trjtrkuyti7t Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I have a couple of Cream albums for which Poweramp (v3, latest update, although the problem has existed for a long time) does not display the Track name or the artist name in the GUI even though the tags have all the correct info. I've tried reinstalling Poweramp, Rescanning folders, full rescan, removing/reinserting SD card. Didn't solve the issue. Kindly help. Thanks.

maxmp Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 (while in list) long press failing track / Send / Gmail / gpmaxmpz@gmail.com - please send it to me for tests. Most probably - broken/non-standard tags. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason long press and then send failed to show share sheet for the failing track (it was working for other files, I checked). I had to send it to you from file manager.

acannan Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Hi, I had the same issue and I was able to fix mine, so there's a chance it might work for you. For your Cream album, check if there is a .cue file in the corresponding folder. If there is, delete it. Let me know if this works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have other albums which have cue files which are detected fine. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 PA does not need CUE files for properly tagged albums, so including them in the folder can cause the songs to be shown as their CUE-generated versions (which won't have the same metadata) instead of using the actual files with their parsed tags.

Andre Hmm, Thanks for the info. I have a couple of other FLAC albums with CUE files which work fine though. Thanks for helping, will keep this in mind for the future.

CUE files are needed if you have one long audio file for a whole album which you want to break up into smaller chunks with their own song title/artist/etc, but you don't need a CUE file for a single song file that is already properly tagged.
