I'll only pick a few quick examples of potential issues I'm seeing. But
all of these I see in variations all over your log file. Just looking at
the filenames, as I obviously don't see the real tags. But often they
would correlate:
- Kosheen , Hide U - HitClub.flac
One space too many around the comma? On missing in HitClub?
- Oliver's Army - Elvis Costello & The Attractions.flac
An artist which sometimes is list with or with the band, with "&" or
"and". He's caused me some headache, too.
- Studio Ideas - The Last Waltz Refrain [instrumental version] - The
Band.flac
Additions in brackets (curly, square...). Often they're not part of the
"official" name of a track.
- The blue danube , And der schönen blauwen Donau - Geoff Love and hist
concert orchestra.flac
Double track title, English and German?
- Brandenburg Concerto No.2 in F - Allegro - Bach.flac
Classical. TEN and classical don't go well together.
- Walk Off,Soolaimon,Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show (encore) -
Neil Diamond
Spaces, bracket. Googling the track would often find a "Walk Off /
Soolaimon-Brother..." spelling.
I guess you get the point. As I said: it's picky about those names.
There are many ways to fail.

I did run the unrecognized tracks twice, once the log was about 1000
tracks, second time about 2000.
My music source consists of about 9000 tracks all ripped from
original
CD's and hand crafted for the correct music tags.
If about 25 % of my library remains unknown to smartmix the usage is
seriously limited.
Recognition is simply based on metadata (tags). If there's a difference
in the spelling, recognition can fail. I see you have some French music
in your collection. Would there be particularly lots of those French
tracks in the list of unknown music? Or some artists only?

Michael,
Thanks for the feedback.
See attached 2 runs for unrecognized tracks.
Only 4 tracks are different between the 2 lists, which is minimal, but
since the metadata did not change
I wonder why the lists are not 100 % identical.
Out of the 1926 unrecognized tracks 1180 are from "Various" albums which
is how I define compilations
from different artists.
Could you also advise on my second post about the standard mixes and why
they stop generating a playlist if used
several times in a short time span.
Francis.
