I was able to get recipes to work by copying recipes.xml file from a 1.9
Windows install into the same user directory (~/.MusicMagic on my
machine) and now I can choose recipes on the interfaces that support
them (DynamicMix and Sugarcube) as always with MusicIP its hard to
understand when parameters make a difference because when MusicIP is
bad, it's oh so bad.

I used to freely copy the databases back and forth between machines
until for some reason my production instance :) just wouldn't scan any
more so I would always have to scan on an old machine. The error would
eventually always be "[0:00] Fingerprint failed (mis-execution):" when
adding any new songs with some licensing failure in the beginning so I
tend to be more careful. Since this would persist until I rebuilt the
whole db which could take weeks in my case, although I've moved to
archiving tags now so it shouldn't be as bad now.

My hope is go to the musicip going on a linux vm on my desktop and then
link the config directory to the headless config files on my nas. That
way I can use the gui for filtering, tweaking and scanning then refresh
the db periodically from the web ui.

I'm responding to this now because I was searching on moods again and I
had never come across this thread this before. I've found so far if I
make the mood too large the process times out before MusicIP can get
back to LMS, but reducing the mix to 7 songs did the trick. I'm trying
to narrow it down to see how useful it is. What is nice is once the
moods are working and you can see them through the lms ui you can edit
and add .m3u files as needed with out any rescans or restarts.

I'm wondering what granularity the moods use? I.e do they use the
style/variety from mmm.ini? I will have to play more.

Thanks for this tip another tool in the arsenal in the struggle for the
perfect mix!
