Yah they must be working on it. I've fired off four different messages to them with detailed descriptions of what is happening. No answers yet. Two nights ago I had a few hours of it working perfectly and then it degraded. Basically, almost any request which specifies an artist is failing. Yate potentially does three different requests for each track waiting for a decent result. If only the last request does something it is typically meaningless as it matches so many items on the site that the chance of getting the correct results is miniscule.

All good. I can wait. Just giving your updates.

Lots of my stuff is in Discogs, but fresh tracks do not make it to Discogs for quite some time, so Beatport is the one I've been using lately. Bandcamp and Tidal would be nice to have as well. I should see if I can get that data with python or something.

Not even Beatport Track Id is working now. I do have it enabled under Options pop-up

They may have been down. It's working for me as of now with Track ID matching enabled and disabled.

It is frustrating. I can test the track IDs using their online developer tools. The track IDs are not returning any matches. As far as the APIs are concerned those IDs do not exist. I can't find the tracks by manually searching on their site. If you can send me a URL to one of the faulty tracks on the Beatport site I can fire off an issue report to them.

Full release

https://www.beatport.com/release/patt-party-all-the-time-ep/42201

And the last one, the BCee track is here

https://www.beatport.com/track/vicarage-road/6036566

The search on their site is sooo slow. Whatever they are working on, I have seen literally 0 improvement with all these changes. They are pushing this Link nonsense really hard, so i am pretty sure all these major architecture changes are related to that.

I can't see the full release as it's region restricted. However I can see the BCee track. I purchased the track and tried to access the embedded Track ID in the Beatport online tools. As you said it does not match. I will fire this off to them.

Man, this thing is diving me absolutely crazy. Unless I manually set the Beatport track ID on pretty much 7-8 out of 10 tracks I either get no match, or something completely random. Tagging with Beatport has become a dreadful experience.
