[FR] CoverArt: tag-based profiles

[schmitty 66]

Hi @@ebr,

 

Would it be possible if you could add tag-based profiles to CoverArt?

 

I find the directory-based profiles very cumbersome to setup with a large-ish library. Using tag-based profiles would be a lot more user friendly.

 

I currently use the flat treatment for SD/HD and mixed content, and the case treatment for movies and series I rip myself. Having profiles set up in this manner would be a lot easier to maintain than having to setup a profile for separate seasons, then the series, as some series have content from mixed sources or qualities.

Interesting idea but it would be a huge endeavor and I think that location based profiles fit the bill for most people.

It is a time consuming process setting up profiles for individual movies and series

You have to admit you have a fairly unique requirement here .

 

You could accomplish it easier if you physically separated the different items you wanted treated differently into parent folders and then added those parent folders to your library.

 

Then you could have your separate profiles in CA and the library would combine them for you.

Ahh, didn’t think of that. Bit of a pain, but I guess it will have to do.

Would the quality sub directories work with symlinks to the actual media? So I don’t have to worry about messing up the root directories.

You'd have to try it, but most likely not.
