Nov 20, 2009 issue 3 (musicbrainz support not working) commented on by kevin.mccarthy - I have a patch for this that I made a year ago. I've refreshed it against the latest svn and did a quick test. It still seems to work. It adds a new script called musicbrainz-tool, which should go in the same place as cddb-tool. This program requires the musicbrainz2 python libraries (python-musicbrainz2 package on debian). If it works for you, please let me know and vote for this bug.

Earlier this year Nov 17, 2009 issue 23 (Request for tarred distribution files.) reported by datamatrix - Hi, at the moment two OS are producing their own tar files of abcde's source code so they can produce packages, and others would like to update their packages/ports. Please would you consider producing an official tar for 2.4.0 and future tagged releases, it would make life much easier for OS packagers. Thanks very much.

Nov 13, 2009 issue 22 (Something wrong with UTF-8 tagging) commented on by markpeloquin - It seems like it uses ISO-8859-1, since I've been able to do it. I just got an album with an oe ligature, and entered a world of pain (exaggeration). abcde is interpreting the multi-byte characters as multiple single-byte characters. I don't know how this can get communicated between the editor and abcde. Two things I'm sure are needed for UTF-8: (1) LANG needs to be set in your environment to ll_TT.UTF-8 (e.g. en_US.UTF-8); and (2) use Musicbrainz or CDDB with CDDBPROTO=6 in abcde.conf for the UTF-8 protocol. Then for my editor, I have tried messing with the fileencoding and encoding settings to no avail. This is further complicated by my mangling script for filenames (e.g. œ -> oe, ç -> c, ð -> dh), which seems to be receiving whatever encoding was saved.

I can see no setting to determine whether the tags are intended to be ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8, nor anything that says that abcde doesn't support UTF-8; if it doesn't it would be great if it could, but perhaps in the meantime the lack of support could be indicated clearly in the man page?

Thank you so much. One thing that I would like to suggest would be for the user to be able to have rules for deciding between entries when there are multiple CDDB options. This could automate the process just a little bit more. Some options could be: "shortest" --- choose the CDDB which has, on average, the shortest titles "no parentheses" --- if the only difference between entry1 and entry2 is that entry2 has parentheses at the end (for example, (live)), choose entry1. "less caps" --- if the only difference is case (e.g. "is" vs "Is"), choose the entry which has fewer letters capitalized. "first" "random" ... a lot more I know perl and regular expressions pretty well. I would be happy to write a perl script that does some of this if it would help. What a wonderful program!
