===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 [[User:foolip|foolip]] with any questions.

Generate Cuesheet

Download

  • 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)

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
