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 minimal 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, online integrity check & cover art), MEDIA/SOURCE/FORMAT, COMMENT/DESCRIPTION (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).

Some user customization via script manager's local storage, but no UI for now (use script manager to access the complete list of preferences).
How to access user configuration: (Tampermonky specific) Run the script at least once by letting it fill form, then open the script in editor and switch to storage tab (quick way - open upload page, click on TM toolbar icon, right click on UA)
Enhancements to web form:
- custom drag & drop handler for all description fields; accepted content types: local text files, local images (jpg, png, gif) (uploaded), html sourced formatted text, web links and web images (rehosted) // foo_dr.txt handling
PTPIMG account is required for any image related content (API key is autoconfigured on first use, be logged in to image host with same browser) - custom paste handler for all description fields (handles html formatted text)
- custom drag & drop handler for cover image input (upload local image / rehost web sourced image)
- Pre-submit description cleanup (remove excessive linebreaks and empty tag pairs), configurable via
cleanup_descriptions
preference
Extensions to other scripts:
- drag & drop patch to PTPImg It (drop images from shell on the button to directly upload them to PTPIMG host); make sure PTPImg It has lower order number than UA and has configured API key
Release integrity checking online does compare locally stored album with online source.
What is compared: title, main artist, playlist (track names, track artists and duration). Playlist size and overall duration is compared as well. This background check helps to prevent uploading incomplete/damaged albums, or releases that have messed up tracklist.
Requires valid URL tag to supported website (if missing, script tries to look up album on Spotify, Deezer and Discogs)
Spotify service requires configured user prefs spotify_clientid
and spotify_clientsecret
(Dashboard)
Orpheus site enabled but not tested (experimental).
