RED/NWCD Upload Assistant

Accurate filling of new upload/request and group/request edit forms based on foobar2000's playlist selection (via pasted output of copy command), release integrity check, two tracklist layouts, colours customization, featured artists extraction, classical works formatting, coverart fetching from store and more. As alternative to pasted playlist, e.g. for requests creation, valid URL to product page on supported web can be used -- see below for list of supported sites.

Additional setup: to read foobar's playlist, pattern below must be set for built-in foobar2000 copy command (File > Preferences > Display > Classic User Interface > Title Formatting > Copy command), or custom Text Tools plugin quick copy command

Note: Text Tools plugin substitutes linebreaks by underscores, making it ambiguous to restore original comment (remap_texttools_newlines=1 to backward substitution), because of that using standard copy command is more reliable.

Script already fills form with minimum set of tags (album, artist, title, tracknumber), but obviously accuracy and completeness of description improves with increasing amount of expectably filled relevant tags, especially RELEASEDATE/RETAIL DATE, LABEL/PUBLISHER, CATALOG/CATALOGNUMBER, GENRE/STYLE, COUNTRY, URL (for lineage & cover art), MEDIA/SOURCE/FORMAT, COMMENT (for additional album description), RELEASETYPE, COMPILATION (otherwise guessed from various parameters, not reliable), ALBUM DYNAMIC RANGE, DISCNUMBER, DISCSUBTITLE (for multivolume albums). Beyond naming volumes script uses DISCSUBTITLE also for grouping of classical works and logical units within playlist (usually on extensive anthologies).
