#beets

Hi... first of all, total thanks for your work. Im motivated for learning python now! (I even arrive to write "Hello World" three times!! :) ) !m [o__o] Is there someone to bother with some questions?

Actually this of "obsesive compulsive music geeks" is true. Since I restarted my huge collection tag mission, I have changed maaaany sleep hours for dosis of beets...

[o__o]: help

Available plugins: github, logger, ping, bangmotivate, help (https://botbot.me/freenode/beets/help/)

Are you in need of my services, crx?

yep, can I ask u some orientation, please?

you are talking to a bot

crx: don't ask to ask, just ask your questions

Ok.. here some 4

Question 1: Force duplicate with -q importing

I have a huge, but really, quantity of duplicates. The problem is that ignoring when -q importing the dups, makes me sometimes stay with files with a format or a bitrate worst that for example the ideal 192bps in mp3 or with .ogg that i prefer rather than others. So, whil the #116 issue is developed (sorry, im totally ignorant and i cant help in this), can i force accepting duplicates, and then manage the later? Like, forcing [K] option...

Question 2: Track forced to nn

How to make beets to force tagging the track field as nn (01) when autotaging (or in the case of Multiple cds edition nnn (101) I hate the 1/12 expression. Not in the filename, but in the field $track (and How to re-tag THIS field only when already imported)

Question 3: Don't tag field

It is posible to leave a field without autotaging? (for ex, in the basque music I want to preserve the basque genre_name of my choice. Bertzolari, (improvisator) that in "A capella" is absolutely not represented, or Triki for the music interpreted with Trikizio). So if I pass my basque music folder (of 70G) by beets, to aorganiza the rest, i want to keep this field untouched.

Question4: Giving Priority order to run plugins

If i set fetchart to look into .jpg files already existent into the folder, I have a incompatibility with copyartifacts. Then importing crash because "No such file", because copyartifacts already moved. Is there a way to give a priority like "First run fetchart plugin, then copyartifacts plugin".

(sorry maybe is too much abuse)

Hello everyone! Has somebody successfully used the bpd plugin under archlinux? It just flings a bunch of python warnings originating in the gst library at me and then freezes.

is there any inline templates examples anywhere? I dont arrive to understand how to do what i need

crx: note that it only do things that can be used in your path formats

crx: some examples as I use inline myself: https://gist.github.com/DjSlash/3313266de1b6966...

Thanx i will look. I dont know enough(nothing) python to understand how to write it

i think there are some answers there. I was trying o do:

set_subtitle: u'%01i' % (disc, disctitle) if disctotal > 1

but seems not right

I liked also # 4. if this album, is not an album, then tell what it is (i.e. live, soundtrack, etc). I was erasing then all (album) entries, just to leave the others

set_subtitle: u'%01i%s' % (disc, disctitle) if disctotal > 1 # extra %s because you give two arguments, disc and disctitle, where disctitle is a string (therefor %s)

(you probably want an space between %01i and %s, or something that divides those two)

Your examples make me understand quite more how is the system. I was totally blind. And online documentation is too huge to start without having any clue.

more info about string formatting (i.e. the %01i and %s stuff): https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/stdtypes.ht...

everyone needs a starting point ;)

Ok great, I will study this. It seems easy explained.

Its possible to give priority order to run plugins?

Its possible to force accept duplicate in -q mode?

I think answer is both kno

So, the only way til issue #116 is developed is keep erasing the library each time im importing for not staying with the wrong one?

what is wrong here, if I would like a "-" only if both values exist

year_pays: u'' if year and artist_country == O else u'-'

?

you are evaluating two different things

and is that an O instead of an 0 ? :)

No, is 0

i type wrong maybe now

ok :)

it tells me that artist_country is not defined; but how to give the value 1 if exists and 0 if not? is not autodefined?

eh, well... artist_country isn't a beets field afaik

check what fields beets has with `beet fields`

but is defined in a plugin

yes, artist_country is in that list*

u'-' if year or artist_country else u''

i made like this first, but also was error

sorry, "and" instead of "or"

that should work

nope

was my first try

with what error ?

yes... it start importing, matching, but at the momento of writing crashes

with

a long stuf and in the end

beetsplug.inline.InlineError: error in inline path field code:

u'-' if year and artist_country else u''

NameError: name 'artist_country' is not defined

what plugin is providing this field ?

this is the complete

artistcountry is the plugin

source?

actually im seeing that in the list of beets available fields, its in a separate part. Maybe is becouse "needs definition"

Actually my library is Geografic-defined, so its vecause of this plugin that i get more motivated still with beets, last year was not
