Add "Album Artist" to CSV Downloader format

RudeySH opened this issue · comments

Without the Album Artist field, it's impossible to tell from the CSV if multiple artists share an album (e.g. a compilation). Can this field be added?

Interestingly, the README currently already claims that the Album Artist is already in the format, but it's not, I've checked the code.

This is unfortunately not possible, as the last.fm api does not provide this information when getting the recent scrobbles.

And yes, there is a field in the csv for the album artist, but it will always be empty.

That's unfortunate. I was starting to wonder why other Last.fm data export tools had similar limitations.

And yes, there is a field in the csv for the album artist, but it will always be empty.

I see, it's between timestamp and duration, but duration also appears to be empty all the time, so the CSV really only has 4 fields at the moment.

Yea, the api is kinda wonky in some parts and I think things like duration are unused but are still returned by the api.
