| Summary | 0022328: Auto tag: fails to function correctly when pre-existing metadata is incorrect | ||||
| Description | If, for example, the user has a track: Title: Invisible touch Artist & Album Artist: Phil Collins (instead of Genesis) 1 When the user initiates Auto-tag --> MM looks up incorrect Album metadata suggests Artist/Album Artist: 'The Countdown Singers', Album: Ultimate 80's 2a If the user then attempts 'Lookup via fingerprint...' --> none of the suggested metadata changes! 2b If the user clicks Find more results for Artist or Album --> none of the metadata options changes! 3 If the user then deletes the Artist/Album Artist metadata leaving only 'Title' and initiates Auto-tag --> MM correctly looks up Artist/Album Artist:Genesis, Album: Invisible Touch Considering that MM found the correct track at step 3, wouldn't it make sense that once the user initiates 2a that MM should at least include 'Genesis' in the Artist list? In cases where the existing metadata appears to be incorrect (because there's no match), users shouldn't have to delete incorrect metadata in order to get good lookup results (i.e. in such a case MM's suggestions from step 3 should have been the ones suggested at step 1). | ||||
