  2. Over the past months Media Player always came up with Unknown Artist / Unknown Title (no metadata) so I typed in the data (🤔). Then discovered that Media Player had a severe case of #Microsoft #enshittification. They had deliberately switched off its ability to retrieve #metadata.
    Then I found fre:ac and been using it since. Quite a powerful and flexible rip utility 🙂. Also use #Picard from #MusicBrainz.
    Uninstalled Media Player.
    Happy days!

  6. I have a large local #musiclibrary—mostly #flac with some #m4a. I sync it between my #nas and four computers using #rsync.
    Unfortunately, I recently discovered that some files appear to be corrupted, even though I've always checked the rsync logs. 🫢

    I'll need to scan the entire library now to see how widespread the damage is. I first noticed something was wrong when a few tracks started skipping mid-song while playing via #mpd / #mpc.

    I guess nothing lasts forever—not even music files. 😞
