Xion Audio Player

[fixed: 105] Showing filename if no IDv tags available

Discuss potential bugs with other users or try to find out a solution to an existing bug

I just found myself staring at my skin that had no artist or song name written on it, and i thought that either my skin or Xion had bugged up. Then i realised it's just a file with no information, thus giving blanks.

Perhaps you can make Xion default to showing the filename ( minus the extension ) if there's no other info? I sometimes have mp3's that are tagless but have the info in the filename, like say 'Metallica - St Anger.mp3'
I shoot and ask questions later.

Take no offense of it.

Hmm I can't reproduce this.

Can you send me a copy of the file using the Contact page?

Perhaps the tag was filled with spaces? I don't think you ever ended up sending me this file, do you still have the problem on the latest Beta?

Oh, i'll give this a shot right away.

EDIT: Test done. Yes, this does happen in beta too.

However, i was a bit more thoroughal this time around, and found that Xion doesn't default to showing the filename, when tags are enabled, meaning that if you enable the tag, but don't write anything in it, you get a blank.

The file i used for this test only had an album name, and a year.

Awesome, thanks for that. I've fixed it for build 105.

I also moved this to Bugs, since it was a bug that it wasn't showing the filename. It should have always been working ;)
