Autocorrect is destroying all the genres. The genres are absolutely WACK!
Random Examples: Changes from - To
Pop - Billboard
Electronic - Electronic_rock_general pop
Rock - Top 40
Any ideas on what I’m doing wrong? I have 30,000 plus tracks and I really want to limit the genres to say 20-30 different ones so the genre information becomes practical!
Thanks,
Chris
Of course there is no objective list of what is a ‘Terrible’ genre and what is not, But Jaikoz give syou a lot of control in this area.
Firstly you can get genres from both Musicbrainz and Discogs, but Disocgs genres are alot more stable than Musicbrainz ones so you might want to drop Musicbrainz ones. Secondly if you already have songs with genres you are happy with why change them , you can set Jaikoz to only put in genres for songs that don’t have them already
This is configurable at Preferences:MusicBrainz:AutoFormat 2 and Preferences:Remote Correct: Discogs
Thirdly you can define a genre blacklist , these are genres that will never be used in Jaikoz, in Preferences:Remote Correct:Genre
