Web Script for Mp3tag to tag MP3s with data from Beatport.

[http://code.google.com/p/beatport-script-f.../downloads/list](http://code.google.com/p/beatport-script-for-mp3tag/downloads/list)

If you have any feedback shoot it through, I'm happy to update the script.

download the files from post #1 and unpack them to the mp3tag folder under data/sources.  
Restart mp3tag - the files should appear in the menu Tag Sources

You should change the search string to:  
**[SearchBy]=$repl(%artist% %album%,&, )**

Because everything after a **&** symbol is ignored in api search

and:

There are releases without a proper album cover. Instead, the logo of the label is presented.  
These releases have **ref="label"** instead of **ref="release"** at the image url. This leads to a failor of the script. The script jumps to the first recommendation link at the bottom of the page (Users Also Bought) which has **ref="release"** at the image, writes all data of this image and gets an error when it searches for the track (findline "\<track")

examples for releases without proper cover image:  
[http://www.beatport.com/release/i-need-u-remixes/14207](http://www.beatport.com/release/i-need-u-remixes/14207)  
[http://api.beatport.com/catalog/releases/d...ml&id=14207](http://api.beatport.com/catalog/releases/detail?v=1.0&format=xml&id=14207)

[http://www.beatport.com/release/depth-buffering/205678](http://www.beatport.com/release/depth-buffering/205678)  
[http://api.beatport.com/catalog/releases/d...l&id=205678](http://api.beatport.com/catalog/releases/detail?v=1.0&format=xml&id=205678)

I think the easiest solution for the script is to replace  
**findline "width="60" height="60" ref="release""**  
with  
**findline "width="60" height="60" ref=""**
