[Feature Request] Add Track Title and Artist Name Change Check and Update #182
Description
Related Problem/Issue
Is this Feature Request related to an existing GitHub Issue or Bug Report?
No: Occasionally you will come across a track that you have already downloaded and the artist has chosen or had to change the name of the track or their artist name.
Ideal Solution
When this track is triggered for download, before skipping a previously downloaded track confirm that (if not update it to reflect the change):
- the file name uses the current artist name and track title (if that is the format in which they are saved) probably more tricky since they can be customized.
- .song_ids & .song_archive use the correct artist name and track title
Additional context:
Track Title Change Example:
Fred again.. - OGdub ==> Fred again.. - OK OK
The ID remained the same but the track title changed.
Proof: Reddit
Artist Name Change Example:
ØGM - I Need It ==> OGM - I Need It
The artist decided to replace the Ø with O in their name.
Proof: SoundCloud; Also I specifically remember manually updating my .song_ids, .song_archive and files for this change.
This would need to be an all or nothing (filename & archive/index files) for it to effectively work, at least for my use case and I do recognize this may be hard or impossible to implement without adding a new config value or flag given the filename can be set up to save in a customized format which is in itself a nice feature. I look forward to hearing on any ideas you might have on if or how this could be accomplished.
As always, thanks for your support! 😄
