Questions / Is it possible to start MusicBee from command line with a set volume?

« on: August 15, 2023, 08:03:32 PM »

I see that /VolumeDown and /VolumeUp are supported, but they seem to take the current volume and decrease and increase it by 10. Is it possible to launch with a static 50, for example?

Can anyone help me with a Regex problem? I'm trying to make a duplicate Musixmatch yaml that'll try to get lyrics for artists with swapped name order.

Example: I have a song titled "Kieru Daydream" by "Kawano Marina". But the Musixmatch URL is https://www.musixmatch.com/lyrics/Marina-Kawano/Kieru-Daydream. Predictably, here's what happens with the updated Musixmatch yaml from a few pages back:

Code

18/01/2022 09:27:38 [INFO] Musixmatch-Update tries to load the lyrics...
18/01/2022 09:27:38 [DEBUG] The constructed URL: http://www.musixmatch.com/lyrics/kawano-marina/kieru-daydream
18/01/2022 09:27:38 [INFO] No lyrics found.
18/01/2022 09:27:38 [DEBUG] no lyrics found from Musixmatch-Update

I'm trying stuff like this, but it seems like it isn't matching:

Code

[regex, '(\w+) (\w+)', '\2 \1']
or
[regex, '([a-z]+) ([a-z]+)', '\2 \1']

Code

18/01/2022 09:37:59 [INFO] Musixmatch-Name-Order tries to load the lyrics...
18/01/2022 09:37:59 [DEBUG] The constructed URL: http://www.musixmatch.com/lyrics/kawano-marina/kieru-daydream
18/01/2022 09:37:59 [INFO] No lyrics found.
18/01/2022 09:37:59 [DEBUG] no lyrics found from Musixmatch-Name-Order

My mistake, I had copied the plugin into the MusicBee folder, but didn't activate it through the preferences menu. Didn't realize I was missing out on so much stuff.

Thank you, Additional Tagging Tools did the trick with copy and paste from clipboard.

If you can bulk copy those values to a text file or to the clipboard, then you will be able to bulk paste to date added field using Additional Tagging Tools plugin. After installing the plugin, use copy tags command.

This sounds like an interesting idea, but I'm not sure how exactly the copy/paste tags tool works. I tried to copy tags and then paste it into a text document, but nothing happened. I think I could get this to work if I could paste tags as plain text, but it seems like the feature only works for directly copying tags from one track to another.

Questions / Problems Importing "Date Added" Data

« on: May 14, 2019, 01:07:17 AM »

I'm trying to import my library from foobar. I've managed to get a lot of stuff over, including most Playback Statistics stuff like Rating and Play Count, by exporting an iTunes library from MusicBee and editing the XML.

However, I'm having problems importing Date Added. I see lines like this in the XML, but editing it and importing the XML doesn't update the Date Added shown in MusicBee.

<key>Date Added</key><date>2019-05-13T18:43:16Z</date>

How can I get this imported to MusicBee?
