[WS] Discogs (pone mod)

Hi everyone!
I will anser my self on this, because I have e found a better way to this so that the changes will remain after the scripts are created.

  1. Edit the file
    "%APPDATA%\data\actions\Discogs &Pone#Create &Scripts (after editing the settings mp3 file).mta"

Change
F=Discogs Pone Create ParserScriptAlbum Standard
1=$getenv(mp3tagappdata)\\data\\sources\\Discogs &Pone# Direct by URL (&www).src


To
F=Discogs Pone Create ParserScriptAlbum OrigYear for URL(WWW)
1=$getenv(mp3tagappdata)\\data\\sources\\Discogs &Pone# Direct by URL (&www).src


  1. Copy file
    "%APPDATA%\export\Discogs Pone Create ParserScriptAlbum Standard.mte"
    To
    "%APPDATA%\export\Discogs Pone Create ParserScriptAlbum OrigYear for URL(WWW).mte".

  2. Edit the file
    "%APPDATA%\export\Discogs Pone Create ParserScriptAlbum OrigYear for URL(WWW).mte".
    Change line "'outputto "'$regexp(%year & date%,'.?Year:\s+>(.?)\r\n.',$1)'""
    To "'outputto "ORIGYEAR""
    Change line "#< ## COVER for Master Releases# $if($eql($regexp(%other fields & options%,'.
    ?download cover artwork\s+>(.?)\r\n.',$1),yes),"
    To "#< ## COVER for Master Releases# $if($eql($regexp(%other fields & options%,'.?download cover artwork for Master Release\s+>(.?)\r\n.*',$1),yes),"

  3. Edit the file
    "%APPDATA%\export\Discogs Pone Create Direct by URL (WWW).mte"
    Change line "[SearchBy]=$lower($regexp($if2(%'$regexp($regexp(%discogs id & url%,.?Discogs Release URL:\s+>(.?)$.,$1),^$,www)'%,%'$regexp($regexp(%discogs id & url%,.?Discogs Master URL:\s+>(.?)$.,$1),^$,www)'%),^www,http://www,1))"
    To "[SearchBy]=$lower($regexp($if2(%'$regexp($regexp(%discogs id & url%,.?Discogs Master URL:\s+>(.?)$.,$1),^$,www)'%,%'$regexp($regexp(%discogs id & url%,.?Discogs Release URL:\s+>(.?)$.,$1),^$,www)'%),^www,http://www,1))"

  4. Open the file "Discogs Pone 4 Web Script Settings.mp3" with Mp3tag.

  5. Extended Tags


  1. Open "DISCOGS ID & URL"

  1. Check
    Discogs Release ID: >DISCOGS_RELEASE_ID
    Discogs Release URL: >WWW

Discogs Master ID: >DISCOGS_MASTER_RELEASE_ID
Discogs Master URL: >WWW MASTER

  • write Master ID when tagging from normal release pages >yes
  • write Master URL when tagging from normal release pages >yes


  1. Open "OTHER FIELDS & OPTIONS"
  2. Check ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    OBS!!! NEW! - download cover artwork for Master Release >no
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How do i do that?

do i just click and drag it onto MP3Tag when i have MP3Tag open?

I can't see the Discogs Pone 4 Web Script Settings field in there. All i can see is:

ALBUM, ARTIST, ARTIST NAMES, CREDITS, IDENTIFIERS, DISCOGS ID & URL etc but no field for Discogs Pone 4 Web Script Settings.

What am i doing wrong?

Thanks :slight_smile:

You are not looking at the first page and the first post of this thread.

Hi there

I have read it but im not quite sure what to do on this bit:

I have attached images to show areas i am stuck on so i was wondering if i could be assisted?

Thanks



the metadata fields in your second screenshot are the setting fields. open them with double click and edit the text there

hi sorry im really, really new to this and dont really have a clue...

So on the second screenshot... what fields do i go into and what do i need to put into the edit text box?

Thanks for the reply.

You don't have to change anything there. This is to customize my script. You can change the names of the tag fields which the script uses for the discogs info. And you can select what information you want from discogs, can combine some information into one tag field, and choose the way some information is written.
If you leave all untouched, you get the settings I have choosen as default.

Resume with step 7 and 8 from the strarting post instruction and test the secript. That will make some things clear. After that, you allways can repeat the steps 4-7 to change the settings of the script.

