Editing Tags via MusicBee

Closed this issue · 4 comments

I don't know if I've missed a checkbox somewhere but I can't get tags edited in MusicBee to work. When I make a change to a file's tag the change just doesn't appear in MusicBee or on Airsonic

I've tried with a couple Airsonic accounts to try and rule out permissions but still can't get it to work. Is this not yet supported? and if something that could be possibly implemented? I'd be interested in helping as that feature would be amazing.

This is not supported yet I'm afraid. Only the Star/Love tag changes is actually pushed over.
The Rating is also detected and pushed over, but due to a bug in the current version of MB, it never seems to get the actual value - instead it always gets "0" from MB, so it's not actually updated on the server. When/if this is fixed from MB, it will work with the plugin as it is.

I might add support for more tag updating in future versions however, depending on how well the MB part behaves regarding this. Unfortunately there's no real documentation and it involves a lot of trial and error... :(

Hi Midwan,

Thank you for the quick response, I don't know if you accept code contributions from others but this is definitely something I would be willing to put the trial and error effort in for.

I probably won't get started anytime soon but when I have a moment I'd like to mess around and see if I can get at least get something started.

Pull Requests are more than welcome! :)

I already put some (commented out for now) code there for this purpose, but it's not tested.

Closing this due to inactivity. Feel free to come back with anything new if you want. :)
