Questions / Re: "Band" Tags, Album Artists, and Albums Being Split UP
Last post by Mayibongwe on April 23, 2024, 06:46:20 PM   |  Started by kawika
Is there a way to force the album to show as one album in the listing, disregarding the different band members? My collection is almost at 55,000 tracks, so moving the band field isn't an easy solution and I'd rather not lose all my data entry for artist accuracy's sake.
You can unselect album artist from the drop-down menu appearing on this screenshot:

While navigating the Internet, I like listening to the radio via MusicBee. I have  dozen of stations on the Radio tab and I often switch radio stations.
MusicBee window is always minimized, so I have to maximize, click on the station, sometimes scroll, and minimize. Fast forward and rewind buttons are both inactive when the window is open or minimized.
When the radio is playing, the small pop-up control menu which appears above the cursor on the taskbar, it only has the play and stop buttons active.
Please, enable fast forward and rewind buttons so the user can switch stations without opening the program window.

i'm doubtful that google translate can do this  ;D
Google translate can transliterate, in fact:
if one sets 'Russian' as input language but types a word in the Latin alphabet, the system will propose at least one possible transliteration.

Questions / Playlist exports in all caps
Last post by benshaw on April 23, 2024, 02:33:58 PM   |  Started by benshaw
Hi all, I figure I must be doing something wrong or this would have come up for someone else, and I couldn't find a similar issue:

I'm trying to export a bunch of playlists from MusicBee into my Jellyfin install (putting them in a folder on my NAS basically). I've tried everything I could find online and nothing was working (the playlists were created, but empty) until I realised that MusicBee is exporting my playlists in ALL CAPS so my NAS (a Linux system) isn't recognising the paths.

To test this I manually edited two lines of a playlist to the correct case and the songs showed up in Jellyfin immediately.

The file path on my server mounted as a Windows share is (for example):

Code
Z:\Adolescents\Adolescents\03 Wrecking Crew.mp3

With the "use Unix file path convention" and "use relative paths" toggled ON, with a "map base file paths..." I get this as an output:

Code
../ADOLESCENTS/ADOLESCENTS/03 WRECKING CREW.MP3

Which throws an error when Jellyfin tries to scan it.

Is this normal behavior? I tried it with both playlists imported to MusicBee, and playlists created fresh in the app. I'm using version 3.5.8447 Store

Questions / Re: Upmix to 2.1 - With solution
Last post by SurfRat on April 23, 2024, 02:02:10 PM   |  Started by SurfRat
Found an even simpler solution:

On my Marantz AV receiver, set front L and R speakers to small. Redirects stereo to 2.1 including sub.

Works for Spotify to.

how do you absolutely correctly transliterated my nick to russian? i'm doubtful that google translate can do this  ;D
Well, I learnt a little bit of Slavonic in the past, but didn't have the occasion to take the class for a long time, unfortunately.

Courage and confidence for your health problems (and all other concerns...)

Questions / Re: Upmix to 2.1 (with solution)
Last post by SurfRat on April 23, 2024, 10:33:51 AM   |  Started by SurfRat
Hi,

Found a solution using FlexASIO which does not run in exclusive mode. This gives me 2.1 in MusicBee.

Config:
Out 0 - LF
Out 1 - RF
Out 2 - None
Out 3 - LFE
Out 4 - None
Out 5 - None

Boroda resides in Russia and from all reports things are a little bit unsettled there at the moment

as for all this shit happening in Russia/Ukraine

I was referring to the Moscow concert hall attack, but either way I'm glad you're doing OK.

Welcome to the forum kawika

'Band' is an ancient description of what all software that I know of call 'album artist' these days.
(for ID3 it would be the tag TPE2)

And that tag is intended for keeping the tracks of an album together.
For band members you could use 'performer' tags, and for 'guest' artists you could use the 'guest artist' tag.
