Tag Source Discogs Artist + Title does not handle apostrophes in the title (e.g., Eddie Cantor - Ma He's Makin Eyes at Me). I don't know if this is an MP3Tag regex lookup issue or a Discogs issue. Apostrophes in the artist name or album seem to be handled correctly. Release 3.03 is fabulous. I'm gl…

[image] rko31415: Eddie Cantor - Ma He's Makin Eyes at Me If that is the accurate representation of the title then it could be that the correct spelling "Ma He's Makin' Eyes At Me" (with an added apostrophe following "makin") improves the result. Like that the online search in Discogs found t…

Okay fine. I just picked a random one. Here's another one: Earth, Wind & Fire - That's the Way of the World Try this both with title: That's the Way of the World and the Way of the World You'll notice the dramatic difference in results.

Did you read @dano 's reply: [image] Discogs lookup does not return result in case album name contains apostrophe No Bugs You need to try Artist + Title search to see the problem. But the same problem occurs on the Advanced Search on the discogs website, so it is not a bug…

There doesn't appear to be an ''advanced search'' in discogs.com ... the instructions tell you to start typing and the option will appear, but it didn't for me. The straightforward search for Earth, Wind & Fire - That's the Way of the World works fine with their basic search (1151 hits vs. 32 for mp…

Okay, advanced search on discogs came up with 111 hits for the example in my earlier post. I'd be okay with 100 hits as in my example.

Only 32 hits also on discogs web search: https://www.discogs.com/search/?type=release&artist=Earth%2C+Wind+%26+Fire&track=That%27s+the+Way+of+the+World 0 hits for the first example: https://www.discogs.com/search/?type=release&artist=Eddie+Cantor&track=Ma+He%27s+Makin+Eyes+at+Me The problem lie…

You are right about omitting the apostrophes. How's about an option to automatically strip out apostrophes in the MP3Tag Tag Sources lookup?

What you can already do is edit the Discogs Artist + Title.src file in %APPDATA%\Mp3tag\data\sources and change the [Searchby] line to [SearchBy]=Artist||$if2(%albumartist%,%artist%)||&artist=%s||Title||$replace(%title%,'',)||&track=%s

[image] rko31415: Earth, Wind & Fire - That's the Way of the World Your solution works sometimes, but not for the example above. Try using your regex line with That's the Way of the World (32 hits) vs.the Way of the World (100 hits).
