Ein Hinweis:
Bei der Benutzung der Source '&MusicBrainz WS +ID#&2 Search by Album + A&rtist (+ID Tags)' darf man anscheinend keine Sonderzeichen wie z.B.
[CD1]
?
im Albumnamen haben, sonst erhält man immer die Rückmeldung:
Entfernt man diese Zeichen, funktioniert das Script einwandfrei und erspart massiv Tipp-Arbeit!
Nachtrag 29.12.2011, 18.35 Uhr:
Wenn man in der erwähnten Source die Zeile wie folgt anpasst: [SearchBy]=$replace(%album%,':',,'[',,']',,'?',) AND artist:%artist%dann funktioniert es mit den erwähnten Sonderzeichen ebenfalls.
It seems the Musicbrainz (both these and the official source) sources won't recognize multi-discs anymore. I reported this in the bugs section also. Any word on this? it's vital to Musicbrainz functionality.
I'm researching replacing Picard with MP3Tags + one or more of these scripts, and came across the multi-disc issue.
I may be in the minority here, but I happen to consider the per-disc information pretty irrelevant these days.
I do track Disc# in my tags, but I set my track numbers per-album, not per-disc, so in the "normal" (at least lowest common denominator) case where I just have a set of track files in an album folder they will sequence properly with the filename generated from the track number without having to use three+ digit tracknumbers.
Bottom line is I'm very happy with the MusicBrainz scheme, and if the dev (Dano?) wants to "fix" the script to re-start numbering on a per-disc basis, then my request is to make that an option to satisfy those whose preference on this issue matches the MB service's.
I'm not sure, if I understand your issue. I use an action like this:
Format Value, Field TRACK:
Format String: $num(%_counter%,$len(%_total_files%))/$num(%_total_files%,$len(%_total_files%))
If I select the tracks from the first disc only, I get the numbers for the total tracks of this disc.
If I select the tracks of the complete album (with one or more discs), I get the numbers for all the marked tracks.
That may well be handy sometime, thanks. If I'm tagging myself I've been very happy with MP3Tag's auto-numbering function, works perfectly for my needs.
I wasn't reporting an issue as such, just stating that I prefer my albums' tracks to be numbered say 1-31 rather than 1-8, 1-12, 1-11 for three discs, I capture but in practice ignore the disc numbering, my main point is that IMO discs are pretty irrelevant these days.
So that if the issue the OP was reporting gets "fixed" (which IMO isn't needed) I was simply pointing out that the option to keep MB's default behaviour should be retained for those of us who prefer it that way.
An update for v2 which includes a fix for the album display + the search overview now also displays media format and catalog number (thx to LyricsLover for the hint).
Since a week ago I've been having some issues using your script(s). I have to repeat the process of searching and selecting the right album to get all information filled in. On the 1st (and sometimes 2nd and 3rd) search & album select I only get half the fields filled in (no song names, no artist name, only year & album name for example). After repeating it a couple of times it works.
I've browsed the Musicbrainz forums but haven't seen any report of a malfunction on their search engine.
@The_Unknown,
Same timing, but a slightly different problem, when I have searched for and selected an album, the "Adjust Tag Information" box does not show all the fields - MUSICBRAINZ_TRACKID has stopped showing in the Additional Information box although it is added to the tags.
Edit : I'm getting old - the MUSICBRAINZ_TRACKID shows up in the Tracks box.
