# beets-autogenre

A [beets](https://github.com/beetbox/beets) plugin to assign genres to all items within your music library.

## Features

* Gets genres from last.fm using the [lastgenre plugin](https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/plugins/lastgenre.html).
* Favours track as last.fm genre source when track is a remix.
* Fallback to estimating the genre using the [xtractor plugin](https://github.com/adamjakab/BeetsPluginXtractor) / [Essentia](https://essentia.upf.edu/).
* Fixes the genre of (re)mixes by matching the genre tree against the track and album title.
* Allows to specify the genre per item manually.

## Dependencies

The following beets plugins and their dependencies must be installed:
* [lastgenre plugin](https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/plugins/lastgenre.html).
* [xtractor plugin](https://github.com/adamjakab/BeetsPluginXtractor) which relies on [Essentia](https://essentia.upf.edu/).

python3 -m pip install beets-autogenre
