Discogs Tagger

[so_la_la]

When I open the plugin page under preferences and click "Configure" all it states is "Discogs (1.0.1.) and I confirm this with OK. Nothing else to do...
It did not ask for any discogs.com page to be loaded on the first startup

Hi,
I've got the same prob here with some of my albums.

My guess would be that discogs is somehow differentiating between CD and Vinyl only releases.

Short test gives tags for this CD/LP
https://www.discogs.com/ABBA-Gold-Greatest-Hits/master/12249

but not for this Vinyl only:
https://www.discogs.com/The-Movies-India/release/766426

I have added Discogs plugin and put in my PIN, then went into preferences tags 2 and made sure it is there and moved its priority to 1 and saved. I then closed MB and restarted then tried auto tag album entered Jerry Reed in album artist and The Bird in album then click find and I get 5 results of which none are right. I do not get any from Discogs but when I go to Discogs site and search it there the information is there but is not from MB album auto-tagger. So it looks like it is not accessing Discogs plugin.

I tried today another album using Auto tag by album and Discogs found the album so the plugin is working. I tried the album mentioned in the first post and it still does not find it even though I can find it in Discogs site so why unsure. I am just starting in converting cassettes to digital so I have many months ahead so I hope auto tagging works for most else it will be a slow process.

This kind of works, but not for all, for exempel some multiple cd's, often its just the first cd it do tags on not the rest (even if its on discogs), and many vinyls that does not have cd-release dont work ether, like:

https://www.discogs.com/Porter-Wagoner-Blue-Moon-Of-Kentucky/release/5017532

Is it possible to fix this? Or maybe do when doing a search add so you can choose to search on the release number like "5017532" as above?

I recently started trying to store full release dates in my collection. I've discovered that you can put a full date in the year field and MusicBee splits it into the TDAT and TYER fields nicely. The only problem is I can't find a source for the dates. Discogs stores the date. Could you add an option to get the full date in mm/dd/yyyy instead of just the year? That'd be amazing.

So do I, but it always works second time. See this: https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=26981.0

i am not able to reproduce any issues so could you run this debug version and send me what is at the end of the error log:

you will also need an updated patch version:

Here you are:

Code
