Traxsource Cover and Release Year + write generic release date
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Hi,
a) Why doesn't the cover appear in the TAGS searches on Traxsource? Very important to determine the right song to extract the tags. (1)
b) Would it be possible to also add the release date as data displayed in the manual tag list (in addition to Genre, BPM, KEY)?
I'll also explain why:
The song Mighty Mouse - The Spirit (Extended Mix) identified with (2) is the song of the single that has a release date of 11-09-2018.
The same song is also contained in compilations (3,4,5) that have a different cover and above all a different release date such as 2020. BUT we know that the song was released exactly on 11-09-2018.
c) I think it makes more sense to write the DATA data in this way.
the year in the year field separately (already possible) - 2018
and the rest of the release date in its field - 0911
YEAR: 2018
RELEASE DATE "TDAT": 0911 (month,day)
Once the data is written in this way, when I import the track into TRAKTOR the Released field automatically composes 2018-11-09 reporting the "exact" data year, month, day of release of the song.
If instead I would write only the Year data, when I import the track into traktor the released field would be 2018-1-1 (so without the month, day data).
At the same time in the YEAR field of Mp3Tag I would only display 2018, instead of displaying 2018-11-09 which is wrong as the field is only for the year.
a) Either there was problem fetching the cover from Traxsource, or it was unavailable. I can check it if it's consistently failing.
b) Manual Tag fetches only limited amount of metadata, and once you pick the correct release it fetches all the remaining missing pieces. Thus release date isn't available in Manual Tagger for some platforms. I can check which ones / whether it would make sense to show it.
c) Date as TYER + TDAT is written if you use ID3v2.3. Otherwise 1T uses TDRC since that's the standard in ID3v2.4.

a) Please check, because I never get the cover preview with Traxsource. (it works with beatport, deezer...)
b) If it would be possible to also insert the release date in the preview so as to better identify the right track to tag that would be great.
c) OK actually I was storing data with v2.4. Using ID3v2.3 standard works fine, Date as TYER + TDAT thanks
All should be fixed in latest Actions build.
