mudcrow: I've ploughed through the docs, but found no mention of how to do it, just that one ought to.
Okay.
mudcrow
yeah, theres no mention about how to set ANVs in the help section. Discogs help is pretty poor, but its being re-written and hopefully a more helpful help section will be in place soon
Freso
Yeah.
mudcrow: Is there a way to see me failed edits?
mudcrow
any new submissions that have failed will be in drafts, for edits, the link should still work if you still have the email for the rejection
i just submitted a disc id for an album that doesnt have track time, but becuase of the disc id i cant add the track times, how do i add the track times?
FauxFaux
You can't bwahhahaa.
chancey
isnt the disc id supposed to provide the track times?
FauxFaux
It does in a later server release.
chancey
oh, so i cant add the track times without deleting the discid?
FauxFaux
Afaik, ask someone clever, though.,

warp just upgraded to etch on his server thing
warp
or.. well.. still working on it really.
ruaok
cool -- how did that go?
warp
not very well :)
ruaok
I've heard that the process is ugly...
warp
it was a sort of forced upgrade after .. i made some mistakes.
ruaok
oh. :-(
warp
i did an apt-get dist-upgrade out of habit, but forgot i still had sarge backports in my sources.list
which sort of fucked things up a bit.
the ugly bit here was the kernel, stuff about initrd images which couldn't be made. most of it got resolved without having to physically connect monitor+keyboard to the box
however, i wasn't sure if a -686 kernel would run on an amd k6... so I just tried. it didn't.
i still have to upgrade the rest, but i better remove all kinds of crap i'm not using first.
ruaok doesn't look forward to upgrading his machines
this is just my own box for mail+irc, it's ok if its offline for a few days.
(i pay an isp a few coins/year for bsmtp in case something like that happens, so i won't loose mail)
ruaok
smart man!

hello. first time user of musicbrainz here
i'm trying to get it to rename a bunch of files that are all called "Unknown Artist / Unknown Album"
will it do that? (and not just edit the stupid id3 tags - but actually rename the files and folders?)
Kerensky97
Yes
In the settings for picard you can have it rename the files along with the tags.
Nerd42
how do i do that?
i'm looking at file > options now
(in picard / windows)
ktwilight joined the channel
i have the "renaming files when editing metadata tags" option checked - the only problem is that it simply isn't doing it
Kerensky97
Weird, do the files have any write/read protection on them?
Nerd42
LOL i found it i think
1sec ... lemme get a link that will explain the problem i just had
