I am, however, almost ready to get a number of bug fixes out in a 0.7.2 release in the next couple days. Life has simply been too full for me to withdraw, buckle down and finish 0.8 when 0.7 does most of what I require. :-) John — sorry, no, no date on a new/major feature release (0.8).

But when I sync this file to an iPhone and enable the parental control in the iPhone not to display "explicit" files the tag is ignored and the file is still visible ...

I will check the Canadian ratings before I release the next update. Unfortunately I've been delayed a lot longer than I expected, but hopefully before too long... Thanks for the comment, Jeremy.

It is only necessary to strip the free space from the meta data. This can be done by passing AtomicParsley the --freefree flag. JP So, in my experience it is not necessary to strip out all metadata.

But for the ratings - is there a way you could add the rating for 'Not Rated' like on some of the short films and some movies, they are rated 'NR' which obviously means not rated. and i rip my own shortfilms and i really would like that. Thanks so much, i love your app and use it ALL the time. hopefully you could add that rating, thanks. Well this is really off this topic but i didn’t know how to contact you.

I have a feature request which I don't think would be that hard to implement. I want to see Lostify go to epguides.com and automatically get information needed to correctly tag episodes. The information for Lost can for example be found on http://www.epguides.com/lost . This information is very streamlined for every show so this is theoretically quite possible. This would be a great timesaver when batch tagging episodes and make lostify blow the competition out of the water Just my 2 cents.

Maybe I would if Apple would publicly release Cocoa for Windows, but there's a slim-to-none chance of that ever happening. So don't count on it. I know there are a few Windows-based wrappers around Atomic Parsley; maybe you're already aware of them. I can't vouch for any, since I have not tried them: <a href="http://www.textzombie.com/videotag/" rel="nofollow">VideoTag</a>, <a href="http://tvtagger.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">TVTagger</a> (which seems abandoned, replaced by <a href="http://elementaryproductions.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">elementary</a>), and the humble <a href="http://members.verizon.net/pucklock/iPTV/iPodTVShow.html" rel="nofollow">iPodTVShow</a>. One of these ought to help with tagging files, but as for cleaning out corrupt tags... I'm not sure if any of them allow access to AtomicParsley's "--metaEnema" switch, which is what cleans all existing tags out (i.e. what Squeegify does). But if, in exceptional cases, you had to use the Windows version of AtomicParsley on the command line for that, it would not be the toughest thing to do. peterg70: sorry, no, I don’t plan on porting Lostify to Windows.
