Good stuff guys. I like the idea of leveraging the existing MusicIP "stuff" as much as possible, but at the same time any future plans should involve AcoustID (since it's open-source we won't ever have to go through this kind of situation again).
In the meantime I am still genpuid'ing away. I am running it in large batches, prior to writing the rest of my track tags, since I don't fully trust genpuid not to mangle existing tags (probably being too paranoid, but I remember reading something or other about some version of MusicIP doing that). What I have found is that if I run genpuid against a single album, it usually finds PUIDs for some number of tracks (oftentimes 1 or 2, but sometimes even more). Whereas if I run it with the -r option against a folder with lots of albums it ends up doing the full analysis on almost every track. Maybe 1 or 2 tracks out of the entire group of 40-100 albums will have a PUID tag. Makes me wonder if their server is being DDOS'ed (or otherwise overloaded) and they just haven't noticed or don't care. Depending on how genpuid submits fingerprints for PUID-lookup (looks like it's in batches) it seems to get fouled up and just ends up performing local analysis. Which is all fine and dandy since I have a fast quad-core processor and lots of time. Just interesting. And if someone ever sets up a third party database I'd be happy to submit data for all my albums (over 700 at this point). I'll keep an eye on this thread. Thanks all. -- bookemdano ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bookemdano's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34640 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84338 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
