The reason this does not support CUE files is basically because its
coded in Rust (the bliss-rs library, which does the actual analysis, is
written in Rust) and these are the first ever Rust programs I have
written, so I'm not sure how to run external executables, etc. And as I
had so few CUE files it just made more sense to not bother with these.
The analyser links to ffmpeg, so if CUE splitting were to be supported
I'd ideally just do it in-code rather than calling out to ffmpeg, etc.
But, that will be a non-trivial task. The mixer code itself, which the
plugin invokes, also does not handle CUE files. Earlier versions did,
and it would be trivial to re-add this, I just removed it as the
analyser does not support them.

I guess if there is a high-demand then I can look into it.

For now, you could just use MusicSimilarity configured just for Bliss -
but the analyser used there has not been built for Windows.
