I recently set up a cron script to run a quiet beets import on my incoming
music folder every 15 mins, working with resume, incremental and move. I
had incorrectly assumed that I'd correctly set up the duplicates plugin to
delete suspected duplicates in my library using:
duplicates:
delete: yes
I recently checked the logs and discovered that the beets import has been
skipping suspected duplicates with "This album is already in the library!".
I'm in the process of upgrading the quality of existing albums, so I'd
really like some way of automating the replacement process.
I understand that detecting LAME presets has been on the backburner for a
while now <https://github.com/beetbox/beets/issues/116>, however what I'd
like to do is ALWAYS replace the library version. It seems like the
duplicates plugin
<https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/v1.3.17/plugins/duplicates.htmlhttps://beets.readthedocs.io/en/v1.3.17/plugins/duplicates.html>
should be able to do that however I can't seem to get it to do anything
during import. Is this possible or should I go back to the manual import
process?
