Scorpion Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 As you can see in the screenshots, song is not showing any tags other than file name for newly added songs. The song shown in the screenshot has full tags. No problem with the older songs. This only happens after adding new songs.

andrewilley Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 It is most likely caused by PA seeing the new filename before the file has finished being written to storage (so it logs the filename at the point it spots it, but at time it sees no tags). Try a Full Rescan (in Settings > Library) after all files have been finished and see if that helps. How are you writing the new files, with a file explorer app or USB transfer, or using some kind of auto-syncing software? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 @andrewilley I'm using file Explorer. Never faced this kind of issue in the previous versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 What happened when you tried a Full Rescan? If that works, try turning PA's Auto-Scan mode off, and only then try to do a rescan manually once you have finished with your copying tasks.

Scorpion Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 @andrewilley thank you so much man. Full rescan solved this problem. (by the way I'm a long time Poweramp user, never faced this kind of issue before. In the previous builds songs tags were recognising as soon as I move a new song to my selected folder. Do I need to do a full rescan everytime I add a new song????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, a regular 'simple' Rescan (in the three-dots menu at the top of any Library view) should be sufficient to find new music. Auto-scan should work fine too, but if for any reason it tries to scan before a filename has completed writing to storage, that filename will get added to the music database, but it will continue to be treated as not having any tags until you do a Full Rescan.
