Duplicate Albums with Same Name

[tkem]

Currently, album IDs are not determined by album title alone, but by all album-related tags. See #46 for known issues with this. Best results are usually achieved by using a tagger that assigns MusicBrainz IDs.

Yeah, This issue is a bummer for me too, which I'm trying to fix. Which are the album related tags? Once I know them, I can better fix them. Also does calling mopidyctl local scan reimport data even if only the id3 has changed?

@paulhayes: AFAICR local scan checks the file's modification date, so updating tags should be sufficient. Album related tags include album name, album artist, track count and volume/disc count.
Especially the last two seem to give issues with multi-disc albums, especially if track count varies by disc (#46).

Is there any way to stop is using volume/disc count in the generation of
the md5?

@paulhayes: Yes, implement #46 ;-)
So unless there is any new information on this subject, e.g. issues not related to track/disc number tags, I'm going to close this as a duplicate of #46...
