Questions / Musicbee $Date(<Year>,yyyy)

« on: August 26, 2022, 12:16:07 PM »

I've got the following custom tag of $Date(<Year>,yyyy)

This works for the most part, but for dates that are in the format dd/mm/yyyy it doesn't work.

Is this because MB expects the date to be in mm/dd/yyyy? If it is, is there anyway around it?

Example:
Year Tag                            Result
1965                                   1965
05/10/1970                       1970
2022-04-09                        2022
28/09/2004                       (Blank)
13/06/2008                       (Blank)

General Discussions / Auto Playlist Resize and Organise Window?

« on: September 10, 2021, 11:01:13 AM »

I  love to use an Auto Playlist to sync music from MusicBee to my phone.

My problem is that it's become a bit of a beast!

It would make it a little easier to manage if when you right click the playlist and select "Edit Auto-Playlist"  if that window that loads could be resized. Also, what would be great too, would be if there is any way of organising the rules below to be in alphabetical order or even searching them?

Not sure if it's possible, but I think it would make it easier to manage all the rules.

Questions / Left Main Panel Add Sub Information

« on: July 24, 2021, 10:20:39 AM »

In MusicBee, I've got the left main panel and it shows Album Artist, and the under the name is some more information for how many albums that artist has.

Is it possible to add another piece of information in the left main panel?

I've already set up a "Total Artist Plays" virtual tag using the additional tagging tools plugin. This works as I can add it into the main panel, so I just wondered if it was possible for me to have the main LEFT panel show:

Album artist
Number of albums
Total songs plays

Is that possible?

Portable Devices / Import GoneMAD stats.xml into MusicBee

« on: April 28, 2021, 09:33:28 AM »

Since Android 10 or 11, the MusicBee wifi sync isn't able to read the stats.xml exported from GoneMad player to import the play count and ratings back into MusicBee.

I am able to manually get the stats.xml file onto my computer.

I was wondering if anyone knows how I can import the information from this file into MusicBee like the wifi sync app did automatically? (Is there a menu option/command line etc)?

Questions / Display "Initial Key" Tag

« on: February 26, 2021, 04:44:47 PM »

Hi,

I've tagged some of my music and now it has an "Initial Key" tag. I can see this in MusicBee in the Tag Inspector as name "INITIAL KEY" and Tag Code "TKEY".

How do I get MusicBee to display this in the "Track Information" section? I've tried adding <INITIALKEY>, <INITIAL KEY>, "<INITIAL KEY>" and <TKEY> but it doesn't work, so I guess I'm missing something?
