FtInTitle Plugin
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
The ``ftintitle`` plugin automatically moves "featured" artists from the
|
|
``artist`` field to the ``title`` field.
|
|
|
|
According to `MusicBrainz style`_, featured artists are part of the artist
|
|
field. That means that, if you tag your music using MusicBrainz, you'll have
|
|
tracks in your library like "Tellin' Me Things" by the artist "Blakroc feat.
|
|
RZA". If you prefer to tag this as "Tellin' Me Things feat. RZA" by "Blakroc",
|
|
then this plugin is for you.
|
|
|
|
To use the ``ftintitle`` plugin, enable it in your configuration
|
|
(see :ref:`using-plugins`).
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Available options:
|
|
|
|
- ``auto``: set it to ``no`` to disable plugin during import.
|
|
Default: ``yes``.
|
|
- ``drop``: remove featured artists entirely instead of adding them to the
|
|
title field.
|
|
Default: ``no``
|
|
|
|
Running manually
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
From the command line, type::
|
|
|
|
$ beet ftintitle [QUERY]
|
|
|
|
The query is optional; if it's left off, the transformation will be applied to
|
|
your entire collection.
|
|
|
|
Use the ``-d``flag to remove featured artists (equivalent of the ``drop``
|
|
option).
