"Start fresh" option in the admin panels" delete all previous knowledge of this installation.
After doing a substantial cleanup of duplicate files, moving junk around, moving folders and generally re-logicalizing the entire library, it became clear that Bliss was now hopelessly confused. I needed to go into the .bliss folder and clear out the database that held bliss's knowledge of the library as it was.
This was something of a pain, although what to delete was in the documentation on the bliss web site. It would be nice to have a button (with confirmation of course) that said "Start from scratch." or words to that effect.

Provide support for film soundtracks.
To give an example of a Bollywood release, lets take an example of a movie called Dostana ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dostana_(2008_film) ) Each song in the release can be sung by a different artist.This is where i beleive the problem starts.I see multiple albums on Bliss with different album artist names below. To resolve the issue i erase all the info of Artist(s) from the file, and then it recognizes the release as one album.

mediamonkey like renaming options
Ad if and left statements to renaming would make this just about perfect
example:
$left(\Music\$if(<Album Artist>,$if(<Album Artist>=various,<Album Artist>,$if(<Album Artist>=techno,<Album Artist>,$if(<Album Artist>=soundtrack,_<Album Artist>,<Album Artist@1><Album Artist>))),Artist@1<Artist>)\$if(<Album>,$if(<Year>,<Year> - )<Album>)\$if(<track#>,<track#> - )<Artist> - <Title>,240)would produce:
\Music\A\A Perfect Circle\2004 - eMOTIVe\02 - A Perfect Circle - Imagine.mp3
\Music\Z\ZZ Top\1983 - Eliminator\01 - ZZ Top - Gimme All Your Lovin'.mp3
\Music_Soundtrack\2006 - V for Vendetta\09 - Cat Power - I Found a Reason.mp3
\Music_Techno\1991 - XL Recordings- The Second Chapter\07 - Cubic 22 - Night in Motion (Original mix).flac
\Music_Various\2007 - Endzeit Bunkertracks, Act 3 (disc 2- Torture session)\01 - Faderhead…6 votes -
Allow me to enter the correct file name/path when that is the non-compliance error
when I get a non compliance error, the program is not offering n option for me to enter a fix, and no automatic fix is offered, so I have to browse the folder andattempt a fix. I'm not sure why

Custom Folder image for compilation folders
In the blog, you wrote:
.. bliss tries to work out whether the directory in which the tracks
.. are stored is used exclusively for that one album. Otherwise,
.. some music players may use the artwork as the art for other
.. albums. Sometimes you may have a directory that stores
.. multiple miscellaneous tracks from different albums.which is cool, but it would be nice if I could assign custom art to the FOLDER as well.
It's wonderful that bliss gets the right art into each song, but when viewing the tree structure in some players, the folder.jpg…

Auto tag compilations
bliss should auto tag compilations. I would like bliss to tag every album that has either Various Arist (or some other similar moniker in a defined set) in Album Artist tag with the compilation tag and tag every album that has the compilation tag with the same Various Artists title in the Album Artist tag.
See also http://ideas.blisshq.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/1760321-add-setting-for-compilation-directory-name-seems- which occurs because the "various artists" alias in bliss is hardcoded to "Various".
The reason for me wanting this is so that I can get control over all my compilationalbums when I look through my album collection on my music player. If…

List recently added albums first
Sometimes album art is added and the album is compliant, but it was a slightly different cover to the one you wanted e.g. special edition.
An option to list recently added albums first, would be excellent so you can easily see them as they are added, and select alternative album art.

Compilation specific file org pattern
The thing is that I have a lot of albums (4000 and more coming in) and the naming scheme for compilations varies somewhat. Some are tagged as a compilation (with the compilation tag), others are tagged with Various Artists in the Album Artist tag.
So I would like bliss to move all albums that are tagged with the compilation tag (see http://ideas.blisshq.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/2290707-auto-tag-compilations ) and has Various Artists as Album Artist into the Various Artists folder on my server (and hence rename the folder- and file-name).
Therefore, I want a specific file org pattern for compilations.

automatic search and replace of genres
With a look-up table, one could convert, for example, genres such as OBC, Broadway, Musicals, Original Cast, Cast Album and so forth all to the same, uniform genre (in this case, I might prefer to have them all tagged as Original Cast). This could also be used to reduce the number of genres. Yes, it reduces specificity but it might be nice to have all jazz listed as jazz, instead of "stride piano," "ragtime" "dixieland" "trad jazz" "modern jazz" "contemporary jazz" and so forth.

Add a 'starts with' filter to the artist overview
The album overview has a 'starts with' filter which enabled you to filter by the start character.
The same option should be available for the artist overview.

Automatic mirroring of music libraries to different music file formats
While ripping lossless (to FLAC or some other codec) is always advised there are times when we need lossy music files.
One example is for portable players. Lossless files take up a LOT of space, so it's more efficient to play OGGs or MP3s or whatever.
In other cases, some music players simply don't work with certain codecs. iTunes doesn't play FLAC out-of-the-box, for instance.
This idea would add a rule to maintain multiple mirrors of your music library. Your current music library becomes the source. You then declare multiple extra libraries, with the desired music file format in each…

Option to alter memory consumption
Currently, bliss as a service is chewing ~200Mb with consistently ~3% CPU cycles on a modern computer with a small library. Yes, it's mostly a Java issue (it loving memory and all), but when you also use your server for VM's, 4Gb starts to look a bit... weak... Also, reduction in CPU cycles = reduction in power bill.
I would like an option where I could specify the ceiling of how much memory bliss should consume. The levels would be something like 64, 128, 256 MB.

Ability to Enter a Custom Search String for Missing Album Art
For instance, some of my albums have extra info in the album name such as (2009 Remaster). When bliss searches for album art, it includes this extra info in the search and (most of the time) doesn't find the album art. It would be nice if I could edit the search string that is being used (basically just to remove this extra info) so that I could get the proper art. A step further might be to have this happen automatically if no art is found, but that is probably asking too much.

Implement styles and moods tagging from Allmusic.com
The genre tagging from Allmusic.com is already implemented. Moods and styles would be an awesome addition.

update reports on library status/new changes via email or messaging
Reports via email or other messaging that notify you on any new albums/changes to your library and whether they are compliant - so when I rip a new CD on vortexbox then bliss works its magic and I get an email telling me whether its compliant or not, also an overall report on the state of my library would be good
