#Minimserver features license#
This can be useful if you are running SongKong without using a Gui such as on a remote linux server, or if there is a license issue. You can now edit the file directly instead. This is fine but with SongKong 4.10 we moved license details into a new license.properties file. I would usually suggest setting it to Yes if matched to a release but since the customer is not interested in releases only songs a better setting would be Yes if matched to a release or a song.

If not, how close can I get before having to do manual work?Ĭreating new mask is a common request so it is worth going through the stepsīy default files are not renamed, so if you want this on the Basic tab you need to set Rename Files based on Metadata to something not leave it as No. So I would have subdirectories that would look like this:Īnd in each subdirectory would be all songs that were released that year. I am looking to take my entire collection and using SongKong fix, get rid of dups, and then finally end up with all songs characterized like this:Īnd have each song go into a separate subdirectory that is the year I received the following request on the forum today: If we want to both, then we can configure as followsĪdd albumartist_sort, album_artists_sort to itemTagsĪdd =

it is easier to identify the albums if you can see the full list of people credited to the album. when a release is credited to multiple people it is better to map album_artists to albumartist so then you can browse by the individuals involved in a release.īut to achieve 2. As a way to correctly identify a release, allowing us to differentiate between different releases with the same or similar names. As a way to browse for releases that a particular person or group were involved in.Ģ. The Album Artist can be used in two different ways:ġ. Secondly these people are not all involved in all tracks, certainly when multiple works by different composers exist on a single album The Album Artist stored in MusicBrainz replicates what is written on the spine or front of the disc.This represents the the main people that the release is credited to.įor Pop/Rock this is quite straight forward, usually a single performer or band is credited for the release as a whole and all the tracks, with perhaps an additional performer credited on a couple of tracks.įor Classical music its more complex since first of all more people are involved such as composers, conductors, performers and orchestras. Go back to Part 6: Classical Track Artist Groups Example With out using groups all tracks are listed in track order when you open an album When there are more than two levels the Work/Composition should usually be set to the highest level, i.e the Opera name Operas can consist of multiple tracks per scenes that are part of acts that then make up the Opera. īut some music such as Operas are more complex than a simply consisting of movements and works. In the majority of cases the Work/C ompositi on field has the same value as the Group field but it is used for a different purpose, if added to the indexTags field it can then be indexed and br owsed in the same way as the artist or album. But with regards to Classical music a Group is synonymous with a work, with each track representing a movement and all movements in a a work having the same value for Group.
I n its pure st sense Groups are simply a way to groups tracks within a particular album. Minimserver has the concept of Groups and Works (or C ompositions). Go back to Part 3:Sorting Conductor and other fields We have now improved SongKong iTunes integration so that for Wav files it updates the iTunes library itself preserving the metadata added by SongKong into iTunes seamlessly.
When editing within iTunes itself it stores only in the iTunes library not the file itself. However iTunes doesn't understand that metadata can be added to WAV files so it ignores the metadata added.

SongKong and iTunes have both supported the WAV format for some time and SongKong has always had support for informing iTunes of changes made so that iTunes can update its metadata with the latest details from SongKong. Support for adding WAV metadata to iTunes For the most part SongKong has supported all flavours of Linux, but the audio fingerprinting component was not supported for arm32 chips, but now it is. The Arm32 chipset is often used on embedded and specialist architectures.
