From discogs Performer missing

for some time now i have been seeing several bugs when i import performer and composer from discogs into jaikoz 11.5.1., used when no data in musicbrainz.

a) I see many examples where the pianist is missing. (actually always)

b) for some tracks only single performers instead of additional performers

c) not all performer imported (dificult to dedect) (Missing Sharel Cassity on Essence by Michel Camilo)

same behavior in songkong lite.

Hi, thanks for this

a) There is nothing in Discogs database to distinguish between a Performer (i,e piano) and other non music l roles such as Photography, but we only want musical performers in the Performer field so we have a list of instruments to compare with to decide if performance role. Unfortunately for some reason the Piano role is missing, will ensure fixed for next releases

b) for some tracks only single performers instead of additional performers
So here on tracks 7,8 and 9 the Trombonist is credited and I think for some reason this is preventing the other artists being credited when in fact the four other performers should be on each track, I will look into this in more detail later.

c)Would be useful if you show results in Jaikoz/SongKong

Hi Paul
c) see last picture. Imported 16 performers, in discogs 18
Pianist and Sharel Cassity missing

maybe the problem is
Barcode (Text): 4 547366 396485 with Sharel
Barcode: 1 92641 06466 1 without Sharel

Hi, so we know why Pianist is missing, and yes Discogs has two versions of the album

https://www.discogs.com/release/13542141-Michel-Camilo-Essence (4 547366 396485)
https://www.discogs.com/release/14183982-Michel-Camilo-Essence (192641064661)

and only the first has the Sheryl Cassity credit so I guess the songs were matched to the other album although I cannot see which one from screenshot, so no issue with the applications here apart from the piano issue we have already covered.

Both Jaikoz

and SongKong

allow you to force a match to a particular release.

b)
In SongKong Lite could you please run Create Support Files so I can check results and settings.

b) fixed for SongKong - https://jthink.atlassian.net/browse/SONGKONG-2580

a) fixed for both Jaikoz and SongKong

b) fixed for Jaikoz - https://jthink.atlassian.net/browse/JAIKOZ-1466

So should all be working for next releases of both Jaikoz and SongKong

Thank you
Does it mean the track performer will not be imported, but only the release performer will be added?

No, that’s is what is currently happening. But now fixed so now will add both.

Now fixed in SongKong 10.5

I am abroad and will test as soon as possible, thank you

works perfect with songkong 10.5 lite
thanks

friendly request.
I would be happy to use the update. I prefer to use Jaikoz.
best regards

The fix will be in the next release of Jaikoz, but I dont know when that is.

Hi, fix now availble in Jaikoz 11.9

Thank you for the long awaited update, I still have many albums to tag.
Unfortunately, the first shot was already negative. Jazz sabbath is a trio, with other performers on tracks 1, 5 and 7


by Euge Groove not all performers are imported.


in version 11.5.1 Euge Groove as Tenor Saxophonist was imported.

So looking at first screenshot beforehand it was only adding the release performers, and now it is only adding the track performers ?

Jazz Sabbath in Songkong

  1. track there is missing bassist, because of elecrtic upright bass?
    Track 2,3,4,6 empty

by Euge groove is missing electric piano (piano is ok) and saxophones

I assume you mean when showing results in SongKong spreadsheet , if you run in SongKong do you get correct results, please try and post screenshot.
