BPMer1.1.12

Really nice piece of software - I like it! Unfortunately it looks it screws up special chars on updating the ID3 Tag of an mp3 file. All my german 'umlauts' like ü ö ä etc are gone - not nice.. and I don't understand what action the option 'Export to iTunes' does.. seems to export in anycase..

This software bills itself as functional, but is anything but. It will leave your id3 tags a mess, and it won't even correctly add BPM data to all of the files it damages. Don't even think about looking for a support forum, FAQ or list of common problems, either... Because there aren't any. Don't even hope that they'll respond to your e-mails. It didn't happen for me, and there's nothing to suggest it will happen for anyone else. I'd say use Windows via Parallels and run MixMeister for a better solution. Anything but this. 1) Some files had their artist, album, title or genre field jumbled up (e.g. Android would become something like nArdiod). Sometimes it was all four fields, sometimes it was one. It's been a month or two and I'm still finding these occasionally. 2) Some files that had BPM data previously were left with no BPM data at all. 3) Demo version over-writes comments in your tags saying that the BPM was determined by BPMer, and the pro version neglects to remove these. I hope you don't keep anything interesting in your comment tags if you use the demo version. 4) The log file is almost entirely useless. BPMer told me there were errors but the log only had a list of every file scanned followed by "updated", "up-to-date" or "filtered due to genre". No error messages to be found. This is not the software you're looking for.

Great S/W that works as advertised and I would buy it but: v116 still kills artwork.

Version 1.1.5 still destroys the cover pictures that were stored within my MP3 files! PLEASE fix that. It's unuseable for me with such a bug. Thank you.

The 1.1.1. solved my problems with tags. Great software!

Very promising App... but this version (1.0 and 1.1) was destroying the cover pictures that were stored within my MP3 files...

Much better than tapping as with my current app, and is waaay faster. Good job Developer! Thought I found a bug with regards to ID3 tag versions while testing. Waiting for developer to respond. Otherwise, Ill give it a four-star overall because It could be better in some respects. For instance, a short test revealed different BPM's for the same song consecutively tested. Stability? Dont know. I didnt thoroughly test it on large playlists, or more than one playlist. Pricing is relative. Is any app this simple worth $19 +VAT? Its all relative. Others cannot due without it. Ease of use gets a 5 (so far).
