I was actually trying to find the problem in Date queries malfunction? and just imported/beet info
ed some files which had tags of “2019” for date and/or originalyear and got displayed as originaldate: 2019-01-01
so I was assuming you used an SQLite date field.
The problem is still: Storing (or showing) an album that might have been released in September, 2019 under a date of 2019-01-01
. Which is a valid date but wrong.
