SongKong

Quote:Sorry your experience so far has not been upto expectation. So firstly I would generally recommend you run SongKong over your whole collection, this gives a much better view of its matching coverage then working one album at a time since it is impossible to predict what albums it will match and what it will not.

Whole collection is too big but I tried on one composer's subdirectory in one genre with only a few works.
SK ran OK and loaded and fingerprinted 430 songs of which 129 were matched to Musicbrainz release and with artwork and 12 with song only.
189 to were matched to Acoustid.

Quote: Looking at your comments I am not clear if you are using FixSongs or Monitor Watch Folder, if using Fix Songs it should create and open a report in your browser, then click on the Song Changes section on the left hand side, it will open up below folders that have been modified, select a folder and it shows the list of files changed on the right hand side, select one of them and it shows all the fields that have been changed with their old and new values. But if using Monitor Watch Folder this continuously watches a folder looking for new folders added to it, it never ends until you have cancelled it, once you have cancelled it a report is then generated that would show changes.

I started by pressing the Fix Songs button. This opened the Monitor Watch Folder. I then pressed Start and the processing ran and reported as noted above. Once the report had opened in my browser I was presented with a list of 8 links down the left hand window with the top link Summary opened in the right hand window. Clicking on the next three links did not give me matched song lists or song changes but just repeated the list of 8 links. The Not Matched to release or song did open up a list of 289 files which had not been matched to release or song. The not matched to release gave me a list of 301 songs not matched and the same with Musicbrainz release. The Discogs was not matched to any of the 430 songs.

In conclusion I have not yet been able to examine the proposed changes for any of the matched songs.

Quote:Regarding the error, if you restart SongKong, select Help:Create Support Files and then email support@jthink.net the zip file that would give me the information required.

File on its way! Will ask my other questions in due course but want to get this off to you so I can hopefully see the proposed changes.
