Why is MM slower on an SSD?

A few months ago I used a gift certificate to splurge on a very large and fast SSD (Samsung) to use for my music library. I did a fresh install of MM and placed the program, the library and all of my music on the SSD. Much to my disappointment, MM appears to run noticeably slower on that drive, howe...

Re: Any Wikipedia based Taggers?

A follow-up to this discussion. Would DBPedia (http://blog.dbpedia.org/) be a way to access structured music information from Wikipedia? According to their Ontology (http://mappings.dbpedia.org/server/ontology/classes/), concepts such as Albums, Artists, Songs, etc. should be directly available. For...

Any Wikipedia based Taggers?

It seems like I use Wikipedia more and more for completing/checking/updating my tags. It is an excellent source for data such as a 'original date', label and writers (composer). To my mind it is also the best and most consistent source for data out there on genre (even if it is still far from perfec...

Re: Why the long pause before playing songs

Likely you're loading the whole list in the Now Playing (again) and this takes a bit due to database access for so many files. If the files are already in the Now Playing you start playback from the Now Playing. Thanks Lowlander, that makes sense. Is there any way to avoid this? Why does it need to...

Why the long pause before playing songs

If I browse one of the top levels of the MM hierarchy (say, Album, Genre or Artist), MM will display essentially all of my music (> 50K songs) on both the main browser window as well as the 'now playing' list. This works fine and the performance is great. If I click on any of these very many songs o...

Re: Lyricator v1.1.3 (2014-01-18)

Can we disable lyric infos like where it taken from, song name etc.? Hi BerkBulgan - if the lyrics information bothers you too much, there is a quick way to fix it. Just use the RegExp Search & Replace script. Specifically, just select all songs and use preset #123 'Remove the end of <Into Fiel...

Re: Random Singles Needing Artwork

The way I handled this was to ensure all singles were associated with a specific album (even if that was the only song I had from that album). There are many tools out there (scripts and otherwise) to find out the album where a song was released. Once I had all song associated with an album/single t...

Best script for filling in composer field?

I was wondering what people use for filling in songs with a missing composer field... I know of great scripts out there for 'album art', 'lyrics', 'genre', 'year' and so on. How about composers? I've had some limited success with the musicbrainz NGS, but it doesn't seem to work for too many songs an...

Re: Earliest Release Date v4.0.0 (2014-01-13)

Hi wxdude - one more clue to what is generating the error. It seems like titles that have quotation marks (i.e. " ) are causing the error. I am not sure if this is the only case when the error occurs, but if I take a title that works fine and add a quotation mark, I can get the error consistent...

Thank you very much for this script. I've been able to successfully install it and run it for hundreds of tracks. It seems to work great! I continue to run into an annoying error with regular frequency and at seemingly random times, however. I select small batches of songs to process (~50-60) and ev...

Re: MonkeyMatch 0.5.56 - Find & Fix Similar Spelling (7/7/13

As for that list, if you could somehow produce a list - just a small one to get me started - then I'll look into it. I have to let my brain spin on it for a while - how to work it into the program, how to work it into the process, how to update it, maybe how to get a community list going so nobody ...
