MusicIP Tagger 2.0 - Updated 28/07/2012

[trixmoto]

I haven't stated anything, no. But if it's not working then I think me stating it doesn't really help

[Lowlander]

Are you saying it is expected that it doesn't work or can I help troubleshoot why it isn't working for me?

[trixmoto]

Well it sounds like the server which the script requests information from isn't working, so there's probably not much that can be done, no.

[Lowlander]

Okay, that's sad to hear.

MusicIP Tagger 1.9 doesn't tag artist, don't know if caused by the server or the add-on.

MusicIP Tagger is/was really useful to clean up.

I found MusicBrainz NGS + AcoustId Tagger viewtopic.php?f=2&t=64124
I didn't read about experiences on MM4, and it uses an external code for tagging.

I'm unsure and hope this will be solved improve...?

Improvement is also needed in:
- Manually overwrite proposed tags before applying
- Apply settings also on tracks already scanned before applying

Thanks for the great contributions!

Just to be clear - the external executable is only used if you want the additional tags written to the file that MM cannot write. The script functions just like any other MM tagging script if you turn off writetag in the options. If you leave it on then you get embedded custom tags for musicbrainz ids and acoustids. The same executable could be used to embed PUIDs as well.

If you try it let me know how it works in MM4 - I don't use MM4 but I read about the install changes and tried to stick to them except that the install.ini might need to be changed, not sure.

I really like MusicIP Tagger, it helped me a lot on my huge library that was for the longest time just mashed together. Is this addon still worked on? I noticed for a while now that it always tries to tag the Track # Field as 0. Not sure if this is a server side issue, or if this is something with the Tagger Addon? Would be great if this project was continued

I've not stopped developing it as such, I just haven't had any suggestions for enhancements, or any bug reports that I'm aware of.

Trixmoto, you are a badass coder and I've already donated to you!

I Was using this plugin today and i found these bugs:

- Track title never updates, even if it's missing. Yes the "Update Track Title?" was checked in settings.

- Artist never updates, even if it's missing. Yes the "Update track artist?" was checked in settings.

- As the previous posted before you had said, Track # ALWAYS updates to 0. Is this a bug?

- I don't think anything updates other than the album and the track # (track # always updates to 0)


Willing to donate another $5 when these bugs are fixed

Ditto!... without reposting verbatim... this is how my experience has been with this add on, but it used to work... something changed at Amazon?

I've added these to my list, I'll see what I can do. Probably changes to the service provider, yes.

So I just installed Mediamonkey and the MusicIP extension. I'll be using this primarily for my Squeezebox and the Spicefly Sugarcube plugin. So my issue is that I have hundreds of tracks deemed "unanalyzable" by MusicIP. Is there any way I can prevent this from happening? I don't need the artist/album/genre tags, just the part that lets my tracks be "mixable" by Sugarcube. Any suggestions?

Thanks very much in advance.

Your unanalyzable tracks are probably WMA, or their names contain diacritics. I've noticed in my own collection that MusicIP doesn't really like that

[Morbeas]

No, my entire collection is 100% FLAC and the names of the tracks in question do not contain diacritics.

Any other suggestions?

[bakker_be]

Sorry, no other idea's. I've just checked again, and the only files I have with that status are wma, or their names contain some kind of non-standard character (there are names in Cyrillic, classical composer Dvořák, some french titles, ...)
Release date can't be an issue, as I've got some really recent discs in there.
In your place I'd try to first convert some of those files back to WAV and reencode them to FLAC. I've had to do that with some of my older FLAC-rips to get them to analyze.
