I have extended FLAC.pm to support more of the tags described in
http://reactor-core.org/ogg-tagging.html and
http://www.gophernet.org/articles/vorbiscomment.html, such as ENSEMBLE,
PERFORMER, OPUS, and PART.
The FLAC.pm file, modified from revision 9130, is attached. I would
like to know if anyone else finds these changes useful, and if they can
be incorporated into the 6.5b1 SVN source.
These changes improve SlimServer support for classical and jazz music.
They are not ideal, but they allow me to tag FLAC files and use the
information in SlimServer without changes to the database schema. I
hope that more sophisticated support for these tags will be added to
SlimServer in the future.
The following mappings append (rather than replace) entries in the
hash:
DESCRIPTION => COMMENT,
ENSEMBLE => BAND,
OPUS => COMMENT,
PERFORMER => TRACKARTIST,
In addition, the following mappings are applied if the PART tag
exists:
TITLE => ALBUM
PART => TITLE
PARTNUMBER => TRACKNUM
(Note that the original ALBUM and TRACKNUMBER tags are discarded when
the PART tag exists.) This supports multiple movements in classical
music, so that you can tag files like this:
ALBUM=An Isaac Stern Vivaldi Gala
TITLE=Concerto for 3 Violins in F Major
PART=Allegro
PARTNUMBER=1
TRACKNUMBER=4
ARTIST=Antonio Vivaldi
COMPOSER=Antonio Vivaldi
OPUS=RV 551
