pjo2: musicbrainz gives every artist, album and track in its database an id, those are MBIDs. when you use musicbrainz's tagging programs (mb_tagger or picard), it writes those to the file too
pjo2
so MBID and ID3 tag are different and separate ?
nikki_
no
well, MBIDs are stored in ID3 tags in mp3s
pjo2
i am confused
MartinRudat stops adding to the confusion, then...
what are the difference of those ID3 tags and MBIDs ?

MBID are store in id3tags... just with names like "MUSICBRAINZ ALBUM ARTIST ID" instead of artist... and most players don't read those fields
nikki_
ID3 tags are a way of storing data in mp3s, MBIDs are unique IDs musicbrainz uses. MBIDs can be stored in ID3 tags just like you can store artist, album, track number, and other info

LazySod: thanks
LazySod has quit
so MBIDs are numbers ?
not characters ?
Muz
MBIDs are garbled crap

lol @ muz
Muz
Like aad342-sdwq22szd-343ad-3-ad Or whatever they are
pjo2
so i do not have to pay attention to MBID ?
Muz
They make no sense to people, but only machines with MBID reading capabilities
MartinRudat blinks... has there been something going around and deleting annotations?
nikki_
"20172e89-b8a5-4675-bd79-792d50d846a9" is one
pjo2
bene
so it is like PUID ?
Muz
Hmmm, sort of
MartinRudat added an annotation to http://musicbrainz.org/album/48fc1722-ad72-419a-8395-15bbea4aadbe.html just today, and there isn't one anymore...
pjo2: somewhere in the options there should be one which lets you log the chats
MartinRudat looks confused... I could have sworn that I've entered an annotation for every album I've added over the last few weeks...
Mud
he should never be voting no just because you didnt provide a link. he can ask for one by all means, but theres no need to vote no
srotta
Ah, someone creating new rules again.
Mud
I'm impressed you found one link for a aussie release, I usually never find any
pjo2
nikki: I cannot find such setting
MartinRudat
Mud: well... this is a release by EMI, so it's got at least the label's site (HMV is apparently EMI's record store chain, so...)
Lazysod has quit
MartinRudat wonders if he's going to have to go through all the albums he's entered recently, and re-add annotations, because I'm _certain_ I've added an annotation for each add release I've done in the last three weeks...
mudcrow has quit
MartinRudat is going to be going through his entire collection and adding annotations anyway, but I could have sworn I've done this one before...
Mud
Mud is now known as mudcrow
pjo2
nikki: I found logging but how can I log the previous chats today ?
nikki_
if it doesn't happen automatically, I don't know.
pjo2
bian sur, merci
MartinRudat thinks that you might need to cut and paste, to be on the safe side.
Martin: that is the problem, I cannot copy it !
MartinRudat
scroll up, select all the text, right-click, copy? *shrug* it's been a while since I've used windows.
pjo2
Even I cannot mark any text

check the file that mirc is saving to to see what you've saved? failing that, I could send you a copy of the appropriate portions of my logs if mirc isn't being helpful...
