Audio Tag Lookup Year Only
« on: March 12, 2025, 02:45:47 am »

Is there a way to lookup the year of an album only, and have the year inserted into the tag.  For some reason a have A LOT of audio tracks that are without a date.  Everything else on the tag is perfect and I don't want to let yadb change the tag other than inserting the date.  Is that possible?

Lookup Date From Last.Fm

Right click on your selection > Library Tools > Lookup Date From Last.Fm

This should do what you're asking. The [Year] field is derived from [Date].

Ok, I knew I couldn't be that retarded.  I'm assuming that option is only available on MC 33.  Is that right.  Apparently, I only have MC 32 and that option is not there.  If I upgrade to 34 will that option be there?

I just bought MC34 and installed MC 33 (since there are no 34 builds yet).  That lookup option is there, and seems to be working perfectly.  Thanks marko!

Here's something odd.  When I try looking up dates now, the progress window disappears halfway through the process and now of the selected tracks have any date data added to their tags.  These are very common albums too.
