Deezer Plugin

The deezer plugin provides metadata matches for the importer using the Deezer Album and Track APIs.

Basic Usage

First, enable the deezer plugin (see Using Plugins).

You can enter the URL for an album or song on Deezer at the enter Id prompt during import:

Enter search, enter Id, aBort, eDit, edit Candidates, plaY? i
Enter release ID: https://www.deezer.com/en/album/572261

Configuration

This plugin can be configured like other metadata source plugins as described in Using Metadata Source Plugins.

Default

deezer:
    data_source_mismatch_penalty: 0.5
    search_limit: 5
    search_query_ascii: no

• search_query_ascii: If set to yes, the search query will be converted to ASCII before being sent to Deezer. Converting searches to ASCII can enhance search results in some cases, but in general, it is not recommended. For instance artist:deadmau5 album:4×4 will be converted to artist:deadmau5 album:4x4 (notice ×!=x). Default: no.

The deezer plugin provides an additional command deezerupdate to update the rank information from Deezer. The rank (ranges from 0 to 1M) is a global indicator of a song's popularity on Deezer that is updated daily based on streams. The higher the rank, the more popular the track is.
