hope this feature returns it’s one of cider’s best things

#

saves a lot of time in editing file names (and cider doesnt even count edited file names so that feature was the only option)

#

The artist literally get filtered to match the exact song on the lastfm website

#

You shouldn’t have to change anything

#

We filter it with lastfm api

#

So it gets the correct artist

#

Not featured

tranquil rock
#

how it was //
how it is

#

must me something on my end then?

tranquil rock
#

@rigid tree any solution?

rigid tree
#

lemme have look

#

the only thing that can cause this is there being an api error

#

for it to default to basic stuff

#

check your log file for lastfm errors

#

well it seems that some of the songs do have a lastfm correction that has the features artist

#

the song u showed returns this:

#
[16:26:55.720] [info]  {
  name: 'Tatoué',
  url: 'https://www.last.fm/music/Sasha+Lopez+&+Ester+Peony/_/Tatou%C3%A9',
  artist: {
    name: 'Sasha Lopez & Ester Peony',
    url: 'https://www.last.fm/music/Sasha+Lopez+&+Ester+Peony'
  }
}```
rigid tree
#

ok managed to get it down with a more compressed version of the api call

#
[17:39:50.990] [info]  {
  artist: 'Sasha Lopez',
  listeners: '0',
  image: [
    { size: 'small', '#text': '' },
    { size: 'medium', '#text': '' },
    { size: 'large', '#text': '' },
    { size: 'extralarge', '#text': '' },
    { size: 'mega', '#text': '' },
    { size: '', '#text': '' }
  ],
  mbid: '',
  tags: {
    tag: [ '[object]', '[object]', '[object]', '[object]', '[object]' ]
  },
  name: 'Tatoué - Single',
  playcount: '0',
  url: 'https://www.last.fm/music/Sasha+Lopez/Tatou%C3%A9+-+Single'
}```
#

whenever the ci gets fixed if u get that build it should be all good

oh i also just noticed that together with removing the featuring artist cider stopped removing the - single and - ep

rigid tree
#

just lookin at how lastfm does things

#

eventhough a few of the songs with all artists fail to have correct album covers, they do appear to be the correct page on lastfm

#

and afaik only albums with have the single or ep tags

#

not the songs

tranquil rock
#

the way lastfm works is very confusing sometimes

#

a lot there are a lot of pages like 1 & 2 so cider is probably just scrobbling to the one that's most silimar, and since the page exists it just goes to it

#

the switch that removed feat. artists worked great however that code was done

#

i remember it that at the start it had a problem with artists that had & or , like tyler, the creator would just scrobble as tyler but later on it was fixed

tranquil rock
#

messaging again so it doesnt get archived

limber pawn
#

Any updates on this? This was one of my favorite features of Cider, a shame it got removed

tranquil rock
#

exactly really hope it gets fixed soon

tranquil rock
#

checked the new branch build which has the togggle again but it doesnt work with all songs
