Erland, several ideas for you to investigate : The advantage of using MUSICBRAINZ_TRACKID (when it exists) is that there would be one unique play_count for all identical tracks files even if the same file exists in different albums. Thyat's what is expected, isn't it ? If the same track exists on 3 albums, you don't want to have 3 count. in the end, what you want is to know how many time the same track was played in total.
Also, Don't you think that if trackstat was able to backup its data in the mp3/flac directories, it would be easier to manage as a backup/restore ? Just like some people use CUE files and keep them along with the music itself, having the backup in the same directory would ensure the stats are kept with the music in all occasion. Another suggestion would be to implement an option to restore data by adding up the stats instead of overwriting (ref. my other post). With that option, someone who gets its stats cleared up and don't notice right away, can use an old backup to add the old data without loosing the new ones. Indeed, I notice that when I retag with Musicbrainz (because tags gets corrected over time), I loose the stats that goes along . -- reniera ------------------------------------------------------------------------ reniera's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40705 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89719 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
