Hello.

So, I've got, probably, quite complicated issue with 'comment' field of mp3 files.

Due to being a DJ, I'm trying to keep all my tracks organized and one of the part is keeping track's key and BPM values in 'Comment' field. These values are being written in that field by 'Mixed In Key' software, but it is not the reason.

So, when a new file was analyzed and bpm with key values written into 'comment' field, Windows Explorer don't show it.

I checked analyzed file by other softwares like Mp3tag and Traktor 2 and they show that comment.

There are two ways to make that value being shown in Windows Explorer, that I managed to find:

1) Copy-paste the file somewhere else and then move it back;

2) Going into file properties and writing value manually, saving it.

Rebooting, mashing 'refresh' button do not help.

Obviously, when it's matter of 1-2 files, I'm okay with doing it, but when it comes to bunch of files, it becomes quite annoying.

Any ideas why is it happening and how to fix this?

Thanks!

That field is not a default column.  Do you have it checked in Details view?  Right-click a column header in Details view or use Alt-V A (apparently) to add columns.  Heh.  Then there is a different UI depending on how you opened that dialog.  More... for the right-click method  Choose columns... for the View, Add columns method.  YMMV.  Who knew?
