Hi everyone,  
I am te new with mp3Tag. It is what I dreamed of for editing and searching music information.

Lets go now in this topic.  
I went on the source files to see what was wrong with this scripts and Discogs. Most errors just come from a gotoline 1, just replace it by gotoline 2, and sometimes there is trouble with saynextnumber, replace it with sayuntil """. I saw also a trouble with a do while.

I went also to those posts:  
[/t/5171/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/5171/1)  
[/t/5390/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/5390/1)  
[/t/1992/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/1992/1)  
[/t/5275/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/5275/1)

I get some trouble finding artists or albums with accentued characters with the script on this topic. I get more results with the scripts at [/t/1992/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/1992/1) but it doesn't import all tags. In conclusion I updated several scripts.

**\*ext5.src**  
These files are a compilation of both scripts.  
[discogs\_artist\_ext5.src](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/2/21b884cd37ac4cd83a91158a5bf69b4526e73a67.src) (11.4 KB)[discogs\_artiste\_title\_ext5.src](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/8/833427bc191c3b992cbdade52ac060090824ee23.src) (11.5 KB)[discogs\_album\_ext5.src](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/b/bb0ae1a73cd941f053b0f6e6555771f58da3540f.src) (11.5 KB)[discogs\_release\_ext5.src](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/d/d98e1667e0fd95f6b6c39d60b164c5af8626708f.src) (11.2 KB)

- There are no years in the results. I went on discogs to see if we could get different search results. Apparently not, even with the Rest API [http://www.discogs.com/help/api](http://www.discogs.com/help/api).

- I removed the numbers with artist names. Maybe that could be done for other tags with regexpreplace " (\d)" ""

- I added utf-8 support to get better results.

- I added some fields:  
"wwwaudiofile"  
"Comment catalog number" /used by tag&rename

**New \*ext4-original.src files**  
These original src files have been updated and corrected  
[discogs\_album\_ext4\_original.src](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/f/f01a2a6f87b12a823768e9b99ad9e20b6c0992e6.src) (11.3 KB)[discogs\_artist\_ext4\_original.src](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/a/a5bf853d1a478dc07ee6dc9e547aca731acecdd7.src) (11.3 KB)[discogs\_release\_ext4\_original.src](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/7/79224aa52ca3512071706dc1acff131690ca38e2.src) (11.1 KB)

- I added utf-8 support to get better results.

- I added some fields:  
"wwwaudiofile"  
"Comment catalog number" /used by tag&rename

- There is still an error message with artist without releases

**Conclusion**

- mp3tag is great.
- I have waisted time with the do while loop because of a poor documentation
- url encoding function could be a great addition [added]
- parse or urlencode/urldecode for [SearchBy] could be a great addition [added]
- you should use several scripts to find results
- How could I put several pictures via src files ? I couldn't find tag name for multiple covers !!!!

See you
