Discogs tagging help

Open nmycps opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Just a while ago, I tried 'Auto Tag' using Discogs only, for my vinyl and CD files, and among the successful matches, the accuracy when there are multiple releases from the 'master' release, is a mixed bag of results. Over the last hour or so, I've been playing with different settings such as 'max albums to check' and 'strictness'. For example, I set max albums to '1' and strictness to 100%, but I get tag results from multiple releases. As an experiment with one CD, I tried pre-setting the Discogs release id# to each track hoping that would help the accuracy, and it did. Unfortunately, the app is challenged in determining which release I actually have if that isn't set. For the above CD I mentioned, it pulled results from two or three different releases, and so named the track numbers accordingly, so some have a vinyl track-style number and other tracks are just numbers, like on the CD. It would take quite a while to pre-check each EP or album I have to enter the Discogs release ID so maybe I should run the Auto Tag through additional sources, like Juno Download, MusicBrainz, etc. I'm using the latest build as per the previous posts' suggestion.
