Import, display and filter by Label/Publisher

[Baswazz]

Would be nice if the label/publisher is present in the id3 tag it is visible in the web ui.
When you click on it it filters on all releases by label, like when you click on the artist.

That's a good idea, thanks! I'll be adding more tags to be imported soon (release type, catalog number, musicbrainz ids, etc...) and will start showing these tags in the UI and add filter for some of them. As the columns of the song grid are not configurable right now, I may not include label as a column for now, but I may add it as a filter, and it will be present in the album/song details

I believe this is officially the TPUB frame in id3v2.x, although MusicBrainz might write its own custom tag?

@certuna Navidrome uses ffmpeg to read all metadata (tags), so this is what ffmpeg reports:

• For id3 tags:

Input #0, mp3, from './Nine Inch Nails/The Slip/01-01 999,999.mp3':
  Metadata:
    title           : 999,999
    artist          : Nine Inch Nails
    album           : The Slip
    publisher       : The Null Corporation

• For Vorbis comments:

Input #0, flac, from './Nine Inch Nails/Ghosts I–IV/01-01 1 Ghosts I.flac':
  Metadata:
    ALBUM           : Ghosts I–IV
    ARTIST          : Nine Inch Nails
    TITLE           : 1 Ghosts I
    LABEL           : The Null Corporation
    PUBLISHER       : The Null Corporation

(I left out irrelevant fields)

So that should be easy. Just don't know what to do with the Vorbis example above: Should I use the Label or the Publisher field? Thoughts?

[certuna]

I'd say read both label and publisher, make it a multi-value field?

[deluan]

Yeah, that's what I've been thinking: combine all values from both fields, removing duplicates.

[certuna]

Looking into this - as with all text fields, id3v2.4 and Vorbis allow the label field to have multiple values. This in principle means this can't just be stored in the mediaFile table as a simple label field, we need a label table.
