Wild Bill

I don’t even fully understand torrenting and how to do it, so I suppose that’s a relief in this case. I can be carelessly quick with stuff like this, lol.

Well, at least now I know the issue isn’t on my end, so that’s a relief. I’m fine with how things are right now, it’s all very scattered but I can create a playlist of my favourites to make it easier. Besides, once I get to the tagging part of your guide I imagine things will get much more accurate. I’ve downloaded all of my 1000 songs now so I think I’ll delete my Spotify account and leave the world of streaming (music) behind. (:

I can’t view the metadata on my phone, just on my computer. As an example I’m viewing the song “Crown of Thorns” by Black Veil Brides. It is a FLAC file (as per the settings), and on my computer I can see the date released, artist, album, genre, track number, file size… so I don’t know why this info doesn’t translate to the music player on my phone (Gramophone). Maybe it’s because I haven’t gone through with the tagging process yet? In which case that’s understandable.

Also, some songs failed to download from deemix, but their .lrc files still downloaded. Can I transfer these .lrc files to my phone (along with the other downloaded songs), or must the FLAC and LRC files be downloaded as a pair for the metadata to be synced with the right song?

Hm, unfortunately all songs are listed as Unknown Year, and the genres are very scattered and inaccurate. I’ve ticked all the tag boxes already. So long as I can solve this with the tagging applications, I shouldn’t have to redownload everything, or?

Just to be clear, because some metadata is missing such as year released, tagging and such can all be solved in the other applications? Deemix is solely used for download?

Thank you so much for your help! So excited to finally begin the journey of owning my music.

Do you think it would be fine for me to download all songs and then wait until I’m able to download the tagging applications, or does everything need to happen in one go for everything to sync? I’m thinking waiting about a year (when I buy a new computer) and then use the apps to tag my songs, or will I still need the data from deemix?

Hey again! Just a random question.

Is it okay to skip the tagging steps in your guide? My school computer won’t allow me to download the mp3tag application, and I wonder if these tagging steps are necessary or will mess anything up if skipped? I downloaded some songs to my phone and most metadata and lyrics are there, and that’s fine with me. Does not completing the guide make me miss out on anything important (such as metadata or syncing the files)?

You didn’t waste my time. This experiment kick-started my process of finally downloading my music, even if it didn’t work out completely. Not yours or anybody else’s fault anyway. (: Do feel free to update me!

Oops, too early to cheer… looks like I can only download individual songs seamlessly, but when I try the playlists the “cannot read properties of undefined” error keeps popping up. Ugh, I’m so close to the finish line, why’s there always a hinder. (':
