[WS] Discogs Album search + VA

Development Web Sources Scripts

Didn't work for me... still pulling up blank data.

102

One more update on Discogs. :slight_smile:
Change all "gotoline 2" to "gotoline 3".

[WS] Discogs (pone mod)
103

I would like to thank everyone who works on these scripts, they are such a huge time-saver. I had modified the discogs_Release_ID script once before to add credits and notes, however with the new change, I'm completely lost.

How can I fix the current "discogs_Release_ID_02" to add the fields "Discogs-Credits" and "Discogs-Notes" to my tags?

104

The scripts form discogs_extended_02.zip add these tags so just use the id script from there.

105

Perfect! It worked and we're back up!

106

I'm sorry Dano.
I try the "Search by Artist & Title" from "discogs_extended_02" but data remains empty.
Otherwise, "Search by Release ID" from "discogs_Release_ID_02" works well.

107

Download again, should be good now. :rolleyes:

108

Ok, I'm using "Release ID &extended" now, but would like to make a few changes. When I comment outputs, everything gets screwed up.

I'd like to make these changes:

Remove:
Genre
Style
Discogs_Country
Track Temp
_Length

Add:
Pone's mod for removing " (2)" from the artist, as well as replace "Artist, The" with "The Artist"

I appreciate any help, thank you

edit: To dano's response below:

Thank you so much! You are such a great help!

109

Then I suggest you use the pone script.

To remove fields just add set "field" at the end of the script:

set "Genre"
set "Style"
...

110

If you want to experiment yourself:

this is the command to make "Artist, The" to "The Artist"

regexpreplace "([^>]*), The" "The $1"

and this is the command to make "Artist (1)", "Artist (2)",... to "Artist"

regexpreplace " \(\d\)" ""
regexpreplace " \(\d\d\)" ""

You have to add this lines at different sections in the script: Artitst, Band, Mixartist, Credits, Notes (everywhere where artist names are displayed).
You have to add these lines always somewhere before the "sayrest" command. But I remember it didn't work in ervery position. So i just tried and moved the lines up and down within the sections until i got each section work.

111

Yeah, it works ! :w00t:

Thanks Dano ! :slight_smile:

Hi,

I am using MP3Tag and Discogs Scripts now a very long time.
But something is bothering me.

I am missing in the scripts an option to put the complete Release date into a tag.

On top to the "YEAR" tag it would be great to have also a tag "DATE" with the original release date in numeric format.

I am aware of discogs writing the date "30 Sep 2010"

But in tag a better apporach would be 2010-09-30.

Is it possible that someone could write it in the scripts because I am quite to dumb to do it myself.

113

I've added the full date to my extended script.

114

Thank You dano.

115

Update with a few fixes (including the year tag)

116

hello dano,

thanks so much for this awesome script!
saves so much time and worked flawlessly (till yesterday) :frowning:

I use your discogs-extended script.

It still lists releases from the artist you have chosen.
but as soon as you pick a release it just finds the artwork.
there's an message in the 'album'-line and the rest of the fields stay empty.
I tried a new installation but without success.

would be fantastic if you could check this up.

many thanks in advance!

I have updated the script, please test it.

118

thanks so much, dano!

works perfectly again!

I can not express how much i appreciate your work.

119

thanks for updating :slight_smile:

seems to work fine, except for the field "Publisher". It remains empty.

120

Ah thanks. Another update with the publisher.
