Does Cross DJ have the ability to read the bpm key to a few decimal places? Mixed in key is do 2 decimal places, but Cross is reading the files as 126.00 etc when it really is 126.29 etc

:?: :?: :?: take a file that has been anyalised,, that has a decimal pt reading other than 00 and reload the tag ,,if it rounds it to 00 ,, then if that not what you want then anylise the song and see if the bpm comes back to the original value,, for what ever reason when you reload the tag it rounds it off :idea:

When you say reload the tag is that an option in Cross DJ or something external?

I have tried using mixmeister bpm analyzer as well and verify the output is a decimal as well, but Cross is still puting .00 after the bpm for some reason.

The iD3 BPM field has no decimal. Any tagger adding decimal in this field is wrong.
Cross stores its own BPM is a proprietary field with decimals, but can't read third party apps values that may have decimals...

Ok thanks for the clarification. If I run the music through Cross will it overwrite the bpm field that the mixed in key wrote or will it save that one and update only its proprietary field? Also any way to just scan an entire folder with Cross DJ to scan the bpm if that's the case or do I have to load in each file as if I were playing it?

If a value is present in the iD3 BPM field, Cross will read it and not reanalyze the track.

If no BPM, Cross will trigger a BPM/BeatGrid analysis at load in a
Player.

You can also manually trigger this analysis by right clicking the track in the Cross Collection track list and choosing the dedicated item.

If writing in tags is enabled (see Cross preferences), Cross will save the analysis result both in the iD3 standard BPM field and its own field.

:cool: if you have a track that is know not to have a bpm at 00 decimal and you anylise it and it not to proper bpm ,,then you have a problem,,,, in the same right click you use to anylise a track with there is a reload tags selection ,, i found thet using this zeros the decimal pt,, where as the anylise track will give proper bpm with decimals :cool:
