Hi Adrian, your fast, helpful replies never cease to amaze me. I run beets almost 24/7 churning though a massive backlog of old music so am getting to know the app reasonably well now.
One point in your last reply: > 2) Could you please give me a bit of info regarding the plugin path? what are you putting in that plug in folder? I thought plugins were installed from the command prompt? > There’s no need to use it unless you’re installing plugins in a weird, nonstandard way. I'm running the linuxserver|beets container which has a number of pre-installed plugins. If I want to add another plugin not included in the container, is this where the plugin path may come in handy? Do you have some examples of how to add a plugin using the plugin path?
