[BUG] 0 Graph score with empty tags about search-by-distance-smp HOT 5 CLOSED

Ok, should work now.

from search-by-distance-smp.

Good to know it's a bug.
I tried the latest version. With the same reference track (the one that is Psychedelic Rock) the few tracks with empty "graph" tags have disappeared. The result is better: this time there are only identical genres (in those "graph" tags) in the playlist. So that's great.

With a reference track with empty "graph" tags, the result is the same: the 2 playlists are identical.
I've seen the warning. I understand the logic, but it can be a bit surprising to still have these "0 Graph" scores in the console, when it's a Weight method, and the "graph" tags can be empty on both sides. That's okay because I got your explanation. Maybe add in the warning that "all Graph scores will be 0"?

Thank you for this improvement and for the explanation.

That's a bug, the distance for not found genres (or in this case no genre) is Infinity.

At some point I deleted the check for no genres, should be fixed now (can not test it).

• A reference track with no genre will throw a warning and report any other track as zero distance (uses WEIGHT as fallback and just compares scores). Why? Because it's a more logic expectation than having zero results using GRAPH.
• For reference track with genre, compared tracks with no genre will have an Infinity distance (and thus never used at output). Again the most logical expectation.

Let me know

EDIT: found other things in the process, wait some time.

Yep, will add something like that and improve it.

I saw the new messages in the console. It's good, it shows well when the tags are empty.
