Normal topic[Solved] Add Discogs-Tag-By-ID possibility

Sometimes it is handy to just insert the Discogs ID manually and let Yate tag the release. E.g. when the search is broken or the release is something like this »Unknown – Untitled«.

You can do that now by writing an action which prompts for the ReleaseID and saves it to a User Defined Text Item with a description field of DISCOGS_RELEASE_ID. If all the selected tracks have that field, running the Discogs wizard will directly load the release.

See the attached image.

Seems like this stopped working in the latest 3.0 beta. I have some releases called «untitled» by «various», so I have to put in the ID manually.
Now when I set the Discogs-ID and run the Discogs-Wizard, Yate is asking me for album title and artist.

More than likely one or more selected files has no DISCOGS_RELEASE_ID or has a different value. Every selected file should have the same DISCOGS_RELEASE_ID value.

In the UD Text panel there should be a solid black circle status code to the left of DISCOGS_RELEASE_ID. If the circle is only half filled then one or more of the selected files does not have the same value.

The normal query for Album and artist is only circumvented when the DISCOGS_RELEASE_ID is consistent across all selected files.

I've removed all metadata from an album except for the DISCOGS_RELEASE_ID value and it's working for me.

Let me know.

In v3.0 Preview 4 I've added the ability to directly specify a release id from the Discogs and MusicBrainz wizards.

For the Album search field you can specify:

id=release id
