Make album

This topic is about a feature located at the playlist context menu Youtube Source Make album.

This functional is intended for the cases when the video contains whole album. Using info from MusicBrainz it is possible to split the video to album tracks (similar to cuesheets).

In simple case click Search button, then select album, then click Finish. By clicking Next button you can also edit generated cuesheet which will be used for this album.

Albums list has additional columns (right click on the list header).

Only a single release can be selected in albums list. If it is multi-disk release then there can be selected multiple disks within it. This is necessary when one video is represented by multi-disk release (example).

In tracks list can be edited title and offset of each track. Editing track offsets here in some cases is more convenient than manual cuesheet editing (example).

Requirements and limitations

[foobar2000 1.x only]: To make it work, %cuesheet% tag field should not be marked as spam in LargeFieldsConfig.txt file from foobar2000 application data directory. Furthermore, field size limit should be large enough to keep the cuesheet.

Original playlist item should be kept somewhere in the playlists or at the playback start you will get an error Unsupported format or corrupted file.

Video should be seekable or at playback start you will get an error Object is not seekable.
