Teilchenbeschleuniger Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 What about a bpm counter function? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 What about one? Files sometimes contain that info I believe - are you asking for some way to display it as part of the file-metadata line for example? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6b6561 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I have TBPM set for all tracks in my library... and I just realized that I have basically never used it... I have created some playlists for running, tracks at a particular BPM, but this was done in excel... filtered out tracks with the right BPM and then picked tracks for the playlists. (One time effort, to lazy to create new lists) I think that some versions of Samsungs default players use BPM and this let's you pick "mood" based on tempo. At the moment TBPM isn't at all visible in the GUI... logical steps would be to first add TBPM to the Poweramp internal DB and display the value on the tags information page. Once this is open, then the can of worms is opened and there will be requests for BPM category, sort on category... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I don't think BPM is even read and saved into the database - along with tons of other more esoteric tags. It's not shown in Info/Tags anyway. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w3wilkes Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Yes, BPM would be great to support. I too have BPM populated in all my music. It would be great if this could be added as an additional filter for playing shuffled genre(s) for exactly the reason @6b6561 says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6b6561 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I think the DJ community might also be interested in BPM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Where would anyone expect this to be shown - in metadata? Or would it involve some new Category or sorting method? The first step would be to actually read the tag (if present) and save it in the database though - which would mean an update the the DB format and the scanner, plus a Full Rescan. Maybe it could then become an optional %bpm% field in the metadata tag, as per the recent discussion on customisable display lines? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Poweramp have Replay Gain scanner planned short term. I guess, we can do bpm scanning as well and probably scan for other track statistics, as we'll process all tracks for Replay Gain anyway. Thanks for the request!
