Questions / Advanced search options?
« on: May 20, 2017, 03:59:07 PM »
Is there a way to use some advanced search options? For example I want to find for which albums I have less than X tracks placed in Library (how many I have, not the total tracks of the album) or to locate all tracks that have different <Album Artist> and <Artist>
I looked at the Wiki and the Gui but couldn't find anything on that direction.

Questions / Moving remaining non-media files
« on: May 19, 2017, 05:19:46 PM »
I have some folders where they had by mistake some song from a different album (and some others with songs from multiple albums) what will happen with the non media files of those folders? They will be moved to the new folder for the playlist/to the folder of the last song moved (so maybe to the wrong folder)/...?

Bug Reports / Organise files issues
« on: May 18, 2017, 04:43:42 PM »
The option "do not reorganize files with missing naming tags" is not working: enabled or not makes no difference, if there is a missing tag it's never allowed to be modified by getting the default unknown value and you need to use $isNull on any possible to be empty, naming tags.

Option add to Library (again for Organise Files window), places files to Library regardless if they were organized or not: Files that have not been organized (remained with their initial filename and path) either because of missing naming tags or being duplicates are still getting placed at Music Libray node. Probably the same happens even if they were just manually unchecked in the window (didn't try that). I'm not sure if it is a bug or intentional action, to me makes more sense when a file doesn't get organized for any of the reasons to remain in Inbox so to know and process it at a later time. It basically drops the advantages of the existence of Inbox unless you have no empty tags and no duplicates...

Something else I noticed not really of importance:
In case of songs with multiple artists MusicBee allows to apply your own role/instrument for each. If a bracket "(" is typed at that field then both that field and the associated artist name field get modified in unexpected way.

I wasn't sure where to post this, in case there is an interest for the inclusion of greek letters in the ignoring diacritic marks list but no knowledge of greek alphabet, there are basically 6 cases:

Έ,έ => ε
Ύ,ύ => υ
Ί,ί   => ι
Ό,ό => ο
Ά,ά => α
Ή,ή => η

Bug Reports / Playlist and playlist field bugs
« on: May 05, 2017, 05:41:39 PM »
Previous post could be the same bug but I thought it would be better to start a new post. I have portable version, playlists as m3u with relative paths and changed the playlist storage directory from the default one (giving a full path for it)

1.When I removed a song from one playlist, in the playlist field of any node it kept showing it as part of that playlist eventhough it was succesfully removed (did not appear on that playlist's node).

2.That I have noticed some days ago, in the middle while I took actions for tagging, deleting and a couple of renaming filenames from inside musicbee on properties menu. I'm not sure at what point but playlists in musicbee do not link correctly to the path of the files anymore and (of course) the playlist field is empty everywhere excempt on playlist nodes where there is a question mark with a message for file missing. The relative paths of files in m3u's are correct but musicbee translates them relatively to the musicbee application's files folder instead of the directory where I set in preferences to save them

Also one minor bug I noticed, on mouse hover the application's icon (Windows 8.1) in the preview small window it always shows the play icon (do not toggle with the pause icon)
