I brief update status.

1) I just fix multiple performers bug in flac analyzer.

2) nmm:albumArtist seems to be related to DB structure and is not a
coding bug. I just added nmm:albumArtist to SDO and now there is a
nmm:albumArtist in nmm:MusicAlbum. This is the code I added:
     nmm:albumArtist
     a rdf:Property, nrl:DefiningProperty ;
     rdfs:subPropertyOf nco:contributor ;
     rdfs:label "album artist" ;
     rdfs:comment "Album artist" ;
     rdfs:domain nmm:MusicAlbum ;
     rdfs:range nco:Contact .

This looks good. I am only concerned about having performer and producer on the tracks and artist on the album. Shouldn't that be in sync somehow? After all an album is also produced, right? A compilation has a producer and each track has a possibly different producer...

I will upload a patch to Review Board for the first one but, what must I
do with the second one?

The normal approach is to create a ticket at https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/oscaf/

    Hi,

    I detect next issues with music albums scanning flac and mp3 formats:

    1) Performers:

      * mp3: supports it but it wrongly adding nmm:albumArtist too and
        this must be related to nmm:MusicAlbum.
      * flac: only adds one performer, the last added to the file?.
        nmm:musicArtist it's not imported and an error is launched:
        "Cannot set values for abstract property
        'http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2009/02/19/nmm#albumArtist'
        
<http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2009/02/19/nmm#albumArtist'>.".

    Solution:

      * 0 to n nmm:albumArtist resources must be added to nmm:MusicAlbum.
      * 0 to n nmm:performer resources must be added to nmm:MusicPiece.


    2) Albums:

      * there is no url in nmm:MusicAlbum so two different albums with
        same name are considered one unique resource.
      * determine album url is tricky, you need to obtain the url from a
        track, a method complicated because previous problem.

    Solution:

      * add nie:url to albums.
      * two albums with same name but different path are different
        albums. This have a side effect with sets if sets are in
        different paths, but I think is better that sets are considered
        different albums, than two different albums are the same
        resource. On the other side, this could be handle with some
        smart path detection assuming some kind of organization with
        paths. Other solution could be using nmm:albumArtis to determine
        if two albums are different but, then we have the problem with
        various artists compilations.
      * added nfo:depiction as a cover, an image that could be handled
        by Bangarang or Nepoogle.
      * maybe more nfo:depiction for scans?


    3) Genres:

      * mp3: is not working.
      * flac: works fine, supporting unlimited genres.

    Solution:

      * bug with mp3 files must be fixed.


    4) Sets:

      * there is no total tracks per set.
      * the total tracks is equal to the total tracks number in the last
        track scanned.

    Solution:

      * a solution similar as seasons in tvshows.
      * a total tracks and a total tracks per set must be handled.

    I'm only using flac and mp3 so the same or other issues could be in
    other music formats.

    Sets problems is a minor issue, but the other three, must be fixed.

    As practically all my music is in flac format I will try to fix
    problems 1 and 2 in flac analyzer, I'm crossing my fingers because
    is C++, but I wish to hear comments/suggestions before begin to code.
