However, if I archive analysis, this stores Fingerprint and Analysis (mix data), and thus wouldn't need to re-analyse. And if "List Duplicates" doesn't require PUIDs, what other reasons are there for PUIDs. As genpuid seems to store completely different fingerprint, analysis and PUID tags from MusicIP GUI, there doesn't seem to be much point to genpuid either. I run MusicIP headless, with Web UI to add new music and analyse, but this doesn't archive analysis data. I thought I'd automate by using genpuid, but it seems that maybe it would still be better to open MusicIP UI to archive analysis from time to time, as genpuid seems to analyse every file referenced in m3lib every time it is run, if I want it to store tags in source files and also update the m3lib file. And it stores duplicate tags, so this is a bit wasteful. Another curiosity I have is with the SBS Web UI Song > More Info > View Tags display: MUSICMAGIC DATA: AgEAJ7QTjLKgldiKhEbYjk4UhKeCNoiWDwSnVBgMgAHp9IABlJopD6tbgAHK9I75hLiAAcVQ8ZTBKoABgAHBaBnY2hamvqjTgAKAAZNEmba/NYMs67NDiJWJgwmDxeY2lwgzxY8q42+DDooP+satcZdjxveProS9gAHGuLj05wusVICevl35reOapYKyyYFNgvY= MUSICMAGIC FINGERPRINT: (756 Bytes) The MUSICMAGIC DATA tag appears as a long text area box with a scrollbar (quite messy), whereas the MUSICMAGIC FINGERPRINT only reports the length of the data tag. Maybe there is something special in SBS to ignore reporting fingerprint data, but not the DATA tag?