Thanks very much!

that makes sense to me! hehe

Am i right that with this script ill be able to search discogs with catalogue numbers? rather than just 'album titles'?

Btw great work! I know i havent used it yet but want to say i admire your effort on making things easier for people :slight_smile:

Take care

Just wanted to add i have installed it now and it seems to be ok :slight_smile:

Is there a way that with using this script it will enable me to go to Tag Sources>Discogs and let me search by Cat No or label and NOT just by album title?

Thanks :slight_smile:

Yes and no. It has worked before, but this script is out of function at the moment. I have to do a little update, but I'm a bit lazy on that for some time now.

The script which has this function is/was Tag Sources>Discogs Pone>Search by Label + Catalog#.

Maybe I will fix that this week. I have some spare time right now for things like that.

Pone,

That would be brilliant mate!

A really good idea.

Because theres so many songs i cant find by searching by album title.

For example lets say this here:

http://www.discogs.com/Curtis-Lynch-Jr-Thi.../release/342983

This is: 'Curtis Lynch Jnr*, Kele Le Roc, Red Rat ‎– Thinking Of You'

If i let discogs search this on MP3 Tag. It does find 'Thinking of you' by Kele Le Roc but it only shows one version.

I definitely feel if there was more of of just that 1 option of searching by 'album title' i would be much more likely to narrow it down to what i'm looking for.

Try finding this: 'Curtis Lynch Jnr, Kele Le Roc, Red Rat ‎– Thinking Of You' on mp3tag....
Because i can't :frowning:

So hopefully your fix will enable me to locate files like this!

Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Hi just to add:

If i go to: Tag sources>discogs_pone>direct by ID and put this in: 342983

it takes me to this:

But where is all the discogs information and cover art?

thanks :slight_smile:

Do you get empty fields with all my scripts?
If so, most likely something went wrong during installation.
Have you used the file which dano has fixed for me?
[WS] Discogs (pone mod)

Hey!

Can you show me what file dano fixed for you?
Im struggling to find it.

Also i thought i might add i accidentally replaced a file earlier which may be my problem.
The file is: sfv.mte locaed in: C:\Documents and Settings\Mart\Application Data\Mp3tag\export

Would this be my problem?

If it is my problem do you have a replacement one to send me?

Very sorry! i thought have backed it up! :stuck_out_tongue:

I gave you the link above, it's "pone mod 4.unifinished 5"
The sfv.mte file has nothing to do with my scipt. No problem about that.

Right....

either im being REALLY REALLY stupid here or the file is not on that page.
I cannot find anywhere on that page a download for '4.unifinished 5'

even the search doesn't help.

Is there another way of getting 4.unifinished 5?

Thanks

the link is here:

Edit:
direct link:
http://forums.mp3tag.de/index.php?act=atta...ost&id=4916

Thanks very much for that! :slight_smile:

Ok so i downloaded that.

Replaced the contents of export, actions etc and put the new mp3 file in the profile folder of MP3TAG.

I then dragged the .mp3 file into MP3TAG and clicked on Extended tags. Then i clicked ok.

In the actions menu discogs pone is already there.

But im sitll having the same problem :frowning:

I go to Tag sources>Discogs Pone>Direct By Discogs ID>1123618

It comes up with that screen again and all the fields are empty.

Do you have teamviewer?

Or another suggestion?

Sorry to pester you.

Thanks.

Mart.

Fixed!

Just reinstalled it and done it all again!

All fine now man thank you thank you thank you!

Discogs hanged API? I can't connect...

IMO only Direct by URL (www) not working...

It appears this is no longer working:

Using Discogs_Pone_Mod_4.unfinished_5

Search By (Album)Artist + Title

The search is fine and returns results.
You then select one and it takes you to the next screen.

The results after you select the album (in the Adjust tag information window) are empty apart from the track lengths. Ive tried this with many albums and get the same results.

Screenshot attached.

If someone could tell me where I need to tinker Id be happy to have a try to fix it. Otherwise any help would be much appreciated :slight_smile:

Great script Pone. Keep up the great work!

Cheers, Gavin


Getting strings from the CREDIT section into separate FIELDS?

Hi,

How would I go about if I wanted part of the content of the CREDITS section to be put in separate fields?

Examples:
Producer -> %producer%
Mastered By –> %masterdby%
Written-By –> %composer%
Mixed By -> %mixedby%

Kind regards and thanks for a great script!
