This new release includes lots of new features in the importer and the
8+
metadata source backends that it uses.

We've changed how the beets importer handles non-audio tracks listed in
10+
metadata sources like MusicBrainz:
11+
12+
* The importer now ignores non-audio tracks (namely, data and video tracks)
13+
listed in MusicBrainz. Also, a new option, :ref:`ignore_video_tracks`, lets
14+
you return to the old behavior and include these video tracks.

* A new importer option, :ref:`ignored_media`, can let you skip certain media
17+
formats.

There are other subtle improvements to metadata handling in the importer:

* In the MusicBrainz backend, beets now imports the

``musicbrainz_releasetrackid`` field. This is a first step toward

28+
to prefer the artist credit over the artist when autotagging.
