Thanks very much for fixing
and for fb2k also   

I will wait for 1.3.4.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can i give you 1 suggestion and 2 requests in this location?:


R1 "rescue the pregap length":
If i rip as "generate multi-track files" ==> a pregap (if exists) will be documented in the embedded cuesheet ==> CUETools can test the ripped cd in AccurateRip, later (after ripping). (This processes fine, CUETools writes (if wanted) the results as metadata in coresponding Tags: Fantastic! It runs for "generate multi-track files" also  )

But if i rip as "convert each track to an individual file" than no pregap is writen in a Log File or in the flac files. The pregap information is lost and CUETools could not test AccurateRip, if a pregap exists

Hence i think fb2k should write a log file for rescue the length of an existing pregap, in the folder of the generated flac files.
(It would be nice to have a Log file "a standard (that comes from EAC)" in fb2k also.)

In the case of "generate multi-track files", the log file could be written in a tag in the generated flac file.
(..., if the Log File contains more information, e.g.: Error state of each ripped track, Date & Time of ripping, AccurateRip count of each track, Disc- or AccurateRip-ID, ...)


S1 "naming":
"generate multi-track files" should better be named as "generate a multi-track file" (instead of "files"), because it creates only 1 file!


R2 "rescue the postgap lengths":
When you rip, the pause between 2 tracks will be appended at the end of the 1. track. Please write the length of this pause in a new tag "POSTGAP" in the 1. track (the track to which the pause is appended). This would be fine, since this information (that is a important e.g. for classical CDs) could be rescued by this way (instead of estimation it later with less or more effort). (And it is an advantage over EAC, also).


If this this location is not suitalble, which is good for my suggestion and requests?

Thank you very much for fixing: The error is away

But the Information from "Information lookup" (freedb, MusicBrainz) isn't available anymore.

Before bug fixing it was in the cuesheet in "Title", etc.; after bug fixing "Title" and other Metadate are not stored in the cuesheet. (The cuesheet is realy simple now  ).

Please store the Metadata from "Information lookup" in the tags of the generated flac-file.

My suggestion and the 2 requests from above, i've posted here:

Could not reprod this bug locally, sorry. Everything appears stored, I must be missing some additional information how to produce this bug.

Only way I can lose the information is by using a Converter preset where metadata transfer option is disabled in the Other-section. But then it's not a bug but behaving as requested.
