[ajs]

The idea is good, and I wanted to do it, but have not yet figured out how to implement it.

If you have records from the past failures you have my full support on testing.

This must be sought in the archives of this forum, in private messages, in e-mail messages, to remember with which actors and albums it was because it was a long time ago.
The difficulty is that the definition of an MBID is universal and works for both Actors and Albums, and in each case there are problems. Those. the search order for Actors can give one result, while for Albums another.

I can download Japanese tracks for testing.
I work in a Japanese company.

You can easily control the returned object type by the search query:

Artist list
http://musicbrainz.org/ws/2/artist/?query=artist:"Frank Sinatra"
Return type in the XML output: artist-list

Album list (release-group-list)
http://musicbrainz.org/ws/2/release-group/?query=artist:"Frank Sinatra" AND release:"My Way: The Best Of Frank Sinatra"
Return type in the XML output: release-group-list

It would be really cool to make the FH search results more precise!
As allways, you will have my full support on extensive testing.

I can download Japanese tracks for testing.

I can also download, but I don’t really like it, and lately I prefer to listen to music on audio cassettes than in MP.

Really?
I know some fans of Vinyl records - but for audio cassettes - interesting!

I love MediaPortal to play digital music!

Yes!

Yes, and there are many of us

I love MediaPortal to play digital music!

It’s easier and faster for me from the cassette and the sound is more pleasant.
