Can you apply only specific tags, like Style or Genre, which maybe missing from your files, but not overwite your existing tag info.?

You can set discogs to write, for example, %discogs_genre%, then use "Format from other fields" in Properties for genre tag with a script like $if2(%genre%,%discogs_genre%).

It's taken me a bit of time to figure out how to use this (15 minutes) but once I did, I love it!  Thank you so much!

Take that, crappily-tagged vinyl rips!

The biggest problem I have with foo_discogs right now is the disc and track numbering. Here we see that Discogs itself knows all the disc and track numbers, but these numbers are not reflected in foo_discogs' tagging. Instead it pretends that this is just 1 16-track release. There's the "Multi-disc release" option, but that doesn't seem to do what I would expect here. I would like foo_discogs to simply use the same information that's obviously in the Discogs database to tag the files with.

Track numbers are not normalized in the discogs db. Here they are 1.1, 1.2 etc. In other releases they could be CD.1, ...  etc. When I tag such a release I just use the multi-disc release and it's renumber track functionality (after removing tracks not in the current disc being tagged), so each track has the correct track number. I don't see what you expect more except maybe more automation that is not possible and even if it was it would not cover all corner cases.
You could also map "Unmodified track position" to tag TRACKNUMBER but I guess this is not what you want either. In that case you could tag all 16 tracks at once and have track numbers as specified in the release page.

Ah! That makes more sense to me. Thank you for the detailed explanation.

v 1.16 (fist post to download)

No new functionality, but stability fixes (Thanks Peter). Now it uses the http proxy setting of foobar2000.
All operations involving communication with discogs are now abortable instantly.

Hello bubbleguuum!

A very small but pedantic request: Could you change in one of the next versions the name of context menu items to new case sentence style?

Removed 1.16 because of a nasty connection problem with it. Download link reverts to 1.15.

Here's 1.17 that should be less crash-prone than 1.15. This version is a beta and 1.15 is still available (first post).


1.17 (beta)
---------------

- stability fixes (thanks Peter).
- I/O operations abortable instantly
- Filter in Find Release dialog is populated with %ALBUM%

Thanks for the new version!

But i cannot find network settings (in 1.15: context menu->discogs->configuration->network tab). I have entered my proxy server hostname on the networking preferences page (file->prefs->networking), but it seems that foo_discogs doesn't consider it. Fix it please.

foobar setting for proxy is not used yet.  Setting the system proxy settings in "Control Panel / Internet Options" should work

Hi bubbleguuum!

Thanks for updating the plugin. It is much easier now to locate a right album among multiple artists with same name.

Can you please also check this particular release which crashes my foobar: http://www.discogs.com/release/1513652


Thanks,
D

When I type Motörhead in Artist it goes in Egyptian Gay Lovers, The and then again, when typed incorrectly Motorhead, it goes in the right place.

Confirmed. Maybe it's some Unicode issue.

1.18

- fix: rare crash on some artist names (such as artist named "()" in http://www.discogs.com/release/1513652
- fix: handle correctly ascii characters > 127 in search
- use foobar's http proxy if used with foobar2000 >= v0.9.6.5 beta 1, otherwise uses IE proxy settings (OS configuration)

Thx for the new release. The OP still says that the current version is 1.17 (beta). Have you updated the dll or do we still have to wait?

Thanks for this great plug-in!

Unfortunately it is lacking one particular feature that prevents me from using it. When I tag vinyl releases I like to format it so a release like this:
A1
A2
B1
B2

Becomes:
%discnumber%=A, %tracknumber%=1, %totaldiscs=B%, %totaltracks=2%
%discnumber%=A, %tracknumber%=2, %totaldiscs=B%, %totaltracks=2%
%discnumber%=B, %tracknumber%=1, %totaldiscs=B%, %totaltracks=2%
%discnumber%=B, %tracknumber%=2, %totaldiscs=B%, %totaltracks=2%

Essentially I want to split the vinyl track number (A1, A2, A3 ... B1, B2, B3 ...) into 2 values and use the side (A, B, C ...) for %discnumber% and the track number (1, 2, 3 ...) for %tracknumber%.
Furthermore %totaldiscs% should always be the highest occurring side letter (B in the above example) and %totaltracks% should be the total track numbers from each individual side.

More simply put I'd like to treat a vinyl as you would normally treat a multi-disc release but using multiple sides instead of multiple discs.


Thanks in advance!


[EDIT]
On a release with multiple artists like: http://www.discogs.com/Acquaviva-_-Navas-_...release/1003139
The %artist% field is formatted like "Acquaviva _ Navas _ Amo" instead of "Acquaviva; Navas; Amo" when special characters like "_" and "/" are used on discogs to seperate their names.
Ideally the artist names should be split in the tags with semicolons no matter what seperator is used on discogs.
[/EDIT]
[EDIT2]
Same goes for the "&" character like in this release: http://www.discogs.com/Gui-Boratto-Martin-...release/1246770
