Been using this for several years now. It's definitely not for the average user. But nothing is quite so flexible.

Thanks. I was looking for something like this.

I love beets - the one thing I can't figure out is how to set the genre very wide.

I like having a small number of broad genres - Rock, Hip-Hop, Jazz etc - but the tagging comes up with hundreds of distinct genres :(

I recently looked into beets, but it seems it’s focused on automation, is that correct? I often buy stuff that has just been released, and that’s not yet in any database, so no automation works.

My current workflow is download, unzip and manually tag (mainly genres, sometimes badly named artists/albums) with MusicBee (which gives me autocomplete for genres so I can reuse existing ones), and then copy the files to the server for Navidrome to pick them up.

Throwing this out here to see if beets would actually work well with what I want after all.
