Show whether a match option is a duplicate #351
Comments
@sampsyo - I'm noticing that during the import process, duplicates are not queried by a musicbrainz ID as I had expected, but actually by a query for the album and albumartist, making the concept of a duplicate more "fuzzy" than I had thought it was. Lines 659 to 662 in 9f945a7
The feature I was planning to add to beets was to show whether a match option was an exact musicbrainz match. Is the latter something you'd be happy to have in beets? And if so, should I incorporate it into the same pull request? |
Sounds interesting! Sure, matching my MusicBrainz release ID seems like a reasonable option—would this be a new configuration option? It would be great if the match-choice screen used the same behavior as the post-facto duplicate detector, whatever that's configured to be. |
Great idea - allow the user to choose what the definition of a "duplicate" is in the config. |
Additionally to choosing the definition of a duplicate it would be nice if we could display more information for those duplicates. Related issues: |
In the candidate chooser screen, we should "preview" whether the album already exists in the library (i.e., whether the duplicate checker will be tripped if the album is selected). Suggestion due to @willscott.
