An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks Ian. Two issues then:
1) Popup not clearing
2) Unclear why you can't edit the file twice, need a better "state" model -

An error occurred while saving the comment The way I'd like to do that is combine "rulesets" (https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2017/08/01/ruleset-selecta/) with http://ideas.blisshq.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/9161260-move-music-files-between-libraries to move all compliant albums into a given folder.
An error occurred while saving the comment I'd like to improve the activity page to support this.
More generally, could this be merged with http://ideas.blisshq.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/2358119-make-it-easier-to-see-what-has-been-fixed ?

An error occurred while saving the comment This would only ever happen if there were some way of buffering the albums, e.g. in an infinite scroll type approach. And then you end up with new UI issues - what happens to the back button etc (these aren't insurmountable but they might make things more difficult).
At some level there has to be a limit, because a music library is unbounded in size. Even if you have a fast machine, you could still hit the limits of memory or, indeed, the browser's client memory.

An error occurred while saving the comment That would be a good idea - having a more prominent shortcut.
Note there is one already, under the "why" button, click any of the art assessment details (e.g. the resolution) and you go to the change art page.

An error occurred while saving the comment Heh, well I don't know about you but 95% of the time I just choose Cubic and it works... I don't know enough about the algorithms to say when none or linear would be useful.
An error occurred while saving the comment Probably worse than that ;)
bliss uses an AffineTransform ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_transformation ) using this API: http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/awt/geom/AffineTransform.html
It might be worth looking at incorporating imgscalr: http://www.thebuzzmedia.com/software/imgscalr-java-image-scaling-library/

An error occurred while saving the comment Sounds like it would be a case of adding these to the list, and also forming them as part of the genre tree.

An error occurred while saving the comment Note that the R128 algorithm/method is an emerging standard in this space and should probably be implemented too!

An error occurred while saving the comment bliss uses something called inotify to be informed of file changes (not made by bliss).
There's a limit to how many files you can listen to. On Synology the limit is set quite low (if I recall correctly) and so these error messages are triggered.
It means bliss won't listen to file notifications from some files, but should still work otherwise.
Note it may also impact other software; the limit is global.
An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks for posting this. I definitely think the repeated messages are a problem!

An error occurred while saving the comment Hi - only certain rules are automatable, e.g. the maximum size rule (but this only applies to resolution, not data size). The image format rule is not automatable.
The semi workaround is the "fix all visible" buttons on the Inbox. Do these help?

An error occurred while saving the comment "When time allows you can search for no album art files"
Why can't you use the missing art filter for this? On the left of the albums page?

An error occurred while saving the comment It has always been intentional not to move other files (note we should also move image files though). That's partly because I'm not sure what to do about name clashes.

An error occurred while saving the comment Great idea - should they be exactly the same? I think that's the easiest place to start.

An error occurred while saving the comment I think there are a growing number of ideas relating to actions following compliance is met. Some more:

Compliance status could be considered a selector as part of ruleset selectors: https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2017/08/01/ruleset-selecta/

An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, the selection by genre bit would be covered by rulesets for those not familiar: https://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2017/08/01/ruleset-selecta/
There's no separate idea for that, although see http://ideas.blisshq.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/5490000-individual-rulesets-for-different-locations

An error occurred while saving the comment You're right - OMA uses release group tags, that are within a defined set of genres, as genres. It also uses Discogs genres. So it would just be a case of importing the style information as well to at least get at the data. As you say, the most tricky question is how these should be treated and inserted in a library.
An error occurred while saving the comment Nice idea. In the new versions of the metadata server we do allow multiple genres to be returned, this would fit into this. The question may be whether it's important to have styles and genres intermingled. I think the distinction is highly subjective in a lot of cases.

An error occurred while saving the comment No, fixes could still contradict or depend on each other to some extent, I was just suggesting a general approach. It needs to be done on a case by case basis really.
"Missing tags Genre / years" should be filed under "Tag fixes"; the tag type rule is simply for changing ID3v1 to and from ID3v2.x.
Your other examples were correct.
Anyone finding this thread interested in "it would be great to have one button to fix all the above" see http://ideas.blisshq.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/10273929-fix-all-tags-instead-of-the-viewable-ones
An error occurred while saving the comment I changed the title because this is a general issue.
Yes, some fixes can conflict, e.g. changing the album name will mean there should be a different file path, if you have those settings configured. In that case, at the moment, you should refresh the Inbox page. But you have a general point...
Generally, I would fix in this order:
- Tag type fixes (e.g. ID3v1 -> ID3v2)
- Tag fixes (e.g. fix album name etc)
- File paths
- Cover art -

An error occurred while saving the comment Where you see folders being left behind, please send a debug archive "Help" > "Download debug archive" to support@blisshq.com
An error occurred while saving the comment Broadly speaking this is a common requirement in different environments, because many music players require a "rescan" even if its only tags that have changed.

An error occurred while saving the comment My general approach to this is that is should be done at the system level, e.g. using "nice" in Linux for processor throttling. See https://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?t=58034
Thanks - I think the context information about the original album listing is lost when you click to go back to the album detail page from the change art page. I'll look to fix.
