[WS] Discogs (pone mod)

thank you jaflorian and david.lynch for pointing that out.

i'll work on that

@jaflorian: is there any info on this new index structure?
what is the difference between the new "index" and the old "heading" like here:
http://www.discogs.com/Scion-Arrange-And-P...s/release/43996

:rolleyes:

Thanks for the reply:

OK, in year case it is a heading still working, there are new "index tracks" indicated on the page by a

downward arrow with a tip right, headings are not indicated.

For more Information:

Hopefully this helps.

OK, thank you jaflorian for the information.

A question to everybody:
Is there any need for this script to treat in Index Tracks and Headings different?

Update 4.3

Fixed:
The comma error which displayed all artists with comma at the end for a few month at some releases.
Thank you Andromedych for reporting that.

Fixed:

The new Discogs Index Tracks are now treated the same way as the old Discogs Headings, and - most impotant - they don't break the script anymore.
Thank you david.lynch and jaflorian for reporting that.

Sorry Moshi and alwayswrming, I hadn't any time for your requests yet.

Well, it works correctly in the way I intended.
For releases likes that, you always need the "tracklist for albums with multi song tracks" script. 1-13 and 2.8 is what I call a "multi song track". The script is intended to be used after you have found your release with one of the other pone discogs scripts and noticed that the tracklist is has such tracks. For this, you can alway check the original discogs position numbers in the "Length" column at the end of the left field in the "adjust tag information" dialog.

You will get the "The Sixth Sense" as CHAPTER for that track and you will have a list of all track titles as TITLE and a list of all artists as ARTIST.
I made it that way, because the old discogs heading were in most cases not part of the track names but information like "Bonus Tracks", "Live at soandso", ...

That's why I asked here in the forum how to treat this new "index tracks". It seems to me like putting them always into the TITLE field doesn't fit all releases. And what will you do with the title and artists of the sub tracks then. Put them in the same field or into a new field?

See jaflorians example, tracks 6, 7, 8 here: http://www.discogs.com/release/5527906
They are sub tracks with a index track at discogs, but in a different way then at track 9 and 11 at the same release.
My "tracklist for albums with multi song tracks" script handles that quite smoothly.

I think the best solution is a action group which you can apply to selected tracks after the web scripts.

  1. Format Value
    Field: TITLE
    Formatstring: %chapter%

  2. Format Value
    Field: ARTIST
    Formatstring: Various

  3. Remove Fields:
    Fields to remove: CHAPTER

In addition, you can also apply the "tracklist for DJ Sets in one file" discogs script on that files. That will give you the full tracklist into the UNSCYNCEDLYRCIS field. When you open the extended tags dialog, you can delete the lines which belong to other tracks and only leave the needed tracklist there.

But I' open for suggestions how to solve this directly with the script.

Hi.
Is there a way to put the [featuring] artist from the MIXARTIST field in the ARTIST field? Like "Original Artist feat. Mix Artist"?

If it not possibly what can i do that only the feat artist is stored in the MIXARTIST field? So i can use it for an action.

Thank you.

No worries mate, I understand. I will keep waiting patiently :slight_smile:

thank you for everything!

Sorry for just jumping in to his thread but I don't know where to post this question.
I've been using the pone mode for a long time and it works very nice. Today when I wanted to tag
some albums I only get one suggestion for each search. So if I just go for a Artist search
Discogs Pone ->Artist I get one hit even though there should be plenty of suggestions of different
albums. Anyone that knows why this happens?
Thansk in advance
Podde

is the new script incomplete? Because I search by album and it says it can't be found

Discogs updated the api yesterday and now the script does not work as intended
Discogs changelog

but for some reason everything else works

yes, changes at discogs broke all searches. direct tagging with url or discogs id is still working. i will have a look at the problem.

edit:
update soon, looks easy to fix

Update 4.4

Quick fix to adopt to the latest changes at Discogs' API. Script works again. No further changes.

thanks pone, very much appreciated, as always

hi

i did really love your script
but it doesn't work for me , in the past works like a charm

in short to make a clean install

i follow the instructions
but when i start the script i get this
in this casa album ok computer , radiohead

selected all the songs

tag source->discogs

i got this

when i click next i get this error

wha'ts wrong?
thanks

installed as instructed, the result is same as above - blank sheet.

One more happy user :slight_smile:
Wonder, why this is not included in the official release

@rama & get8p
That's not my script. The screenshot is from the official mp3tag discogs script.
Use
tag sources>discogs pone
not
tag sources>discogs

ops
thanks Pone , it works 100%
:w00t: :rolleyes:

hey pone,

is there a way to re-map the "Featuring" and "(Vocals [Featuring])" artist(s) from TRACK_CREDITS, and add them to ARTIST field (multivalue).
See the image: my current settings, and the current result.

I want to change so that any artist in TRACK_CREDITS with (Featuring) or (Vocals [Featuring]) add to the ARTIST field, multivalue (separated by \\ or ; )

What do you think?
