ToDo :

pense bête :

itunes : pouvoir noter sur l’interface et que cette notation prévale sur les autres (itunes et iphone) pour noter quand on est “ailleurs” … pareil liste de pense bete et compagnie lié a la musique sur l’interface comme tool au cas ou 0

pushd popd dirs :

Specific Track(s)/Album(s) to watch :

  • Kool Keith - KHM Game
  • RZA - Digital bullet
  • OC - Time’s up bootleg <rename to> Time’s up
  • “TOOOOGOOOOD” stuffs are now space stripped (replace with “_” in folder name).
  • one of the jheist is now in “work in progress”
  • worldwide programme 1 album as test (marked in one of my postit … no info)
  • the pharcydes (same as above … or maybe just stuff with folder.jpg)

Short Term :

  • Rename with a matching (and rather complex set of) regexp (may dig into Automator)
    • Find files with Upper Case symbols or filename of tracks not beginning with a ‘0’ …
  • Last thing to do when the library is clean enought and just before the final import : a last `touch -` so that rsync or whatever we use can rely on modification date (or not).
  • For the final import, check what happens with modified files (referring to “specific track”)
  • Import XML file into fresh iTunes library.
  • Find a way to transfert “archives playlist” and sync them between two users (p2p or client/server)
  • Find relevant rsync script or command.
  • Look for possible “hook” to rsync action or create a bash script to open the playlist and stuffs …

iTunes Library valuable informations

  • Rating,
  • Last listen,
  • Listening count,
  • isPart of a playlist,
  • Dig into ~/Library/ for user infos :
    • ~/Library/preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist : some very valuable informations about general iTunes’ preferences

Long Term :

  • Check folder.jpg resolution and sort them by size or resolution to find bad quality artwork (seems simple with Rampeur’s PHP framework)
  • Add folder icon to the whole library
  • Find a way to share recommandation between two users (possibly using playlist in XML or M3U or TXT format - see the export playlist entry in iTunes menu - …)
  • Use CoverScout (or something else) to find (rare) mp3 files where artwork is still missing
  • Use Dupin to find duplicates.

Spotted problem

  • Track ID seems to be unique within a library but unlikely the same between two library (import order may be the reason)
  • Manually editing XML iTunes Library won’t show up in iTunes … Possible fix???
