[kid3] [Bug 481394] Ability to sort search results in the import screen
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481394 --- Comment #4 from Ben Wilson-Hill --- I can live with that my friend - sounds like it would involve a fairly significant rewrite. I wish it was something I could help you with. Thanks for the tip with the URL search though. I can't get it to work with or without the API key, but I'll experiment some more. I'm sure it's something I'm missing Kid3 is still easily the best tagger I've used, so thank you for your efforts mate. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481394 --- Comment #3 from Urs Fleisch --- Ah, you mean the album results dialog where you select the album to import. The problem with this dialog is that it is quite generic, i.e. not only for Discogs (where there are often many results) but also for the other import sources like MusicBrainz and Amazon. The generic API for this dialog is quite simple, just a mapping of a single text to an internal ID. So whereas it would be probably possible to provide multiple attributes in the case of Discogs and display them as a table, this might not be possible for other sources. Originally, the import dialog was made for freedb.org, this was a long time ago and today, it would probably no longer be the "reference import source". Therefore I will probably not change this soon, so in the meantime you could help yourself with a feature which is only available for Discogs: You can use the web interface of Discogs with all its sophisticated search attributes and once you have found the exact release, you can use its URL as the search term in Kid3, the album list then contains only that single URL. This might not work if you use an API token for Discogs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

The track-listing is quite manageable, it's the album list I find I have the problem. If it could show maybe a little more information - eg. Country of release, or something like that, that could make identifying the specific release more efficient is what I was thinking. Or even the ability to search against release number could be a good solution?! Just to give you an idea, I was looking up "In Utero" by Nirvana. There are over 400 entries in Discogs, and adding more search terms in Kid3, I can eliminate most irrelevant results. I can find the details on the website, but matching it against the search results in Kid3 can be a bit tedious in cases like these. Just a way to sort those results more easily would be great. Let me know if some screenshots could be useful. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
