Just wanted to see if anyone else is as OCD with metadata details for Music in Kodi with Madnox installed.

I've just finished tagging my whole library, which has taken 3 months off and on....

Small tip for anyone using Madnox and Showcase2 view. For correct Album tagging I made sure the following was completed for each album :

Tools used MusicBrainz Picard, TagRename, along with The AudioDB.com and Fanart.tv websites

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>

And for all Artists the following :

Ending up with the view like below :

This is great!!! I have all my music tagged using picard and tag&remname...
am I to understand that you have created Nfo's as well? if so what program did you use for the NFO's and is it one per album or one for song??

What I do is import new music into Kodi, after putting relevant artwork into artist and album folders and tagging via MusicBrainz Picard, then I go into Music settings area/ Library and the export my music library using "separate" / export thumbs and fanart "Yes" / overwrite old files "NO" . Kodi will then create a artist.nfo file and a album.nfo for each album under the artist directory.

Once thats done I then check to see whats been missed in the Kodi scrap import. I then edit each nfo for artist and album to fill in the missing details

Thanks

Can you post me the code then i can add it manuel in the playlist.

Have a look at http://kodi.wiki/view/Smart_playlists#Random_unplayed_episodes_from_a_TV_show for an example of how to use playcount if you're manually editing a smart playlist. If creating through the Kodi gui, add a new rule and cycle until it says "Match items where" "(Play count)".
