Implement complete list of ID3 tags as sortable columns #14

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Describe the feature you want implemented.

Most ID3 tags-as-columns are missing. Allow the user to select which columns 
are displayed, based on all possible ID3 tags, including custom fields. All 
columns should be sortable.

Describe why you think that this feature is needed.

Give users the power to choose their own preferences when it comes to how their 
music is displayed.

Take, for example, the rating tag. Currently, there is no rating column, 0 to 5 
stars. I find it very handy to listen to tracks that I have already rated. To 
achieve this, I have to create a separate playlist and move the tracks in 
manually. If I had access to that column, in a few seconds I would be done.

Are there any other projects that inspired you? Do you have any screenshots
or mockups to show a concept of this feature?

MusicBee. Right click on the column header to select which columns are visible.

I will add more columns before the stable release. However, I am not sure about 
"custom" fields. What is a custom field? Can you create your own ID3 tags 
(besides Artist, Album, Title, Track, etc.) and name it whatever you want? I am 
not sure the DLL I use to access ID3 information (taglib sharp) has the ability 
to access that kind of information.

A custom field is one that Foobar2000 allows you to easily create. 

Open fb2k, right click on an mp3, open properties. Then under Metadata, right 
click and add new field, and voila, you have your own custom ID3 tag.

It appears in capital letters and in angle braces. So if you create a custom 
tag called mood, it looks like <MOOD>.

Creating custom fields would require quite some programming. I think it's a 
good idea but I am moving this to a later milestone.

I will probably implement ratings as well when I create a smart playlist that 
figures out which tracks you like the most.
