How do you sort your music? (feddit.nu)

Hello everyone!

I have been having a hard time finding a solution to my problem of sorting music from both Youtube music and Bandcamp. I have tried Picard and while it is good I have had problems with it. For example it has made songs shorter (they now end to soon.). So far the only solution I have found is to use Picard and manually review every song I own, and since I have thousands of songs It would take quite long.

I'm using Jellyfin with Finamp to play my music, and sometimes add lyrics via the Jellyfin app when they are missing.

How have you people solved this or similar issues? Does someone have a automated setup that works well?

I guess, it can select the wrong song, if:

the correct song doesn't have its acoustic fingerprint in the MusicBrainz database (otherwise it would be the closest match), and
another song has a similar enough acoustic fingerprint, above a threshold that you can configure in the Picard settings.

I assume, it has to be a threshold, because you might have slight variations for the same song/recording, like silence at the end trimmed or volume normalized or whatever.

And yeah, Picard's UI is certainly a bit of a hurdle. Conveying information for so many changes is definitely not easy, so I don't want to complain.
But you know, if it would have detected that some of my songs will get renamed not just with a few capitalization fixes, but rather completely different words, and it would have prompted me for those, then I wouldn't have misnamed songs now...
