Hi,
why shows v1.55 this release [+1 HIDDEN] Tracks?

IMHO those Tracks (1a, 1b) are just one single Track, and there is no hidden Track intended, like on modern CDs, where a hidden Track is really hidden in the last song, separated with a pause/silence)

Hidden track means that there's a second track in the same audio file/index. So it's a simple question to answer, either there IS a hidden track, or there is not and it's wrong in the Discogs database.

Yes, there should be more options regarding using hidden tracks in the future. Currently they are not used at all, only parsed.

High level feedback is welcome.


That looks excellent!

- add a legend button and/or some kind of auto-completion for built-in fields.
- add a function, i.e. $uniq() to strip duplicate values from multi-value fields. This would be useful because if you'd create an artist field by combining track artists and remix artists, you'd often end up with duplicate artists. Maybe it'd be better if foobar itself provided such a function though, because it would be useful in other plugins as well.

Also, consider this; instead of creating different variables like ARTIST_NAMES and ARTIST_MULTI, maybe the plugin should decide on how to present these variables based on how they are referenced. For instance, %ARTIST_NAMES% could simply be interpreted as %ARTIST_NAMES% but %<ARTIST_NAMES>% would translate to the multi-value field variation like %DISCOGS_ARTIST_MULTI% currently does.

Maybe you should also split the enabled column into two columns called 'enabled' and 'update'. It would be easier to understand and edit, as their values would only have to toggle between true/false or yes/no.

I'd like to "contribute" some ideas for the "old" component as well:

1)
allow inline editing inside the tracklist. this would be a nice feature, so the user does not need to wait until the tagging is complete, to correct a tracks tag. (sometimes a track is wrongly spelled by the discoGS database or the user need to fix some issues).


2)
remove a track from the tracklist in the release window with the common keyboard shortcut DEL, not only using the REMOVE button.


3)
allow the move up/down-buttons in the tracklist with more than one selected track. this would help as well speed up the organizing inside the component.


4)
skip the config option "automaticly match by tracks" and add a button right in the release-window (maybe next to the string "matching failed") so the user can just click and sort when needed. (if some information must be reloaded, reload it, when button is pressed)


5)
douple-click on album art in release-window would open the images page from a release, if possible. if not possible because of the api, just open the release page in default browser, where the user can click on the image in his browserwindow then.


6)
keep the sizes/position of the components windows between foobar2000 sessions.  now, the size/position is reset to a default position.


7)
2nd. filtering option:
while I mostly filter for album names, I'd also like to filter for format (CD,LP,...) but its not possible, becaue when filterin for i.e. CD, all album names of an artists show up, which is not convenient while searching a specific album/release.

So a second filter option would be great. it would be possible to filter for album name and *then* just see i.e. remastered released of an album, while entering "RM" in the second filter field.
this is very usefull for artists with a huge list of releases or where a about 50 different releases for an album, imho.


8)
the "remove" button on the right of the release-window never made any sense to me (because it leaves an empty space/line after removing a file from the list. would it be possible to delete the empty line, so the files under the removed file would ride up? this would make more sense (because the tagging would now match all tracks and not tries to tag an empty track)

just my 10 cents...

Could be useful, although the best way to deal with this would be to correct the release on Discogs.

One filter box should be enough, if it would allow for more advanced filtering. It now doesn't recognize spaces as a separator for search terms for example, but if it did you could simply type 'Americana LP' and it would list only items matching 'Americana' and 'LP'.

Because this would do the job exactly the same way and would give same results as in my "feature wish", I vote for that too, because it does not confuse the user with 2 filter-boxes! thank you for making my thoughts even better ;-)

Sometimes, I just strip information from a tracktitle (i.,e. chinese chars, when the track has also type-/readable chars), like some tracks from here or here. So its only for my personal use.

I forgot to mention a found bug (but a very minor bug):

when in the find release window with a filtered album, the master-release is shown with a * which is very very useful.

only drawback is, the * is first shown at the end of the list of all releases, but - after clicking on the artist again, the * is placed on top of the releases list.
(when closing the find release window and open it again, the * is placed at top directly, thats why I call this a bug, not a feature)
would be nice to place the * always on top.

Sorry, if I'm wrong, but this supposed to be fixed by new versions:

Error: Authorization Failed (401) [Is OAuth working?] - (url: http://api.discogs.com/oauth/request_token)


But I'm still getting this even after total reinstall of foobar with all updated components. System in Win7 Prof SP1 / 64bit.
Any solutions? I'd really want to have one because I love this component very much, it's was a pleasure to have it when sorting my library.

Works fine here. Have you tried reauthorizing discogs tagger? ( tagging -> discogs -> configuration ->  OAuth Identity )


yeah, this is exact point where I get this error, after pressing "autorize" button

Hi all, quick question:

can I, and how, add two instances of foo_discogs into discogs apps? I have one installation of Foobar at work, and other at home. When I authorise one at work, I deauthorise one at home. And vice versa.
I would like to have them both authorised.

The author of this component is going to somehow solve this problem? 

this is free plugin, so author doesn't have to check all issues. My only hope is that he's kind enough or someone else resolved same problem as mine.
despite the error, plugin worked with discogs release id. now it stopped doing even this...

I've got nothing to help you atm, but I visit/watched this Forum/Thread quite a while now and I guess because of the small amount of ppl which are complaining about the auth problem right now, its either a special problem with your config, or u found a very special hidden bug.
lets try to ignore a software fault, so we can try to concentrate on what u are doing to reproduce the failure.
I'll remember I had problems before too, but that was only because I clicked the buttons on a wrongly order. Now, the process is so intuitive/normal for me, I can't remember my probelms before.

Please let us all know EXACTLY what u are doing.
best way for this is to create a screencast, where u can make a video and show it to us. here is a good and free tool where u can shoot a video of your desktop and send us the link to your uploaded video, so we all can take a look

I don't know, but did u try to copy the .DLL to a different name and try to install it by hand?

Authorize one, then copy the "token" and "secret" directly from the settings into your other installation.

May be the same issue as discussed pages ago by user "arabeh" and "john812". Their solution was to update the time on Windows, I think.

Maybe use two different Discogs accounts?

Thanks zoomorph, this helped me. Only thing now is that miscorsoft server set my time incorrectly: +1 hour, which is probably russian government problem, because they changed the law about summer time so many times that nobody know what it's going on with it.  Looks like this had no effect on other plugins, like last.fm scrobbler. Thanks again!

OK, will try that, thank you very much.
I'm on vacation now, but when I return, I will report if it worked for me.

Just want to report that the 7 inches from 2455278 are merged into one entry per 7 inch with a hidden track. Sorry if a similar thing has been pointed out before. Cheers.

First off... thanks to zoomorph for continuing to work on this component.

I just tried tagging David Bowie Heroes and got this error.  Bug?  Too many David Bowie releases for it to handle?  I'm not having any problems tagging other releases.  Thanks.
