Couple of quick queries if you or anyone would kindly help please?
Year field: just want this in the format, 'YYYY', without affecting RELEASTIME. I tried tweaking, but then I don't get any values in said field?
I've made all the tweaks to the 'artist' script - have it working well, how can you use the same settings etc. for the others - can you duplicate them across somehow?
Also, something stange must be going on at beatport earlier. Title of tracks was appearing in Comments field, even though comments field set to disable in the script. And track number was appearing in the Title field?
Maybe I misspoke, but I meant not to add a MIXARTIST in the field of ALBUMARTIST, but was present in the tags separately
Example as is : Track
ALBUMARTIST : Tiff Lacey, Chris Reece, Alexander Popov, Feel, Incognet, Happy Paul, Jeysound
ARTIST : Tiff Lacey, Alexander Popov, Feel
MIXARTIST : Chris Reece
as I would have liked: Track
ALBUMARTIST : Tiff Lacey, Alexander Popov, Feel
ARTIST : Tiff Lacey, Alexander Popov, Feel
MIXARTIST : Chris Reece
thanks for the work and the support.
Sorry for a nb question, but i just extracted the files in the source folder, restarted mp3tag (v2.96), and i still cant use the pluggin: it doesnt show in the ui and the shortcuts dont work. Is anything wrong with that new version?
Also, I am struggling to understand what the different scripts do, could you please explain what
Welcome to the forum. In the starting post there's a link to show how to install them.
For the keyboard shortcuts you need to press the Alt key then the S key, then the letter A like the example below.
You'll see the scripts shortcuts from the underlined text like so:
As far as what each script does it's fairly self explanatory from the starting post. If the script has direct in the title then it's when you have already gotten the WWW tag. Then there's artwork, release (for albums) and single (these are for when you only download a single track from a release).
Since yesterday, I get many 500: Internal server Error, when attempting to tag a bunch of tracks. This happens irrespective of the type of Script (Release, Artist+Title, Title, ...), and randomly (some tracks can be found, others can't)
Did Beatport change something recently or is it just me?
It's real. I've tried to pinpoint exactly what queries cause this 500 since some searches will work while others won't. At first I thought that mp3tag will return 500 if there are more than one word in the query, i.e. queries by Album such as "Anything Goes" will fail every time, while "Anything" will always return results.
But then I tried other words such as "Uniformity" and "Society" and they were failing as well, while the two-word queries "FD CTRL" and "Woo York" were working. It seems arbitrary.
The only good news is that tagging via WWW(URL) works without fail.
Then it's not a problem with the script as it uses the classic search url to parse the info you see in the first UI. When beatport fixes the problem, this issue will be resolved.
