fix(fetchart): sources definition (#6508)

Description

The fetchart plugin would silently drop unknown sources defined in
config, leading to hard to debug problems.
The plugin now errors when an unknown source is configured, or when no
sources are configured.
In addition, a single string is now a valid value for sources to
either enable all sources with an *, or a single source.

Fixes: #6336

fix(deezer): use artist ID to detect Various Artists releases (#6499)

Fixes #4956

The Deezer API apparently uses IP geolocation to return a localized
“Various Artists” name (e.g. “Verschiedene Interpreten” in German),
causing VA releases to match poorly and display the wrong artist name.

This implements the approach suggested by @sampsyo in
beetbox/beets#4956:
detect VA releases using Deezer’s (hopefully) stable various artists ID
(5080) instead of a string comparison, then replace the localized name
with the user’s configured va_name, mirroring what the MusicBrainz
plugin already does with its own VARIOUS_ARTISTS_ID.

Label issues/prs case-insensitively (#6505)

Make PR label patterns case-insensitive

All label-matching patterns in .github/labeler.yaml are updated to use
the /pattern/i regex syntax, enabling case-insensitive matching.

Before: 'fetchart'
After: '/fetchart/i'

This ensures PRs are correctly labelled regardless of capitalisation in
commit messages or PR titles (e.g., FetchArt, FETCHART, fetchart
all match).

See github/issue-labeler#15

listenbrainz: Add pagination, play count aggregation, and recording_mbid fix (#6484)

Follow-up to #6471 — fixes three remaining issues with the
listenbrainz plugin:

  • Aggregate listen events into actual play counts. ListenBrainz
    returns individual listen events, each mapped to playcount: 1. Without
    aggregation, the final listenbrainz_play_count is always 1 regardless
    of actual listens.

  • Paginate through all listens. The API defaults to 25 results per
    request. Now fetches up to 1000 per page and loops via max_ts until
    all listens are retrieved.

  • Use recording_mbid from mbid_mapping when present. Previously
    mbid was left as None when the mapping existed, falling back to
    expensive MB API lookups unnecessarily.

    Fixes #6469 (remaining issues after #6471)

feat(chroma): add chromasearch command (#6486)

Add a new command to the chroma plugin: chromasearch.

This command lets user search the database by chromaprint fingerprint
similarity.
Database item fingerprints are computed on the fly if needed. This is
useful for example to check if an unknown / untagged audio file already
exists in the database.

Will update changelog and doc once naming & co are sorted.

fix(replaygain): clear conflicting tags on write (#6498)

There are two ways to store replay gain data on music files: RG_ and
R128_ (opus).
Before this change the beets replaygain plugin simply set the right tag
based on file format and r128 config value. there are case, however,
when for example an opus files comes with RG_ tags already set. After
beet write its replaingain tags the files will contain both RG_ and
R128_ tags with possibly conflicting values.

For example, Navidrome currently always prefers RG_ tags over R128_
regardless of format, leading tags set by beets to be ignored.
https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome/blob/23f3556371321faf199866989b906f2ef06a8034/model/metadata/map_mediafile.go#L111

As per RFC 7845: Ogg Encapsulation for the Opus Audio Codec
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7845#section-5.2.1

To avoid confusion with multiple normalization schemes, an Opus
comment header SHOULD NOT contain any of the REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN,
REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK, REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_GAIN, or
REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_PEAK tags, unless they are only to be used in some
context where there is guaranteed to be no such confusion.

Since the replaygain plugin does not support setting both RG_ and R128_
at the same time it doesn't make much sense to keep conflicting tags
when writing. These tags are also easy to recalculate if needed either
with beets itself (with a different configuration), or by running
replaygain commands by hand. no valuable information is lost.

This change makes it so the replagain plugin now deletes conflicting
tags when processing library items:

  • RG_ are deleted if we set R128_
  • R128_ are deleted if we set RG_

Handle legacy fields in modify and queries (#6494)

Handle legacy singular field names in modify and queries

This PR centralises the mapping of legacy singular field names (e.g.
genre, composer, lyricist, remixer, arranger) to their modern
plural multi-valued equivalents (e.g. genres, composers, ...) and
applies that rewrite in two places: the modify command and library
field queries.

What changed

beets/util/deprecation.py — new source of truth

Two module-level dicts, ALBUM_LEGACY_TO_LIST_FIELD and
ITEM_LEGACY_TO_LIST_FIELD, now live here. A new helper
maybe_replace_legacy_field(field, is_album) wraps the lookup, emits a
deprecation warning via the shared log, and returns the canonical
field name.

beets/library/models.py — queries now handle legacy fields

field_query calls maybe_replace_legacy_field before resolving
whether the field is fast or slow. This means queries like genre::rock
or composer::bach are transparently rewritten and warn the user.

beets/ui/commands/modify.py — simplified using the shared helper

The inline legacy-field lookup and deprecate_for_user call inside
modify_parse_args are replaced with a single call to
maybe_replace_legacy_field. The is_album parameter is passed through
from modify_func.

beets/autotag/hooks.pyLEGACY_TO_LIST_FIELD now references the
shared dicts

AlbumInfo and TrackInfo no longer define their own inline mappings;
they reference the canonical dicts from deprecation.py.

Impact

  • Users who pass legacy field names in modify assignments or in
    query expressions now get a deprecation warning and correct behaviour,
    instead of silently operating on a non-existent field.
  • The legacy mapping is defined once, removing the previous drift risk
    between hooks.py, modify.py, and any future call sites.
  • Fixes 🐛6483.

Use multi value remixers, composers, lyricists and arrangers (#6487)

Migrate artist-credit fields to multi-value lists

Fixes: #5698
Supersedes: #5847

This converts remixer, lyricist, composer, and arranger into
proper multi-value fields: remixers, lyricists, composers, and
arrangers.

What changed

  • Data model (beets/library/models.py): replaces the legacy
    single-string remixer, lyricist, composer, and arranger fields
    with multi-value list fields.
  • Migrations (beets/library/migrations.py,
    beets/library/library.py): extracts a reusable
    MultiValueFieldMigration base class and adds field-specific migrations
    for remixers, lyricists, composers, and arrangers.
  • Metadata compatibility (beets/autotag/hooks.py): centralizes
    legacy singular-to-plural compatibility in Info / TrackInfo, so old
    assignments like info.remixer = "..." still work and populate the new
    list fields.
  • MusicBrainz (beetsplug/musicbrainz.py): now preserves these
    credits as lists instead of comma-joined strings.
  • Follow-up updates: adjusts tests, docs, and related field mappings
    (aura, bpd) to use the plural multi-value fields, and bumps the
    minimum mediafile version to 0.16.0.

Impact

  • Existing libraries are migrated automatically on first run.
  • Older code assigning singular string fields continues to work via the
    compatibility shim, but emits DeprecationWarnings.
  • These metadata fields now behave consistently with other multi-value
    fields like genres.
