Bug Description

Hello! I realized a strange behavior of flac files when they are added to library. If I have a flac file with tags not in the library and I drag&drop it to a deck, it's all ok. Then I copy that file in the library folder and I scan it. If now I load that track to a deck from the library:
-Tag info is not shown. Song title is filled with filename. If not in database, bpm is always 0 (bpm tag is ignored and pitch slider does not change the value).
-Current / total time info is always 00:00.00.
-There is no bar showing playback position on the full waveform view.
-No cue / loop indicators on the current playback waveform view.

Moreover, in the library list view, just artist field shows correct tag info. All other fields are blank and duration is 0:00

I run Mixxx 1.9.0 x64 on a Intel Core2Duo E7200 with Windows 7 x64 Professional.

I hope it helps! Byeee.

Reading of metadata has been reworked for all file types using TagLib. FLAC files support both VorbisComments (preferred) and ID3v2 tags.

I don't think that this bug is still relevant, neither for version 1.12 nor for the new SoundSource stuff on master.
