What do we have
- Mutagen fully working
- Questionable Tags clarified
- Metadata INI file developed
What are we trying to get
- Program running on Music server to tag everything
What are we not sure of?
- Whether Mutagen works on Music server or not?
- What tags to use to make info in the limited fields provided by Winamp, iTunes look good
- INI parser to get all info out
What do we do
- quick remote test of Mutagen
- list all tags:values in use
- finish parser
Detail
- "track number" is explicit, because it can be error-prone and annoying to rearrange lines
- "conductor" is unseen at this point, so fill it in as performer, can be rearranged later because we have the role filled in.
- the human editor is responsible for using correct characters for various fields (encoding)
- "performer", "composer" etc can be multi-value, use ', ' to separate; use ';' to separate fields
- mark any field without data 'N/A'
- UTF8 with BOM will mess up the first char '[' in the first row
- in ini parser, all strings have to be explicitly unicoded into UTF-8
