An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment @Anonymous (Johan Kraus) you can do this already using the track number padding rule (https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2011/07/16/padding-track-numbers-with-zero/) or if it's the files that are out of order, use <tracknumber:nn> : https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2011/12/14/new-release-20111206-padding-file-org-acoustic-fingerprints/index.html
An error occurred while saving the comment Yep, agree with that.
Not sure what you mean by "Once the files are hashed it's easy to detect corruption, but what about before that?" - isn't detection, and alerting of the issue, the end point?
An error occurred while saving the comment It's not supported by bliss currently but it's supported for any application that wants to get to it. It's in the METADATA_BLOCK_STREAMINFO header inside a FLAC file. The FLAC command ilne supports using it to test files: https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2015/03/31/test-flacs-corruption/
An error occurred while saving the comment The more I think about it the more I like this overall idea. Seems to be something a lot of audiophiles want.
It should also have the ability to plug into existing checksums, e.g. FLAC's own.
@Bernardo, in your case (2) would definitely be preferable.
I think this would just be a rule to monitor checksums and alert if one has changed.
An error occurred while saving the comment I've been talking to another user on email about this. The way he described it really made it sound like it would be a fitting part of bliss. These kind of things are discussed often over at Computer Audiophile.
It fits into the consistency - completeness - correctness mantra - maybe adding a new dimension: integrity or security?!

A compare between the bliss run on the the primairy file and on the backup (an automated "winmerge")
1 voteAn error occurred while saving the comment Which backup are you referring to? Normally you'd only run bliss against a "gold" master library, and back that up separately, which bliss wouldn't touch.

An error occurred while saving the comment One general way of achieving this might be to support copy/paste for multiple lines/columns. This is the way it's done in some other tools. It depends on the support for the approach within the table component we use (SlickGrid atm).

An error occurred while saving the comment Currently, bliss interprets an zero length value as a request to remove the field. If you remove any value from the compilation field, does it remove the field?

An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks for that detective work! You're right - blindly using this would be problematic.
An error occurred while saving the comment Note that some online sources have sort names, e.g. https://musicbrainz.org/artist/d5da1841-9bc8-4813-9f89-11098090148e
An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, this data is on MusicBrainz although that doesn't cover all artists. I wonder if we could have fallbacks to analyse the artist string and try to guess what the sort tags should be? E.g. two words without a comma: reverse them and insert a comma (depending on how you want to sort).

An error occurred while saving the comment Why would you want such a tag in the files? Generally bliss takes the view that we shouldn't store any bliss-specific data in music files, for fear of cluttering metadata.
Also see: http://ideas.blisshq.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/1928497-ignore-compliance-for-certain-albums which I think is a more general case (without the tag being stored).

An error occurred while saving the comment This is a great point, and your concern is correct.
Maybe this is something https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2017/10/03/derived-tags/ could solve (with a filter to re-order the names accordingly).

An error occurred while saving the comment Looks like an interesting project, keep me up to date...
An error occurred while saving the comment No reason why not I suppose! Note that WAV support is also lacking... but cue files could be implemented for FLAC right now.

An error occurred while saving the comment Interesting suggestion. Normally I find there isn't much to the right of the art so it's not much of an issue!

An error occurred while saving the comment There should be an "Allow" button - do you see that? You don't have to type it in then (maybe I misunderstand)...
The downside of that is that a full rescan ensues...

An error occurred while saving the comment Agree, just putting that out there as an option.
An error occurred while saving the comment Sounds good. It's worth saying to others that a workaround and a way of doing "find and replace" is using custom scripts - https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2017/07/04/reordering-the-artist-name/

An error occurred while saving the comment Not sure if it's easy to leverage GitHub for this and have people post Gists.... I think it might get unmanageable quickly!
An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, that would be cool and something I've long thought of, but it's about resources!
An error occurred while saving the comment You could do that standard comment one with a custom rule like:
https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2017/07/04/reordering-the-artist-name/
For the clearing tags... if you used a custom rule I'm not sure if the field would be left empty. I'd have to check that...

An error occurred while saving the comment It should remain on the page, it shouldn't disappear of its own accord?
Anyway there are two cookies:
gaOptOut - set to "true" to disable GA
gaShowOptOut - delete it to show the popup again.An error occurred while saving the comment There is an opt-in/opt-out option - it should show as a blue bar at the bottom of the page. Do/did you not see that?

An error occurred while saving the comment You're referring to where you have one file for an album/release, right?
In these cases, I would expect the tags to show the album and artist name, but no track names or positions. Is that what you see?
This general area could be better supported by bliss.

An error occurred while saving the comment I think this should be a general feature, not just Synology, agree! We did used to have a pause button.

An error occurred while saving the comment Why on the tags page, as opposed to any individual albums page?
An error occurred while saving the comment I like this - so long as, as you say, the albums "done-ness" is cleared when changing settings. And of course, some way of seeing all albums, regardless of "done".

An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks, can you also click the "Vote" button to register your vote? (Surprised it didn't do this already).
Interesting use case @jake ... let me know if it works!
