Summary: Update MusicBrainz tag support
Classification: Platform
Product: GStreamer
Version: unspecified
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal

GNOME version: ---
Current MusicBrainz tags are rather outdated. There is
GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_TRMID, but MusicBrainz purged TRMs[1] from its database
ages ago, being replaced by PUIDs[2]. PUIDs were, in turn, purged from the DB
about a month ago[3], having been superseded by AcoustIDs[4].
Also, GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_TRACKID does not define Track IDs but rather
Recording IDs. Track IDs are being stored in "MusicBrainz Release Track ID"
(see
https://github.com/musicbrainz/picard/commit/04c30355e2743b7f0bd2cbfce89472483a0d5b85
for MusicBrainz Picard's implementation). (Release) Track IDs were introduced
(at the database level) in May this year:

Some other MB tags are also missing. I'd suggest the following tags get
implemented:
// Core MusicBrainz IDs
GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_RELEASETRACKID
GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_RELEASEGROUPID
GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_WORKID
// Fingerprinting tags used (past or present) in relation to MB
GST_TAG_MUSICIP_PUID
GST_TAG_ACOUSTID_ID
GST_TAG_ACOUSTID_FINGERPRINT
// Auxilliary tags set by MusicBrainz Picard and/or Jaikoz that are more
tangentially MB related
GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMSTATUS
GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMTYPE
GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_ORIGINALALBUMID
