If mp3tag for some reason fails do save tag data to a media file, a temporary copy of the media file is left and not deleted.
To reproduce:
-> You'll find an additional tmp file in the directory which must be deleted manually. Otherwise it will stay there forever. -u302320 This post has been edited by u302320: May 12 2011, 08:03 |

Do you think it is ok to waste space on the user's hard disk without any reason? If mp3tag is able to diagnose the problem and show a dialog it should also be able to delete the self-created tmp file afterwards. -u302320 This post has been edited by u302320: May 12 2011, 18:47 |

This is especially an issue if the file happens to be a 2GB to 4GB .mp4 file... |

ZITAT(edrikk @ May 14 2011, 01:55) The .tmp file is ... an issue As far as I know dows the tmp-file contain all the modifications written by mp3tag. You can now choose whether you want to delete the old unmodified file manually and rename the tmp file or apply the changes all over again. I think that mp3tag treats the data entered by the user with a lot of respect. -------------------- 42 - wie war die Frage / what was the question / comment était la question
