Mod file support #3369

Closed ghost closed 3 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

Use case

I would like to use beets to also manage my mod file (chiptunes) collection. Notice that beet currently doesn't support mod files (mo3, mod, it, xm, s3m.)

Solution

Might have to use an external library like BASS or implement it into a separate plugin.

Hi! Interesting proposal. Do you know what kind of metadata these files use? Beets will want to store tags on the files. As a prerequisite, Mutagen will need to support whatever metadata format is standard for these files.

I'm actually not 100% sure on what type they use. I'll have to do some digging around and see what I have on them.

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?
