A question about cue files

[RiedRied]

( build-939-bundle-play on Samsung S9, data on SD-card, Library > Scanner > Parse CUE Files enabled )

$ ls
'Sportpaleis Antwerpen.cue'  'Sportpaleis Antwerpen.mp3'
'Sportpaleis Antwerpen.jpg'

$ cat Sportpaleis\ Antwerpen.cue
performer "Mark Knopfler"
title "Sportpaleis Antwerpen"
file "Sportpaleis Antwerpen.mp3" mp3
  track 1 audio
    performer "Mark Knopfler"
    title "What It Is"
    index 01 00:00
  track 2 audio
    performer "Mark Knopfler"
    title "Corned Beef City"
    index 01 06:17

Does anybody see the problem with this cue-file ? Poweramp doesn't seem to recognize it as such.

I assume the $ commands are not actually part of the CUE file?

Only thing that comes to mind is the case of the cue syntax, cue files shouldn't be case sensitive. I would try to rewrite the cue as uppercase and see if that would help.

Correct, this was just the console log.

Found it : I had used an abbreviated time format "index 01 00:00", it needs another ":00", this one here works :

performer "Dire Straits"
title "Live In New York"
file "Dire Straits - 1992 - LIVE in New York.aac" aac
  track 1 audio
    performer "Dire Straits"
    title "Calling Elvis"
    index 01 00:00:00
  track 2 audio
    performer "Dire Straits"
    title "Walk of Life"
    index 01 12:38:00

@RiedRied Great. I did wonder about that - as without a frame value the track accuracy would seem a bit coarse - but I didn't know that would push it completely out of spec.
