GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 339557
Muine does not load ogg composer metadata
Last modified: 2006-10-06 14:25:36 UTC
Muine does not load/offer a way to search through composer metadata in Ogg files. This makes it impossible to search for some classical works in my collection, since the artist is not the composer of the work. Sample files can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Mendelssohn#Media The Violin Concerto in E minor has Composer tags.
Created attachment 65537 [details] [review] Support extra metadata This patch alters the metadata extraction code for ogg/vorbis files. It adds the values for the composer, conductor and ensemble tags to the performers tag in the internal muine metadata model. The result is that I can happily add tracks after searching for "Mendelssohn" in my collection. Previously I had to search by artist name, eg. "Fulda Orchestra".
Of course you should re-import your music to see the effect.
"part" and "opus" should probably be added to the title too.
I'd also like it if live concerts would show up. If ALBUM isn't set, it should look at DATE and LOCATION?
2006-10-06 Wouter Bolsterlee <wbolster@gnome.org> * libmuine/metadata.c: (assign_metadata_vorbiscomment): Load extra metadata into performers metadata field. Although this is not the most elegant solution, it is the least intrusive approach using the current codebase. Fixes bug #339557.
