Create AcoustID Fingerprint

This function is used to create an acoustic fingerprint for all selected files which meet the criteria.

Any track which already has a User Defined Text Info item named Acoustid Fingerprint or Acoustid Fingerprint Fault will not be processed. This operation is not valid for dff files.

If a fingerprinting attempt fails, this function will create a UDTI named Acoustid Fingerprint Fault with a value of 1. If a fingerprint is successfully created, Acoustid Fingerprint Fault will be removed.

If the Preferences - AcoustID - Do not fingerprint if AcoustID data is available option is set and a UDTI named Acoustid Data exists, the fingerprint will not be created. If the Preferences - AcoustID - Retain status when getting AcoustID data option is also set and a User Defined Test Info item named Acoustid Status exists and has a value of 1, the fingerprint will not be created.

You can choose to suppress the display of errors in the UI by selecting the Ignore errors option. Note that when running in the Batch Processor, Ignore errors is assumed.
