mood logic support - now available to devlopers
« on: March 23, 2005, 12:58:04 am »

Hi all,

I was looking at moodlogic and I noticed that they have opened up their databases to developers - any chance of incorporating this ability in media center???

From the mood logic website:

 
MoodLogic is now making its extensive music meta-database available to you to build powerful features and functionalities into your products. This one-of-a-kind music database was developed by MoodLogic over several years using the power of the Internet. Hundreds of thousands of people were asked through surveys on how they feel about songs and artists, and these answers were collected in a massive database. MoodLogic has processed this database using proprietary statistical algorithms and MoodLogic's music taxonomy experts found powerful correlations in the datasets. The result is the world's most in-depth music meta-database containing information on mood, tempo, genre, sub-genre, beat and others on the song level.

You can access MoodLogic’s database through a set of standard, easy-to-use COM components provided by the MoodLogic Component Suite. You can build innovative and intuitive features in your applications based on metadata that was never before available. There is no need to rely on the availability of ID3 tag information in music files, you can control the experience of your customers and ensure that they have a good experience with their music in your application no matter how the file is tagged.

What’s more, you also have access to a rich set of functionalities that come with the MoodLogic Component Suite. While you can use the metadata from the MoodLogic database, features that will change the way your customers experience music are available to you at your fingerprints. These advanced features include rich attribute filtering (canonical artist names, album, genre, mood, tempo, release year and more), Instant Mixing, Smart Mixing (making playlists based on advanced rule sets) and more. The integration of these functionalities is as simple as integrating MoodLogic COM components into your application.

I assume you are only talking about getting access to the MC database.
I believe that it's been stated that that ain't gonna happen.

As for the mood logic product it looks like for $30 you are actually signing up to a service which doesn't support alot of features and is limited to 10,000 songs
A big one off the top is it doesn't support albumns.

i will let you know how much it costs.

All Music Is About $5,000 a month, if someone wants to pay that for me i will make a plug-in for it, that should only be $60,000 a year.

this could be done now with J rivers finger printing of media files.

the problem is there is no access to the fingerprint in the MC SDK and i do not expect there will be any time in the future.

i have talked to matt and JimH in the past but it seems to be top Secret

I can say from some experience I had many issues with Moodlogic.  It messed up many of my files and proved fairly unreliable.  It has not been updated in a couple of years and it only supports MP3 files.

Proceed with some caution...

How bout musicbrainz for fingerprinting ?

Seems like its the only 'fingerprinting" program that can be easily wrapped up into a plugin for MC users.
