The only solution to this, for AMG, would be for LMS / MAI to have the
ability to use an AMG ID for these entities. Then, you'd be able to tag
your files appropriately with the correct IDs for Album, Artist,
Composer, etc. MAI could skip the search portion, and instead directly
grab the appropriate URL. The override would enable users to quickly
correct false hits by MAI.
This is how my MCUtils tools work.
Code:
--------------------
$ amg -VV --inc '/id$/'
*** 2.6:
filename: /Users/MrC/Desktop/Temp/MCUtils_TestFiles/7231537/2.6.mp3
albumartistid: <__CLEAR__>
amgartistid: mn0000346336
amgid: mw0000195292
amgmid: mw0000195292
amgrid:
composerid: mn0000582930
tid: mt0042077674
workid:
--------------------
But I think this would require additional work on LMS.
