Summary | 0015347: Auto-Tag: Album Artist gets erroneously recommended | ||||
Description | There are several cases in which Auto-Tag will look up the Title correctly, but then choose the wrong Album Artist (and in one case the wrong artist) a) Rhythm of the Rain - Cascades. Strangely, MM changes the Artist to 'The Cascades' but leaves the Album Artist as 'Cascades' and consequently fails to find (automatically or manually) the album: https://musicbrainz.org/release/74c26c4e-171e-4d31-8cab-c5827a89e451 b) Breathless by Shayne Ward. Auto-tag correctly identifies Shayne Ward as the Artist, but recommends 'Quiet Riot' as the Album Artist, and 'Metal Health' as the Album. It seems to have chosen the wrong Album Artist and therefore the wrong Album (despite having chosen the correct Artist). c) Don't Tell Me by Avril Lavigne. Auto-tag correctly identifies the track, but somehow links to a completely different version of Don't Tell Me (by BlancMange) instead of the Avril Lavigne version (they are not the same song so it's unclear how this happened)! | ||||

Verified these 3 cases in 2150. |
|
I found another case in 2150 that is erroneous: d) Maneater - Hall & Oates. Album Artist is looked up as Daryl Hall and John Oates, and Artist as Hall & Oates. It should be: Artist: Daryl Hall; John Oates (preferable to Hall & Oates) Album Artist: Hall & Oates See: https://musicbrainz.org/artist/debabff3-2559-46e5-862d-ef2a906d7010 |
|
Re-resolving/closing since case d) is another instance of 0015373 (problems handling multi-artist tracks) and moved cased d) to 0015373. |
|
Found another problematic case with 2151: e) Help Me Rhonda - The Beach Boys. Delete all metadata except for Title: Help me Rhonda and then Auto-tag --> MM recommends the correct title, but Artist and Album Artist: The Surfriders!! --> MM doesn't even offer Artist suggestion of The Beach Boys (in the Artist combo-edit)! |
|
Unable to reproduce in current sources. Please retest in next build. |
|
I am also not being able to replicate in 2152 |
|
Verified as fixed in 2152. |
|
f) There seems to be a regression in 2154 in which Album Artists that are initially tagged become empty: 1 Initiatiate auto-tag --> good recommendation 2 Change album to a different album --> Album Artist="" 3 Change album back to the initial recommendation --> Album Artist=""! Can be replicated with Ebony and Ivory or Red Red Wine (or most other tracks) See example: https://www.screencast.com/t/fVSAnsJXZy |
