Tango.info track tagger

To be used for tango.info music tagging.
Name
It was suggested to use the name "track tagger" instead of "music tagger", since a track may contain non-music [1].
The tool only delivers track meta data, it does not write tags into files, so "tagger" might be a misnomer.
In v1.3.3 the h1 tag for the tool was changed from "Tool: Tagger" to "Tool: Track tagger".
Usage
The tagger has two input boxes
Submit presents an output box:
- For each track reference
- that is a TINT, one line
- that is a TINP or TINS either
- one line e.g. https://tango.info/tools/tagger1.3.3.php?track_references=07798082984082, OR;
- multiple lines, each of which corresponds to a track of the album or disc e.g. https://tango.info/tools/tagger1.3.3.php?track_references=07798105811609
- NOTE: this addition since 1.0 breaks compatibility - previously an inadvertent TINP would have given one line and no mistagging; now can give a multiple lines, causing subsequent misalignment an extreme mistagging.
- NOTE: this one/multiple variation is despite that t.i search shows no variation e.g. https://tango.info/?q=07798082984082 v. https://tango.info/?q=07798105811609
Each line consists of
- starting with "Error:" - an error
- not - tag data from one track, in the Format String format
Change log
Development
Latest version: https://tango.info/tools/tagger1.3.7.php
- https://tango.info/tools/tagger0.5.php - for album-by-album tagging (TINP based)
- Fails on accented characters e.g. https://tango.info/tools/tagger0.5.php?tins=00724354169229-1-1&sepa=%3B -> accented characters replaced by two-character garbage
- Fails on empty track references list e.g. -> Query failed : You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ORDER BY tango_albums.album_tin,track_num' at line 3
- Fails on single track reference e.g. https://tango.info/tools/tagger0.5.php?tins=00724354169229-1-1&sepa=%3B -> ;;;;;;;; not found:Array ( [0] => ERROR ) NO GENRE:Array ( [0] => )
- https://tango.info/tools/tagger1.0.php - for track-by-track tagging (TINT based)
- Note: 1.0 is not back-compatible with 0.5 - it does not accept bare TINPs.
- https://tango.info/tools/tagger1.3.php - work in progress
- output is customisable

- looks good
- Stress test with 16819 lines was successful
- Documentation: tango.info track tagger format string 2009-09-01T12:12:24 (UTC)
- Incompatibility with previous versions: %artist% orch-voc separator changed
- from ", " to ", voc: "
- No workaround known. Replace format string "%artist%" with "%track_orch%, %track_voca%" generates incompatible ", -"
- Needed is
- statement of tag names' source tracks.csv fields
- Desired is
- Formalisation of interface for other pages (e.g. Mp3tag export output) to call by FORM ACTION
- "Tag list" label is missing!
- https://tango.info/tools/tagger1.3.1.php?input=http://chrisjj.com/notfound.html puts warning text HTML code in tag list!
- looks good
- Chrisjjj
- output is customisable
- https://tango.info/tools/tagger1.3.2.php - work in progress
- Chrisjjj
- Breaks back-compatibility of usage as FORM action: argument textarea with name 'input' now ignored
- Workaround: change parameter textarea 'input' to 'track_references'
- Breaks back-compatibility of usage as FORM action: argument textarea with name 'input' now ignored
- puts warning text HTML code in tag list https://tango.info/tools/tagger1.3.2.php?track_references=http://chrisjj.com/notfound.html
