MePo Tools - Download ClearArt/CDArt/ClearLogos, Music Video clips and more! (4 Viewers)

What you need to download from youtube? Full link or youtube ID will suffice?

It works with full link. I think the program is very smart. If we just use the full link, then it is easier on our side.

6. Mark artist as done for this session

No, I never thought that you can only add, that if the amount received is less than youtube clips to like the next time to try again if it is the same then do not try.

I think we should only do the "TOP tracks" idea

1. Get list of artists from database
2. Process next artist
3. Check artist not already done this session
4. Get list of top tracks
5. For each track -> Check if "d:\artist - track.ext" exists -> If No -> Trackinfo -> URL -> Check for youtube url -> Download video -> Wait for youtube-dl.exe process to finish [Repeat for ## Top tracks]
6. Mark artist as done for this session
7. Goto #2.

With this design we can't use %Album% in the filename (eg. d:\music videos\%album\%artist - %track.ext) . But the program will run A LOT faster if we do repeat scan. If we want to use %album% option for filename or directory we have to look up the track to find the album before we can see if we already have the video file. I think that will make the program too slow.[DOUBLEPOST=1373971314][/DOUBLEPOST]

I disagree

If we want to check amount received < youtube clips then it takes a long time
we have to use Artist.GetTopTracks then 10x Track.Get.Info -> 10 x check html for youtube video
Then calculate

If we mark artist as already done we can check straight away.

When we reach end of artist list then all artists get marked as not done.

Another issue, download for artists who have MBID or for all?

If MBID then use MBID. If no MBID then use %artist% with autocorrect=on
http://www.last.fm/api/show/artist.getTopTracks

Good idea? Bad idea?

I don't know how many tracks are missing MBID tags.

Unfortunately the name of the album is not in a response from last.fm, and if you parse the page, you can get a lot of errors.

That is, every time we pass a full list? And upload the files that we do not? Are we going to clean the unnecessary? Or will we leave for ever?[DOUBLEPOST=1373971889][/DOUBLEPOST]

No tracks, artists, this can be viewed in MePoTools[DOUBLEPOST=1373971940][/DOUBLEPOST]

I thought so, but decided to ask again

1. To get album we have to look use api to look up track. Lets just forget about album all together

2. I think MePoTools should always store what artist.list.position.name, if it is interrupted. It should always start at that artist.list.positon.name (even if you restart mepo tools). If that artist does not exist in database then reset to start. If MePoTools gets to the end of the artist list then reset to start.

3. Keep files forever

At least initially, so for sure

Maybe you should not? We're still writing the automatic utility does not require human intervention!

If you got up, then stood up! Not many artists in the database think that most no more than 500. And that's about choice for those artists who perform downloads, it would be ideal.

In this example we started with U2. We can not see all music videos. We only see what we have downloaded or tried to download this session.[DOUBLEPOST=1373973123][/DOUBLEPOST]

The reason I mentioned album is that mvcentral actually supports album in filename and can group via album etc...
