The REM lines added during the conversion should be ignored by any app processing the generated CUE file. Compare the TITLE and PERFORMER generated for each track to the info from the label file. Take note of how the REM metas are used to fill in for missing elements in the label text. Notice how the pre-gap is applied to every track. The same will be true of a post-gap, if specified. |
General Notes The label text for title and performer must appear in the order "PERFORMER (TITLE)". Either component can be missing, but what you cannot have is "(TITLE) PERFORMER". If the REM metas for title, performer and file are not supplied, then they will be set to UNKNOWN TITLE, UNKNOWN PERFORMER and UNKNOWN.FILE, respectively. |
