Qobuz Download Track Listing

Posted by: Camlan on 13 January 2017

Please help folks, I am tearing my hair, what there is left of it, out here.

Downloaded a Rachel Podger Vivaldi album from Qobuz and whatever I do I cannot get the track order right. Downloaded to Mac and I have Metadatics so have tried everything in the tagging line. It looks perfect on Metadatics, 2 discs 1 of 18 and 2 of 19 but it still won't download to Unitiserve right. I have tried taking out the track numbering totally, numbering 1-37 on 1 disc and have run out of ideas.

Any thoughts? Please!

The tracks have different track artist tags because I have altered them to be that way. Doing that has always had the effect of 'creating' separate albums on my Unitiserve and on many occasion I have seen say 5 separate albums shown for the one disc because some of the meta data differs where, for example, there are different soloists on some tracks, it's an easy sort with metadatics though. I have tried the 1/1 and 1/19 solution and it didn't work though God alone knows why, it has worked for me before. I have asked Qobuz support for their comments because I don't know whether the download is set to be one 'album' and the track listing is wrong or whether it's meant to be two and it's not working properly. I'll relay any worthwhile answer.

What I don't understand in all of this is that a few months ago I downloaded the complete Oiseau Lyre 50 album Baroque boxset from Qobuz (another ridiculous bargain) expecting hours of data editing and it was perfect.

Anyway, its all Ok now albeit with a workaround.

That Baroque boxset sounds great, but it doesn't seem to be there - if it still is, please let me know.

If you search Baroque Era you will find it but only Volume 1, Volume 2 appears to have disappeared. Moreover, typically with Qobuz, it is now £50+. I paid 19.98 Euros (£16 at the time) in early 2015 for the both which for 50 CDs is excellent.

You need to keep an eye on Qobuz because their pricing is fluid to say the least. I bet the Brautigam set won't be cheap for long.
