The new Google provider seems to have fixed an issue that has annoyed me for a long time: songs with parentheses in the title will now (almost) always return a match, whereas before it rarely ever worked. So thanks for that!

Plugins / Re: UPnP/ DLNA device support

« on: August 01, 2022, 04:23:31 AM »

I just created a fork of this plugin that adds support for browsing downloaded podcasts in your MusicBee library. This was my first time messing around with Visual Basic so my code is kinda sloppy, but it works. I decided to somewhat uncreatively name my fork UpnpReloaded.

The plugin can be downloaded here: https://github.com/EliSadaka/UpnpReloaded/releases

Note that it only supports MusicBee 3.1 and later.

I don't see myself adding any more features since podcast support was really the last thing I needed, but the source code is available for anyone else to improve upon further. Depending on how easy it seems I might add support for browsing non-downloaded podcasts, but no promises.

MusicBee API / Re: Parenthesis in Titles

« on: May 21, 2020, 03:45:57 PM »

Would it be possible to add an option to toggle how MusicBee handles parentheticals in track titles? I personally almost never keep tags like (Album Version) or (Live) in my track titles, so for me the preferable behaviour would be to retain all text inside parentheses.

This could be a while FYI.  Do the built-ins retrieve lyrics for these songs? That would be a big hint.

No, at least not the ones I've enabled. They either fail to retrieve anything or retrieve the wrong song. On some songs the lyrics are successfully retrieved, but I think it's only because the provider has a matching URL that omits the text in the parentheses as well. e.g. https://genius.com/The-beach-boys-dont-talk-lyrics for the song "Don't Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulders)"

Hi, just a small bug report, I was having problems with a song with round brackets in its (official) name. The song in question was "Phantom Divine (Shadow Empire)" by Kamelot and I was not able to get any lyrics for it, but worked when I renamed it to "Phantom Divine Shadow Empire"

Parenthesis should be stripped out of the constructed url when they'll cause a problem at the site. If you look in the log for the plug-in (%AppData%/Roaming/MusicBee/mb_LyricsReloaded) it should tell you the constructed URL for each site the plug-in accessed and which sites could and couldn't find the lyrics.  If you go to each URL you'll see why the lyrics were and weren't found there.

Is it possible that the lyrics came from one of the native sources? They use a different method (API) to retrieve lyrics.  The plug-in is basically a web browser that pulls one specific text portion of the retrieved page.

It looks like it's also stripping the text that's inside the parentheses. I just checked my LyricsReloaded log and found this:

The lyrics I was requesting were for "(Girl We Got A) Good Thing" by Weezer. One of the URLs it constructed was http://genius.com/weezer-good-thing-lyrics which leads to an error page, but if the URL is changed to restore the text in the parentheses like http://genius.com/weezer-girl-we-got-a-good-thing-lyrics then it leads to the song's lyrics.

Bug Reports / Re: Error report

« on: August 24, 2019, 07:38:04 PM »

I am also getting this error, or at least an error similar to it. It happens whenever I open a new tab, select a view to load in it, and then try to open another tab. I tried the patch posted above but the issue still occurs. Interestingly enough, if I right click one of the options in the navigator and choose "Open in New Tab" then I don't get this issue when I try to open another tab after it. The error only happens when I left click an option to load it in the new tab and then try to open another tab.

any chance of producing a video of this. I cant reproduce it but there any many subtle things you could be doing.
If not, second best would be a screenshot of each of the steps and send me a zip with your settings file (help/ support/ view settings) and the view file(s) used which will be located in the AppData/Saved Settings/Views folder with a .mbv extension

edit:
to save time, could you try this version which might address the issue:
https://getmusicbee.com/patches/MusicBee33_Patched.zip

unzip and replace the existing musicbee files

That patch seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks!

MusicBee Wishlist / Support multiple genre categories per track

« on: August 16, 2019, 07:34:47 PM »

Can support for multiple genre categories per track be added? So for example, if a track is tagged with "Alternative Rock; Psychedelic Pop" then it's genre categories would be "Rock; Pop". It doesn't seem like this is currently possible.

MusicBee Wishlist / Album Artist Track Count filter rule

« on: July 30, 2019, 01:15:21 AM »

There is an Artist Track Count filter rule, but songs with a featured artist count as a separate artist from the album artist. Can an Album Artist Track Count filter rule be added?

Questions / Re: Do not sync certain songs to device

« on: April 26, 2019, 02:25:22 PM »

Thanks for the help. I was able to create a filter that excludes songs that contain a specific custom tag and then added that tag to all the songs I don't want to be synced. Is it possible to automatically tag songs by a certain artist when they're added to the library?

Questions / Do not sync certain songs to device

Is there a way to blacklist certain songs or artists from being synced to my phone? Or alternatively, can I blacklist songs that contain a specific tag?
