No match found for majority of tracks

[smoores-dev]

Seems to be completely unable to find most tracks for some reason. It's also inconsistent in which tracks it finds, e.g. in two runs of importing the same playlist (16 tracks total), the first time 6 tracks were found, and the second time a different 2 tracks were found.

As another example: when trying to import Saved Tracks, each of two runs found about 300 sounds (out of a total of 1,500 or something), and there was a 50-song overlap in what they were able to find. It seems like this might be a throttling issue. Also seems like this isn't just me: #90

Did a bit of poking around:

Setting the semaphore's starting value to 1 didn't seem to have any effect whatsoever.

Looking at the actual responses from the failed searches, Google is returning a search response with status 200 and no sign of throttling.

That said, a playlist with 3 songs consistently succeeds with all 3 songs.

I am having the same problem. Nothing found on a playlist of 80 tracks (New Music Friday if someone wants to try to replicate) - 78 tracks found when searching GPM manually. Worked flawlessly for months for me prior to this.

Happens on every playlist I try. Reads the tracks OK from Spotify, cannot find them on GPM.

Adding some retry logic seemed to fix this for me, though inexplicably one (and seemingly only one) of my playlists now completely fails. If this continues working and the root cause isn't identified, I can open a small PR

Edit: The failing playlist now succeeds. For whatever reason this seems to be the solution.

are you going to submit a pull request?

edit...re-read your comment

I'm getting this problem also. Is there a "for dummies" fix for this or should I wait for an official fix?

[cordell]

@SMores has said he will submit a pull request, allowing us to add the fix into the repo. Once it is merged it will be much easier if you have no knowledge of "git"

This should be fixed in the latest release, let me know how it goes.

Much appreciated, and much better than it was! I tried the "New Indie Mix" playlist. Found matches for 93 out of the 101 (didn't go through line by line to see if they all matched accurately, but the first 20 or so did).

The tracks below came back as "no match found" for whatever reason, although I could find them in Google Play with a manual search.

Super Whatevr - Benjamin Alphabet The Cactus Channel - Sorry Hills Wilderado - Talking About Love To A Cigarette Bayonne - Fallss Sampha - Kora Sings

I don't know what's different about these tracks that would cause them to not match when all the others did. Hopefully this information helps if you decide to tweak it further. Just glad to see it working again. Thanks so much.

Just tested it and the main problem seems to be solved. There are some missing songs still (as knarf1 pointed above) but it must be just a problem of not being a perfect match (spelling, name, file size, etc..). A different issue.

@rckclmbr Apparently the problem is back with this version (0.3.13), just tried it again with my wife's account and got 0 matches for all the songs. I'm attaching the log just in case. portify.txt

@dakial you still having issues? It's working fine for me.

@rckclmbr Edit: Nevermind. I found the error. I was trying to do it at my wife's account, but I've found out that she didn't put her account inside the family plan. I've corrected that, giving her the premium/all access status and everything worked ok. Maybe another disclaimer at step 4 saying that an account with no premium/all access will result in all songs returning "not found" might help future stupid people like me. ;)
