Wrong tag issue

[wengxt]

I always carefully tag my music files, but I find slimpd tries to resolve the tag by itself based on certain unreliable source like file name. At I'm sure all of my music files have proper artist field in id3v2, but almost all my music in slimpd db is shown as unknown artists, certain ones that has artist is also wrong because there is a "-" in song title.

I tried to go through the config but not even clear config "artist-glue" helps (I do clear the cache and try hard-reset).

i found this snippet in my code

        if($this->conf["modules"]["enable_guessing"] == "1") {
            // do some voting for each attribute
            $this->runAttributeScoring();
        }

i think i have not implemented this configuration value properly but you can give it a try by configure:

[modules]
enable_guessing = 0

further you can try to hack core/php/Modules/Albummigrator/MigratorContext.php:78. you can replace the default scoring for real tag attributes (currently 2) with a very high value like 1000

// but add to recommendations in any case (higher scoring for real tag attributes)
$this->recommend([$setterName => $foundValue], 1000);

would be great if you can give feedback on that issue! in a few weeks i will continue my work on sliMpd

Ok, I found my issue is this kinds of guessing is done by post-processing of track. I tried to comment out everything in setTitle post processing so it solves some of my problem.

But still, slimpd seems to prefer use directory name as album name instead of the one from tag.

Also, the setArtist result seems to be correct, but the result in database are still wrong. I still get tones of unknown artist, and if I clicked into some artist from web page it shows totally wrong songs, I suspect there's also some bug in migration code.
