Change the tag writing option in advanced preferences to "Prefer folder tags, write stream tags to SQLite, read all three tag types" and it will do exactly as the setting suggests. Folder tags will be used when there is a folder to write to, streams will use database and all supported tag types will be read.

CUETools / Re: How would you interpret my accurate rip results?
Last post by korth -
Did you read the section of the wiki page I linked in my previous post on pressings in AccurateRip?

And there are 2 databases discussed in this thread.
AccurateRip database currently has Checksums for at least 2 pressings of this CD. One at +0 (relative offset of your rip) and one at -12 (relative to your rip).
CUETools DataBase (CTDB) does not store Checksums separately by pressing. The repair option is for CDs that have a recovery record and submitted to CTDB only. The repair script does not alter the offset of any part of your rip.
foobar2000 shows results from AccurateRip database only.
CUETools Repair log shows results from AccurateRip database only (the only info shown from CTDB in that log is that the script repaired 33 samples). To see new CTDB results after a repair, you need to manually run Verify in CUETools on the repaired file(s).
CUETools/CTDB cannot submit anything to the AccurateRip database.

Maybe a stupid question: If I would like to tag RG to internet radio but I always store external tags as files in folders with music would it still tag the stream and where would that tag be? I do not want to permanently switch to any sql-db. Or maybe I should change it just for that one tagging to sq mode and can revert to files mode for normal/everyday files listening. Would the component check both (tags as files and tags in sq)?

OK, Thanks.

BTW, I found that oggenc's default serial number generation is not random enough, and quite easily collide.
As far as I can see, oggenc, flac, and opusenc use different methods for seeding random generator.
oggenc just uses getpid() ^ time(NULL) as random seed, which might be too weak to be used as entropy...

How is there different offsets for each track if theres only 1 cd in the database that cueTools repairs off of? Is my VD an updated version compared to the original pressings? If anyone burned their own copy of a cd, wouldn't the offset be a fixed number per track?

No, it didn't.
Actually, I have both versions of the PDB files, so I disassembled them using dumpbin.exe and compared the machine code of the functions in both versions, but there were no differences.

On peak scanning, every sample is casted to double and then absolute value is computed
But that did not change from 2.83 to 2.84, or did it?
