Vortexbox - Problem after update

Yesterday I've updated my Vortexbox and after reboot it did not get up any more. It seemed to be a Kernel problem after update, so I connected a monitor and a keyboard to check the issue. With the new Kernel it started somehow but wrote a lot of error messages and had no network connection. I rebooted again, chose the previous kernel and it started normal. So I reinstalled the new Kernel with:

yum reinstall kernel

Or if you want to reinstall a certain kernel version

yum reinstall kernel-PAE-3.2.10-3*

The newest one was listed to be reinstalled, I accepted to download with Yes. After it finished it booted normal to the new Kernel (3.2.10-3.fc16.i686).

Bliss - Untagged files

I pretty much like the new function for editing Tags manually. I think in the current version it's even a bit better but I haven't updated yet. When going to the "Untagged files" tab you get a list where you see the albums listed. With the button "show tags" you get a list where matching Tags are suggested.

You can now edit the Tags before applying them. In my example the title and track number of song 2 and 3 were not found. I just clicked in the field copied the title from the filename and selected "Tag files". When the files are tagged, the entry disappears from the page.

Short description of Bliss HQ

First of all you have to select the directory where your music is located with the "settings" link.
Then you can apply the rules which should be applied to your library:

Cover Art
    Add and change cover art
    Resize cover art

Files and folders
    Organize files

Tags
    Fill in missing information
    Organize genres
    Add ID3v1/2 tags to MP3s
   
The selected rule now can be configured. E.g. The size of cover art which should be downloaded,... Just have a look at it its very intuitive to configure.
After selecting the rules you have to hit "Apply Rule" to start. Bliss now starts scanning the selected folder and applies fixes automatically when possible, or displays the uncompliance and you need to interact to choose the right e.g. Genre.

Bliss HQ on Vortexbox

I installed Bliss on my Vortexbox using the Install Option on the "Vortexbox Upgrade" page.
The installation takes only a few minutes. After it is finished and you refresh the website, you will see the "bliss" icon on the left side. When clicking on it you will get directly to the bliss webinterface. Bliss HQ is a very powerfull tool to correct the tag information of you music. In the newest version the tool also can fix untagged songs using the acoustic fingerprint of the song. Information are taken from the MusicBrainz database. With the default free installation you have 100 fixes for free.
