Discogs Tagger 5.84 (Updated: 2024-01-03)

[crap_inhuman]

Just wanted to thank you crap_inhuman for your work! The script now seems to run flawless again.

You're welcome !

Having issues scraping the following Discogs entry:

http://www.discogs.com/Lino-Yours/release/709553

Which produces:

"Error #3001 - AODB.Stream

Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.
File: "<userpath>\MediaMonkey\Scripts\DiscogsAutoTagWeb.vbs", Line: 7109, Column: 2"

The returned entry in the Auto-Tag from Web is:

"(1/7) Lino (2) - Yours [CD, Maxi-Single] Australia (2001) catNo:7243 8 79427 2 1 / Virgin"

Which is correct, but fails to parse (empty screen below).

edit: Just guessing, but it could be the oddly formatted cat no (with multiple spaces)?

Thank you for reporting this bug. I found it and release a new version soon.

No worries - thanks so much for this add-on, has saved me uncountable hours of data entry when re-ripping my CD library.

[crap_inhuman]

I just released a new version.

Happy tagging

A really excellent Add-on which is proving invaluable to me at the moment !

Not sure if this should be addressed to the Add-on developer, or to the Discogs database team, but when I try to apply tags (using the Add-on, not manually) to :-
2 Many DJ's ‎– As Heard On Radio Soulwax Pt. 2
then I get the following error message, regardless of which version of "Pt. 2" I select :-

Error happened during script execution :
Type mismatch : '[string: ""]'

Interestingly, all other CD's in the series (Pt. 1 to Pt. 11) have all tagged correctly, without any problems.

As this disc has a lot of tracks, and all of the other albums have been tagged correctly, it would be really appreciated if this could be fixed.
Thanks !

The problem with this release is the tracknumbering (-1) of the first track. Please try the following release : 3552206
Copy & Paste the release number in the upper search field of the Add-On

Perfect - that fixed it - many thanks !
Should this be corrected @ Discogs ? The fix that you've suggested is from the Vinyl listing, and I've ripped my files from the CD.
However - thanks again - and the Add-on is really much appreciated....

Great. If "-1" is the tracknumbering on this release, it shouldn't be changed at Discogs. In the next release the Add-on will no longer stop with an error.

But there is another problem with "mixed" releases :

If there are sub-tracks on the release like this...

7.1 Bobby Orlando - The "O" Medley
7.2 Felix Da Housecat - Silver Screen Shower Scene

...the script only take the first artist "Bobby Orlando" for tagging the artist-field. The title would be "The "O" Medley, Silver Screen Shower Scene".
This isn't the best way i think.
What should be the right way ? Taking the artists together in the artist-field and the title in the title-field like this ...

7 (Artist:) Bobby Orlando, Felix Da Housecat - (Title:) The "O" Medley, Silver Screen Shower Scene

or this way...

7 (Artist:) Bobby Orlando, Felix Da Housecat - (Title:) Bobby Orlando - The "O" Medley, Felix Da Housecat - Silver Screen Shower Scene

or in another way?

Another problem that I've noticed while working through my collection : there are several Artists where there's an additional comma & space in their name :-

"Archive, "
"The Cardigans, "

There have been more, but these are two that spring to mind.
Is this is a Discogs data problem ? How / where can it be addressed ? I could see that one example might be caused by "Cardigans, The" being somehow re-written / interpreted, but not for "Archive".

Hi rolski,

i know the problem. Discogs changed the "join"-field in the database. http://www.discogs.com/forum/thread/416440

This will be solved in the next release of the addon.

After getting no response to my question I add the support for sub-tracks with various artists this way :

7 (Artist:) Bobby Orlando, Felix Da Housecat - (Title:) Bobby Orlando - The "O" Medley, Felix Da Housecat - Silver Screen Shower Scene

There still is a problem with joint artists tracks 9 artist of release http://www.discogs.com/release/6885663 now shows without space (Hecqvs. Gore Tech)
Thanks for your help!

[crap_inhuman]
