2) How did you install beets?

hello
i have some asian artists/albums and beets tags them (and folders too) with asian characters
(asciify is a bit too much for me, i want some french or spanish characters too)
DjSlash
yeah, that's a possibility too. Depends on what your goal is, I guess
daks
didn't worked, but i think this artist/album has no english name on MB
even if it has a 'sort name' in English
i'll retag manually
DjSlash
see `beet modify`
daks
that retagged my files, but didn't move them on the disk
'beet move artist:X' i imagine

daks: You can also add an English alias to the MusicBrainz entry yourself.
This would also benefit the next person coming along, as well as prevent beets from undoing your manual renaming/-tagging when you feel like refreshing all the information.
daks
can't find how. it already has an english 'sort name'
I need to add another field to the db for my pluggin, is there another plug that does this that someone can point me to?
