Comment on Music Library Management

“unsorted” folder contains input. “Music” folder has full library; any imports must go through beets. rsync to remote backups; one scripted/automatic, one manual & password-protected. Restores (needed once or twice) are done with beets import, but whatever flag that does “just import, don’t tag”

Once I have my music gone through and deduped, as well as tagged, I will likely never have to run it again; as the music my server ingests is already properly tagged.

The deduping is a little difficult. Obv matching files are caught with regular dedupe tools, but I’ve been meaning to make a script to use fingerprinting (dejavu is the library I think?) to find matches. Problem is the fingerprints are about as big as the music files themselves.

Beets can do some sort of fingerprint with ffmpeg and in another comment I posted a snippet that I used ti generate a log. I’ve only done dry runs.
