As I understand it, LB uses a YouTube search by track title to match songs being played in the Music Player on LB. It could be better if it could take advantage of a YouTube playlist being linked to the associated MB release being used in the LB playlist to better match songs to their YouTube counterpart...
<Lotheric6> lucifer, I'm using a userscript to listen (on listenbrainz) to a MusicBrainz album (the script adds a button above the album cover and sends the playlist to LB
6<Lotheric6> but I'm getting a clean version instead of the explicit version
6<Lotheric6> How does it work exactly ? Is it match by track title on youtube ? Is there a way for me to fix that ?
2<29lucifer2> can you link me to the listens on LB?
6<Lotheric6> I know both clean and explicit versions are on youtube
6<Lotheric6> https://listenbrainz.org/player/release/01572994-f0b5-41df-ab56-7ce5463dbde5/
6<Lotheric6> https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release/01572994-f0b5-41df-ab56-7ce5463dbde5
6<Lotheric6> and the clean version https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release/9d5fe383-1238-4a3e-b7c0-f0028589a583
2<8lucifer2> Lotheric: sorry, not sure from this where the clean vs explicit version comes in. for this page, we use the exact mbids from the release on MB.
6<Lotheric6> but songs are played from youtube right ?
6<Lotheric6> I'm not familiar with how the player match the songs
2<29lucifer2> right.
2<29lucifer2> ah i see, you mean the wrong version is played from youtube?
2<29lucifer2> we play the first search result returned by youtube.
6<Lotheric6> yeah
6<Lotheric6> ok so it's a search that is done with the track title ? maybe it could be refined like in my example, both MB releases have their youtube music playlist linked
2<29lucifer2> yes makes sense. we can improve in that case. can you open a ticket for that?
6<Lotheric6> I'll do that
2<29lucifer2> thanks!
