hi

when I run beet mbsync, I have "Skipping album 964: has no mb_albumid". How do I know which album is the 964th?

resolved by opening the sqlite db with sqliteman

still can't find

how to modify genre of mp3 file

beets modify hasn't provided any doc how to write such modifications

a.. genre=mygenre ..ok

http://pastie.org/8509949 =/

utf is not supported..?

It is. As you can see, it's working fine with the first few mp3's. But somehow it seems like it's trying to move the '02' track for a second time. And since it's already done that, it can't find it anymore. Which is weird, normally it won't do such thing.

hmz

manuall lastgenre usage is not clear to me at all =(

beet: error: unknown command lastgenre

i wonder why

ah nobody wrote that there's "plugins" category where i need to put lastgenre =/

https://github.com/sampsyo/beets/pull/463 :P

holms: please see the plugins section of the docs

well... you refer to this on that plugins doc

in plugin section no example..

good point; we could use an example there

so i've just followed what words says on lastgenre doc "add a line plugin, and line above"

:D

sampsyo: ok then probably example like i've added would be suitable for config page, or atleast redirect to that page where it presents

zeltak: https://github.com/sampsyo/beets/wiki/Attachments

sampsyo: you need to add donation buttonf or attachments :P

for*

:) unfortunately, money doesn't make me code faster

if only it did!

I would be so into that

sampsyo: thx i do indeed follow it and wrote a small tehcnical explenation on the wiki :) i was just wondering weather there was a rough time frame for that

in terms of your priorities

ah, cool

thanks for contributing!

it is by far the most-requested feature, so I hope to get to it sooner rather than later

sampsyo: you can hire someone

)))

and if its not high on your list its totaly fine, i would just appriciate a rough time frame :)

sampsyo: no problem im happy to help in anyway i can, unfortunantly i cant code :)

zeltak: it's high on my list

ah kk, are you one of the devs holms ?

still searching for a free time on that. maybe this weekend i'll try to come up with something

zeltak: yeah i'm dev but not of beets :)

cool. one of the roadblocks is that I'm still not completely convinced about the right implementation strategy.

holms: sweet would be super cool :) would love to help test etc if needed

sampsyo: question: lastgenre seems to be doesn't give me any debug info even with verbose flag

there are a number of ways we could attack this, but none of my ideas so far have been perfect.

holms: that's odd. it definitely should.

i need to see a code, and probably would go for a plugin first..

because there'd be too much bugs to implement it directly to core

sampsyo: http://pastie.org/8510399

that suggests that those files aren't in your beets database

hmz

have you tried "beet ls" with the same path?

it's in db

prolly will override manully then

it's just happend that lots of genres were crap in tags

I see

so it throwed around 50 albums randomly

to random genre folders ))

regarding attachments the only

wish I have for now, is just move everyting that's in dir together

ofcourse when you split songs from albums.. this is a disaster solution then

=/

indeed

this is why the feature is deceptively tricky

a half-solution will be kind of crappy

and hard to move away from later

would be fine for a while

for example as i had this situation

just now. that my genres are screwed..

so i've ended up one album sliced to 4 dirs..

in this case (if somebody needs this)

hi

copy paste attachments

I've got a problem with track and albumartist tags

sampsyo: i'd actually at least would like to write plugins for dragging everything that folder has along. next feature would be to have white list, what to drag..

this would solve more then half wishes for nwo :)

now*

to write plugin*

that would be easy enough; the trouble is that many other users want to do more with their attachments

oloP: what's the issue?

well not everything at once :P

sorry I'm uploading a picture to show you

but they appear twice

ah

what player is this?
