Bad Files Plugin
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
The ``badfiles`` plugin adds a ``beet bad`` command to check for missing and
|
|
corrupt files.
|
|
|
|
Configuring
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
First, enable the ``badfiles`` plugin (see :ref:`using-plugins`). The default
|
|
configuration defines the following default checkers, which you may need to
|
|
install yourself:
|
|
|
|
* `mp3val`_ for MP3 files
|
|
* `FLAC`_ command-line tools for FLAC files
|
|
|
|
You can also add custom commands for a specific extension, like this::
|
|
|
|
badfiles:
|
|
commands:
|
|
ogg: myoggchecker --opt1 --opt2
|
|
flac: flac --test --warnings-as-errors --silent
|
|
|
|
Custom commands will be run once for each file of the specified type, with the
|
|
path to the file as the last argument. Commands must return a status code
|
|
greater than zero for a file to be considered corrupt.
|
|
|
|
.. _mp3val: http://mp3val.sourceforge.net/
|
|
.. _flac: https://xiph.org/flac/
|
|
|
|
Using
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
Type ``beet bad`` with a query according to beets' usual query syntax. For
|
|
instance, this will run a check on all songs containing the word "wolf"::
|
|
|
|
beet bad wolf
|
|
|
|
This one will run checks on a specific album::
|
|
|
|
beet bad album_id:1234
|
|
|
|
Here is an example where the FLAC decoder signals a corrupt file::
|
|
|
|
beet bad title::^$
|
|
/tank/Music/__/00.flac: command exited with status 1
|
|
00.flac: *** Got error code 2:FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_ERROR_STATUS_FRAME_CRC_MISMATCH
|
|
00.flac: ERROR while decoding data
|
|
state = FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_READ_FRAME
|
|
|
|
Note that the default `mp3val` checker is a bit verbose and can output a lot
|
|
of "stream error" messages, even for files that play perfectly well.
|
|
Generally, if more than one stream error happens, or if a stream error happens
|
|
in the middle of a file, this is a bad sign.
