I don't speak German but translate this.

Go to the install directory of your mp3tag and place the files here.

..\Mp3tag\data\sources

Usually you get to the following directory when you type %AppData% in the address bar of Windows Explorer:
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming
There you should find the subfolder
\Mp3tag\data\sources

GERMAN:
Normalerweise gelangst du zu folgendem Verzeichnis, wenn du %AppData% in die Adressleiste von Windows Explorer eingibst:
C:\Benutzer\DEINBENUTZERNAME\AppData\Roaming\

Der relevante Unterordner:
\Mp3tag\data\sources

Hi I just wanted to say thanks, I find it extremelly useful.

I'm having a problem with the year and date of some releases, they are not being correctly retrieved from beatport. For example Beatport Release ID 2658839.

stevehero · November 17, 2023, 7:21pm

Thanks for letting me know. It appears that there's a key new_release_date which is the correct one it seems resulting in the date 2019-08-09.

Is this what you mean?

Can you locally test this for me by editing all the Beatport by &stevehero v6*.inc files and replacing publish_date with new_release_date to see if that solves the issue.

If so, I'll update the scripts.

Welcome to the forum!

gambit · November 17, 2023, 10:55pm

Hi! Yes that's what I meant, thanks! Replacing those lines fixed the actual date stored in the ID3 tag, but the date is still different in the intermediate window where all the releases matching the search terms are shown.

Based on your comment, I also tried to change the lines
json_select "new_release_date" # RELEASED
#RegexpReplace "T\d+:\d+:\d+" ""
SayRest
Say "|"

But I only got a blank column.

stevehero · November 17, 2023, 11:11pm

Leave that section in the [ParserScriptIndex]=... alone.

Keep this as it was:

json_select "release_date" # RELEASED
RegexpReplace "T\d+:\d+:\d+" ""
SayRest
Say "|"

Only touch the code below the [ParserScriptAlbum]=... line.

If you can test this for a while and get back to me. I'll update the scripts then. Thanks for reporting.

Hi!
Thank you stevehero, your work is really appreciated.
When I use the actual "RELEASE Search by (Album)Artist + Release" I never get the Artwork. I always have to do a second search for the Artwork. In a previous version this has been different.
Does this problem also occurs to other uses or did I do something wrong?

gambit · December 5, 2023, 3:01am

Hi Steve!

I've been using the scripts with the "new_release_date" modification for the last two weeks, I think I've tagged around 100 songs and haven't found any more issues with dates so far, so thanks for taking the time to investigate! I guess you can update the scripts now.

stevehero · January 1, 2024, 9:03pm

Link to release?

I'll update the starting post. Thanks for reporting. Just one of those pesky bugs!!

stevehero · January 1, 2024, 9:04pm

v6.005 2024.01.01

FIX: Wrong release date was grabbed. Now using new_release_date that uses the correct date.

djepeto · January 10, 2024, 3:01am

Hi Steve!
I found wrong release date in the List of search results for https://www.beatport.com/release/releases/350469
...if I use any "Release search by" option then I can see 2011-03-28. However, release is from 1983.

Of course, script works and I get correct release date after using the script - 1983.

I have seen this several time for some old releases (yrs 2000-2010) before last script update. So it's not new bug and I could say it's not urgent for repairing.

...or link
list of search result 2007-02-05
release page 2007-02-26

or link
list of search result 2017-06-30
release page 2007-07-03

stevehero · January 24, 2024, 11:14pm

Not sure how to fix this.

For this example, the select_json function is selecting the right one with json_select "release_date"

Beatports json data is wrong.

"available_worldwide":0,
"catalog_number":"732183260062",
"create_date":"2017-10-05T04:25:50",
"encoded_date":"2017-10-04T22:25:50",
"exclusive":0,
"label_manager":"travis kirschbaum",
"publish_date":"2017-06-30T00:00:00",
"release_date":"2017-06-30T00:00:00",
"release_id":2127218,

Hi, first I wanted to thank you for the awesome script, it has helped me a lot fixing my library...

I have one question

Can the columns in the Tag Sources screen be permanently rearranged? I noticed you can drag them but they will reset the next time you do a search.

Thanks!

P.unkt · February 28, 2024, 7:05pm

@HHH

Sorting is done in line 41 in the file "Beatport by &stevehero v6_Release Search.inc"

You also have to comment out unwanted columns or change their order, beginning in line 75 (json_select "exclusive" # EXCLUSIVE).

HHH · February 28, 2024, 7:12pm

Thank you!

I found it,

I want Track Name to be the first followed by % ↓ ARTIST/S% and % ↓ RELEASED%

But I don't see Track name there, which one would it be?

Thanks again for the quick reply

P.unkt · February 28, 2024, 7:19pm

In this case it's
"Beatport by &stevehero v6_Track Search.inc" you have to edit.

HHH · February 28, 2024, 7:30pm

Got it working!

Thanks again

stevehero · March 10, 2024, 12:19am

Finally fixed my code to auto run a Web Source Script from outside Mp3tag. (Sort of like automatic tagging)

Just thought I'd make people aware it exists.

HHH · March 10, 2024, 2:35am

Beatport Record Label

How can I get the Record Label Tag Field?
When doing the search I can see the field

Example

But on the following screen I can't see Record Label even scrolling all the way to the bottom

is there a way to add this field so it gets updated when doing the tag source search??

Thanks!

Scroll down. It's under publisher.
