Discogs Release ID

[fidtheforce]

Is there a way to configure the CD Ripper to auto add the Discogs Release ID as a tag in FLAC and/or MP3?

Sorry there is no provision.

In that case I will live without
Sometimes CD Ripper can't find information in Discogs about a CD that exists in the Discogs database.
Would you be open to add a feature that allow manual entry of the Discogs Release ID?
This would allow CD Ripper to always have a tag for a CD.

R17 has this provision on the new Manual Metadata search page

Re: Discogs Release ID

Hello Thank you for including manual metadata search in the software.
I have tested the feature and it doesn't always work. Maybe I am not using it properly so let me ask you a few questions.
I guess that entering the release or master URL of discogs have to be in the Artist?
I have tried with discogs full URL and the release or master number but the tool often keeps on searching forever.
Also when I use discogs master URL or number shouldn't I see the list of all the releases so that I can choose one?
Here are some screeshots of what I experience.

Thanks

Re: Discogs Release ID

It only works with releases, so you use Discogs and browse to an exact release, for example:

https://www.discogs.com/New-Order-Movement/release/3918452

As soon as you copy that url to the clipboard, the page will update in dBpoweramp (no need to paste into the program).

Ah that is great thank you!!!
Any possibilities of adding the import of the discogs release album art at the same time in the near future?
That would really make the software top notch.

R17.1 in the testing section of this forum does this already (for Windows).

I was about to ask... can I install the test version on the same PC as the stable release? I'm eager to take this for a test

Re: Discogs Release ID

I have just tested R17.1 and import of discogs release album art doesn't seem to work when making a manual metadata search.
If I understand how the software works, by default when a CD is inserted CD Ripper will fetch the album art from Perfect Tunes and display it.
What I see in R17.1 is that after this is done if I perform a manual metadata search the album art fetched from Perfect Tunes will not be displayed anymore and No Album Art will be displayed.
Let me know if there are some specific test you want me to do to help solve this.

Yes install over the top of your existing, do not uninstall the existing when asked.
