This plugin aims to address the shortcomings of the %title function, as
brought up in issues #152, #3298 and an initial look to improvement with
#3411. It supplies a new string format command, `%titlecase` which
doesn't interfere with any prior expected behavior of the `%title`
format command.
It also adds the ability to apply titlecase logic to metadata fields
that a user selects, which is useful if you, like me, are looking for
stylistic consistency and the minor stylistic differences between
Musizbrainz, Discogs, Deezer etc, with title case are slightly
infuriating.
This will add an optional dependency of
[titlecase](https://pypi.org/project/titlecase/), which allows the
titlecase core logic to be externally maintained.
If there's not enough draw to have this as a core plugin, I can also
spin this into an independent one, but it seemed like a recurring theme
that the %title string format didn't really behave as expected, and I
wanted my metadata to match too.
- [x] Documentation. (If you've added a new command-line flag, for
example, find the appropriate page under `docs/` to describe it.)
- [x] Changelog. (Add an entry to `docs/changelog.rst` to the bottom of
one of the lists near the top of the document.)
- [x] Tests. - Not 100% coverage, but didn't see a lot of other plugins
with testing for import stages.
The data_source penalty was not being calculated correctly because
`_get_distance` was being called for **all** enabled metadata plugins
which eventually meant that matches were being penalised needlessly.
This commit refactors the distance calculation to:
- Remove the plugin-based track_distance() and album_distance() methods
that were applying penalties incorrectly
- Calculate data_source penalties directly in track_distance() and
distance() functions when sources don't match
- Use a centralized get_penalty() function to retrieve plugin-specific
penalty values via a registry with O(1) lookup
- Change default data_source_penalty from 0.0 to 0.5 to ensure
mismatches are penalized by default
- Add data_source to get_most_common_tags() to determine the likely
original source for comparison
This ensures that tracks and albums from different data sources are
properly penalized during matching, improving match quality and
preventing cross-source matches.
Adds replace plugin. The plugin allows the user to replace the audio
file of a song, while keeping the tags and file name.
Some music servers keep track of favourite songs via paths and tags. Now
there won't be a need to 'refavourite'. Plus, this skips the
import/merge steps.
Add link to community plugin
[`beets-filetote`](https://github.com/gtronset/beets-filetote).
This plugin is the spiritual successor to
[beets-copyartifacts](https://github.com/adammillerio/beets-copyartifacts)
(`beets-copyartifacts3` was last updated 3 years ago) and
[beets-extrafiles](https://github.com/Holzhaus/beets-extrafiles) (last
updated 5 years ago).
Given the updates and changes in beets and how outdated those plugins
are, does it make sense to keep `beets-copyartifacts` in the community
plugins list?

Allow generating extm3u playlists so that they contain additional item fields such as the `id`.
The feature is required by the mgoltzsche/beets-webm3u plugin (M3U server) to transform playlists using a request based item URI template which may require additional fields such as the `id`, e.g. `beets:library:track;$id`.
This plugin allows rewriting fields based on a given library query. This can be helpful, for example, when an artist was renamed but you'd like to keep their older releases under their old name, or if you have a single track from a Various Artists release and want to have it included with the original artist.
This plugin uses librosa to automatically calculate the BPM for a track.
It is based on the keyfinder plugin, and rounds the BPM to an int.

Fixes#4627.
AcousticBrainz is shutting down as of early 2023. Deprecate the absubmit
plugin and update the acousticbrainz plugin to require configuration of
an AcousticBrainz server instance.
