Plugins for Picard
To install a plugin, download and copy it to directory named 'plugins' either in the Picard application directory or in ~/.config/MusicBrainz/Picard/plugins
on Unix and %HOME%\Application Data\MusicBrainz\Picard\plugins
on Windows.
Plugins
Disc Numbers
Moves (disc X) from releases titles into separate tags (discnumber and discsubtitle).
Feat. Artists
Removes (feat. Artist) parts from track titles.
Cover Art Downloader
Downloads cover art.
Download (remove the old Amazon plugin (amazon.py, amazon.pyc & amazon.pyo) before installing this one)
Last.fm Tags
Use Last.fm tags as "genre".
Download: 1 2 (copy both files to directory plugins/lastfm/
)
Add Cluster As A Release
(Seems buggy at the moment, see 2900)
Generate Cuesheet
- This plugin is not compatible with Alpha14. -AaronCooper
- Nor with PicardQt 0.9.0beta1, Picard log reads, "I: 3084536000 13:11:33 Plugin 'Generate Cuesheet' from '/home/jdlh/.config/MusicBrainz/Picard/plugins/cuesheet.py' is not compatible with this version of Picard." -- JimDeLaHunt 2007-12-05
Release Type
Appends information to EPs and Singles such as " EP" or " (single)" (customisable, see file for details). Useful for separating releases with singles/EPs of the same name.
(This release did not work for me until I added PLUGIN_API_VERSIONS = 0.9.0 to the plugin file, below PLUGIN_VERSION = '1.0' - Grab an edited version here)
Search Plugins
- Launches searches for clusters or releases from PicardQT.
- Please contact BrianFreud with any problems or to request additional search plugins. Update: Sept 15, 2007: All search plugins have been updated to work with alpha 14. The Google plugin also has been updated to allow searching from tracks. Sept 29 update: Track names also now work in the Google search! New SoundtrackINFO search plugin also added. October 19: Added GMR plugin. November 11: Added AMG plugin.

Bonus Disc
Moves (bonus disc: Bonus Disc Title) from album titles to separate tags. (bonusdisc and bonusdisctitle).
- This seems useful, except I'm wondering how media players like iTunes will react when there are now multiple tracks with the same track number and no disc numbers to differentiate/order the tracks. Perhaps I will modify this to set all bonus discs to disc number = 99. -AaronCooper
- Using the Bonus Disc plugin as is, I added the following tagger script functions: $if(%bonusdisc%,$set(discnumber,99),) to set discnumber = 99 for bonus discs and (for iTunes to sort properly) $if(%discnumber%,,$set(discnumber,1)) to make single-disc releases have discnumber = 1. -AaronCooper
Change Encoding
Converts the tags of individual files or clusters between different character encodings. This is often necessary with files that have only ID3v1 tags in a non-Latin encoding. You will probably only need to change the target encoding. If the encoding you're looking for isn't in the list, you can type it in yourself and it will hopefully work. Contact foolip with any questions.
Comments
Luks, I think there's a bug in the Disc# plugin. If you use the following in taggerscript with the plugin enabled, you get more than you'd expect...
$set(album,%album%$if(%discnumber%, \(disc %discnumber%\))) Ought to give: ThisIsAnAlbumTitle (disc 1) Instead, you get: ThisIsAnAlbumTitle (disc 1) (disc 1)

- Would it be possible to write a plugin that would fetch and set the year to the earliest release's release date when a EarliestReleaseRelationshipType exists? -AaronCooper (2007-07-11)
- Seconded. I'd like to be able to name files like "Artist - OriginalYear - Album (releaseyear re-release|remaster)"; I like things to be sorted by original year (ie, the musical "period" of the band), but differentiate between versions (sometimes I have several). So is it possible to retrieve the metadata for a linked object?
- Is there a reference somewhere with all the commands possible with Picard plugins (like webbrowser2.open(url, …) ? -- jesus2099 11:59, 07 August 2007 (UTC)
- Just the existing plugins, and the source itself. -- BrianSchweitzer 19:27, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
- Just a quick request, if it can't be a built in variable... I could easily make use of a %tracklength% variable, be it built in or generated by plugin. -- BrianSchweitzer 07:03, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
- So, if we make any new plugins that might be interesting, is it OK to just post them here? And if so, how do we go about hosting them here if it's necessary? -- Baldrick 2007-11-12T14:39:00
