Hey, would it be possible to get this script to find an album based on the artist and title? I'm no programmer but if it could simply query the title, sort the result by year and then retrieve the first album released from the song's artist, that would be great.

Thx and nice work on these sripts,
Baker

The last.fm search in this script isn't working anymore.

Does anyone know the new code to get it working?

edit: ummm I just looked back in the thread, and didn't notice anyone posting the last.fm search code for this script. I wonder which thread I got it from?

[Sammy20]

bump, can anyone help?

I don't know whether this has been posted elsewhere, but it is extremely easy to search AllMusic.com for Artist or Album or Song Title:

ArtistName search:
----------------------------------
"http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=1:" + Replace(ArtistName, " ", "|")
... example: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=am ... das|Priest

AlbumName search:
----------------------------------
"http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=2:" + Replace(AlbumName, " ", "|")
... example: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=am ... tish|Steel

SongTitle search:
----------------------------------
"http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=3:" + Replace(SongTitle, " ", "|")
... example: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=am ... ng|the|Law


NOTE: The "|" is used as a word separator (not "&", not "+" [like Discogs uses], nor any other character).

I too get the dreaded "404 Page not found" messages when I use the LAST.FM option to search for an artist,

Are there anyone else that have this problem ???


X.mas is around the corner....

how difficult would it be to get the album art and other info from them as well

For people who don't know yet:
A solution exists to tag your files from web resources, using "Web Sources Tagger": http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... 1069#41069
For more information (history, possibilities), please take a look in that thread.

It currently works for Amazon (all sites), All Music Guide (AMG), FreeDB, Discogs, Walmart (covers) and DarkTown (covers).
Other scripts already exist but have to be improved (e.g. iTunes (covers), ArtistDirect and MusicBrainz.)

If you want other sites to be supported, please let us know. Or take a look at the above linked forum page to find information on how to create/edit sources scripts yourself (documentation from Mp3Tag).

Hi Steegy,

Thanks for the above script. It works well for me.

Being an Indian there are many songs that dont exist on these sites. Theres a site called www.raaga.com which has a rich database of Indian songs. Will it be possible or easy to get info from that site. Also how do we know which sites support this functionality of searching and getting tags from them.

Thanks in advance.

Hey Unnicorn

Sorry for the late answer. The reason is that I just saw this message.

As it is now, Raaga can't be used with WebSourcesTagger (or Mp3Tag). That's because WST needs a site that uses Form GET (like http://www.raaga.com/channels/hindi/sea ... ic&match=A).
Raaga only allows Form POST (like http://www.raaga.com/channels/hindi/searchresults.asp with variables sent as parameters).
Except for this, Raaga seems to have the right form to use it with WST.

I'll add Form POST to the todo.

Cheers

Hi guys, Is your Web Sources Framework still working?
