and reads tags. After about 6600 tags it hangs consuming about 120KB me memory, the system stilll has 60% of free physical memory.

There is no message, nothing displayed, I have to kill it.

How to debug/fix this?

..it happens ... from time to time ...
... just wait longer ... until Mp3tag itself finishes the process,
... run smaller portions,
... optimize the export script.

It could also be that there is a corrupted file in the library.
Try to check the file that causes the trouble if you can determine which it is.
If you cannot, check the whole library with a tool like mp3val or foobar2000.

well, I let it run for very long ... I see that the processor is frozen and memory does not increase, so it really hangs but no crash.

MP3val does not work as it is only lossless CD and Vinyl rips, FLAC and M4A (ALAC) files, no MP3.

If I run MP3Tag with less subdirectly it naturally work, but it is not the goal, I want to make a full export to build an album list. The script is really a tiny one and I have also tried the default ones :

$filename(liste_des_albums_bibliotheque.txt,utf-8)rubrique;artiste;album;année;codec;type;Fréquence;Quality
$loop(%artist%)$loop(%album%,1)%genre%;%artist%;$if($eql( HD,$right(%album%,3)),$left(%album%,$sub($len(%album%),3)),%album%);%year%;%_codec%;$upper(%_extension%);$if($eql(%_samplerate%,44100),44.1KHz,)$if($eql(%_samplerate%,48000),48KHz,)$if($eql(%_samplerate%,88200),88.2KHz,)$if($eql(%_samplerate%,96000),96KHz,)$if($eql(%_samplerate%,176400),176.4KHz,)$if($eql(%_samplerate%,192000),192KHz,);$if($grtr(%_samplerate%,44100),HD,$if($eql(MP3,$upper(%_extension%)),$if($eql(%_vbr%,CBR),%_bitrate%Kb/s,VBR),CD))
$loopend()$loopend()

I need to know how to figure on which file it is hanging with some kind of log ... I cannot dig into thousands of files!

This mp3val http://mp3val.sourceforge.net/
works perfectly with mp3 files.

What result do you expect from this report script?
Does the script work at least on one artist or two artists?
How should the report look like?
Check out, if the round brackets in the $if statement have been set at their right place.
Is it correct, that there is no loop per track?

I did a revision of your script code and rewrote it into this three lines ...

Line 1:
$filename($getEnv('USERPROFILE')'\Desktop\Liste_des_albums_bibliotheque.txt',UTF-8)'Rubrique;Artiste;Album;Année;Codec;Type;Fréquence;Quality'
Line 2:
$loop(%ARTIST%)$loop(%ALBUM%)$loop(%_filename%)%GENRE%';'%ARTIST%';'$if($eql(' HD',$right(%ALBUM%,3)),$cutRight(%ALBUM%,3),%ALBUM%)';'%YEAR%';'%_codec%';'$upper(%_extension%)';'$trimRight($div(%_samplerate%,1000)'.'$mod(%_samplerate%,1000),'0.')' KHz;'$ifgreater(%_samplerate%,44100,'HD',$if($eql('MP3',$upper(%_extension%)),$if($eql(%_vbr%,'CBR'),%_bitrate%' Kb/s','VBR'),'CD'))
Line 3:
$loopend()$loopend()$loopend()

... which will output something like this ...

Line 1:
Rubrique;Artiste;Album;Année;Codec;Type;Fréquence;Quality
Line 2:
Dance;Afro Medusa;Hed Kandi: Disco Kandi 3;2001-01-29;MPEG 1 Layer III;MP3;44.1 KHz;VBR
Line 3:
Blues;Akon;Bravo Black Hits, Volume 16;2007-03-30;MPEG 1 Layer III;MP3;44.1 KHz;160 Kb/s
Line 4:
Pop Italian;Anna Tatangelo;Ragazza di periferia;2006;MPEG 1 Layer III;MP3;44.1 KHz;128 Kb/s

Maybe that is what you need.
