Jugdish: Sorry to take so long replying! Thanks for the kind words :) The extra search panel is a theory thing when we were experimenting with other ways to present the search fields

Some people in fact, were unaware of the extra search options (ie annotations) – I'd like to make it a user preference which search boxes they want, but haven't touched that code yet, and want to get feedback on whether it's worth doing or not

acid2: ah i see. i gotta say i like the drop-down menu version with the "Go" button better than the multiple text fields with no "Go" button :)

and ruaok, ping?

yllona: track 7 is roll with my baby
2007-08-12 22441, 2007
deadchip has to gather from listening
2007-08-12 22442, 2007
Jugdish
especially since entering something for both an artist and a release in those text fields doesn't do what you would expect!
2007-08-12 22450, 2007
deadchip
we won't find that release
2007-08-12 22451, 2007

I like multiple fields myself. I like to have quick access to anything I want to find, which is why I like the idea of a single search field :)

deadchip: What'd I say is track 6 on the 1963 EP....
2007-08-12 22458, 2007
Jugdish
if we're going to have multiple text fields like that, it would be cool to have it use the advanced query syntax to submit both
2007-08-12 22405, 2007
deadchip
yllona: yeah it can't be that
2007-08-12 22448, 2007
deadchip
let's see if i can find it on amazon
2007-08-12 22458, 2007
aCiD2
Jugdish: Yea, that's why I feel the dropdown is more intuitive :)
2007-08-12 22425, 2007
Jugdish
acid2: could we get a checkbox for "advanced query syntax" next to the "direct search" checkbox?
2007-08-12 22455, 2007
aCiD2
Sure can
2007-08-12 22404, 2007
Jugdish
woo! :)

when rob is around, I'm gonna make a blog post, which explains the double search options, cause I've had a lot of questions (mainly, "Huh whaaa?" :P)
2007-08-12 22434, 2007
deadchip
unfindable
2007-08-12 22435, 2007

eh
2007-08-12 22448, 2007

deadchip: according to my journal: what i'd say was orginally released as a 45 rpm (pts. 1 & 2) in 1959 on atlantic
2007-08-12 22401, 2007
deadchip
it's not a reissue of that one
2007-08-12 22406, 2007
deadchip
i almost think by now it's a bootleg
2007-08-12 22420, 2007
deadchip
but it looks totally legit and i bought it in a totally normal music 'warehouse'
2007-08-12 22425, 2007
yllona
first LP (actually EP) release was 1963 on "I can't stop loving you" now released as cat no. # HMV 8781
2007-08-12 22412, 2007
deadchip
well as all my real CDs are still in the cellar of my previous aptmt. i can't check
2007-08-12 22432, 2007
yllona
here's what's in my notes, as i don't have access to the vinyl atm. track listing on the 1963 EP: 1) Hit the road jack, 2) hallelujah, i love her so 3) mess around 4) Let's get stoned 5) don't let the sun catch you crying 6) What'd I say 7) Georgia on my mind 8) I got a woman 9) Drown in my own tearas 10) Night time is the right time 11) Eleanor Rigby 12) I can't stop Loving you
2007-08-12 22432, 2007
deadchip
but it was a CD, 10 tracks, first track is what'd i say and it was some sort of compilation
2007-08-12 22440, 2007
deadchip
yllona: it's not that one
2007-08-12 22435, 2007
yllona
oh, i wouldn't know in that case
2007-08-12 22455, 2007
yllona
there's bazillion compilatins that include "what'd i say"
2007-08-12 22407, 2007
deadchip
yeah..
2007-08-12 22414, 2007
aCiD2
hey mo/CatCat ping?
2007-08-12 22434, 2007
yllona
that's why i brak my compilations out to original release, if in fact the comliatiion includes the original recording
2007-08-12 22442, 2007
deadchip
the problem is just
2007-08-12 22445, 2007
yllona
*compliation includes

luks: if picard would find that this PUID appears on > 1 release, what would it do?
2007-08-12 22412, 2007
deadchip
or what will it do..
2007-08-12 22414, 2007
luks
compare the metadata to all of them
2007-08-12 22418, 2007
luks
sort by similarity
2007-08-12 22437, 2007
deadchip
ok
2007-08-12 22439, 2007
luks
pick the best match if the similarity > user's threshold
2007-08-12 22443, 2007
deadchip
so since no other release with that PUID is on MB
2007-08-12 22449, 2007
deadchip
it assumed it must be that one
2007-08-12 22440, 2007
yllona
deadchip: the studio recording is about 6:30 minutes long in duration, which is why in had to be released as two 45 rpm sides back in the 1950's-60s.
2007-08-12 22401, 2007
deadchip
there are 2 "old" recordings i know from
2007-08-12 22406, 2007
deadchip
know of*
2007-08-12 22414, 2007
yllona
i have seen/heard compilations with only the "A" side of the 45 rpms
2007-08-12 22415, 2007
deadchip
they have the same arrangement, the same backing, etc
2007-08-12 22455, 2007
yllona
the "live" version is more famous now (thanks to the movie), that's from 1965
2007-08-12 22403, 2007
yllona
and 1973
2007-08-12 22419, 2007
deadchip
but the one is shorter and doesn't have this instrumental part in between
last I heard, we're to use '...' rather than the unicode character until the tools can be made to play nice... there's a style guide somewhere about that.

hello MartinRudat how have you been?

I think it's a note in the wiki particularly in reference to the << and >> symbols

I've been pretty good. I've gotten a haircut and a real job, it's been keeping me busy recently. =) how've you been?

2007-08-12 22436, 2007

As in, our media players reading metadata correctly?
2007-08-12 22400, 2007
MartinRudat
or the tagger being kind to the media players, iirc.
2007-08-12 22413, 2007
