luks: That was the problem. Works fine with 1.9.

well, "lunch" took a little while longer than anticipated.

I finally found out what was making Picard so shit slow

I forgot to install USB2 drivers for where I was plugging this hdd into...

USB1.0 ftl.

Anyone about who has an idea on what to do with http://torrenty.org/torrent/61940

It's released in Russian, but is it worth adding a translated version?

'worth' is in the eye of the beholder

Okay, will I get shouted at if I bother?

no, certainly not

In that case...

translations, especially for those albums in weird character sets are very welcome

mustaqila: you probably know to add the AR link between the two :)

Yeah

i assume part of the reason that was made to automate the process of making it one release again when the DB eventually supports it.

+is

What type of AR should I file it as warp ?

"performs as"?

i mean the '<release> is the original tracklisting for the translated <release>' AR

Ah

I've added the artist name in both Russian and English heh

oh, that is not normally done.

Well, I figure, translated album, give it to that translated artist

Then link that to the Russian artist's release

well, with all the japanese we never have two artists.

In that case, I'll kill off the English artist name

http://musicbrainz.org/search/textsearch.html?q... Having had said that

taggers can set picard to use the sort name for tagging, picard changes the sortname back to <firstname> <lastname>.

They're the same artists

ok, should be merged under their russian name.

ofcourse unless you can show they consistently release non-russian albums under one name and russian stuff under the other --- or something like that.

I'll do it in a bit once I'm done with Славянская Хроника

ok, have fun! :)

Arkona has only ever released under her Russian artist name iirc

i'm going to clean up my appartement, some ppl will visit me for a late christmas breakfast.

_o/

Bah, one of them's missign a translation

any picard devs in here?

Luks is probably asleep at this hour

it seems like picard is seriously lacking in a few areas.... i want to just hack some sort of simple longest-common-substring matching routine in

but i'm not sure how the whole codebase is organized...

praest76_ is now known as praest76

uhh?

You wern't supposed to see that. :)

i see everything! :)

puid_submit is a wonderful piece of scripting, shame it's in python. :)

Anything human readable would be nice. ;) I just have a slight objection to .PonyLove files.

Mmm, are there php bindings? :p

HAh

Pweeeeeeds

Fauxy wanna pweeeeeee(d).

Faux.

Har

Gah, blahblahbhloah!

good the brainzblog software fucking sucks

good god*

if URL and email are required, than it needs to be denoted.

BrianG: how about phrasing that as a more positive suggestion? :)

i have

many times

so now i'm just going to be blunt.

Tikkit!

5 months old

and that was written way after the problem has been brought up many many times

Hardly something I see as "high priority" though

nothing seems to fall under the category "high priority" around here, though

Meh.

if you're lucky it might end up as "wishlist"

I'm assuming brainzblog is open sores and in svn, you could go submit a patch?

submitting patches also tend to end up in the "wishlist" category... at least that's my experience so far

its running on movabletype, which is garbage

high priority? no. super simple to fix? highly probable.

It's still a case of putting time aside to do it

so what?

it's still broken

BrianG: how about proposing a thoroughly research solution? so that someone else doesn't have to do the leg work?

i already have

If there are more important thing to tend to, time usually can't be put aside. As is the case with most projects, there's too much to do, and not enough people/time to do it in a desired timeframe

So you getting all pissy and getting sand in your vagina isn't going to do much

well.. i'm just saying.. the blog sucks
