Auto-tag: ability to look up original date of compilation tracks [#21265]

Post by MattTown »

Could I tack a request onto this please?

When ripping compilations I also spend a bunch of time researching the earliest original album that the songs were released on and putting that into the Original Album field.

If MM is able to do the hard work of looking up Original Album, would it be possible to have an option - for compilations - to have that value stored into the Original Album field? That would be awesome!

Cheers

Matt

Thanks for the suggestion--I think it's a great idea! I've split this suggestion from the original thread so that it doesn't get lost.
