        Hi
      • 2008-02-24 05515, 2008

      • cizra
        I need some help.
      • 2008-02-24 05526, 2008

      • cizra
        I added this disk: http://musicbrainz.org/show/release/?releaseid=60… almost a year ago
      • 2008-02-24 05530, 2008

      • cizra
        and then forgot about it completely.
      • 2008-02-24 05541, 2008

      • yllona
        help with what?
      • 2008-02-24 05552, 2008

      • cizra
        I was asked a few questions. I answered them here: http://musicbrainz.org/mod/search/results.html?ob…

        (notes)
      • 2008-02-24 05518, 2008

      • cizra
        Well, I want the changes to get somewhere. The guy who cleaned my mess up has probably long since forgotten me.
      • 2008-02-24 05527, 2008

      • cizra
        For example: where do I stick that disk ID?
      • 2008-02-24 05533, 2008

      • cizra
        Also, how do I figure it out in the first place?
      • 2008-02-24 05504, 2008

      • yllona
        you mean the catalog number and label or the PUID (acoustic fingerprint)
      • 2008-02-24 05515, 2008

      • cizra
        No, disk ID
      • 2008-02-24 05530, 2008

      • cizra
        The guy asked: If you have the cd, could you add the discid?
      • 2008-02-24 05542, 2008

      • cizra
        Well, I have the CD, but I'm not sure about that discid.
      • 2008-02-24 05502, 2008

      • yllona
        hold on, i'm reading everything
      • 2008-02-24 05529, 2008

      • warp
        cizra: the discid is calculated by picard when you try to look up a cd with picard.
      • 2008-02-24 05525, 2008

      • yllona
        i can't help you with the disc id, as i have a mac
      • 2008-02-24 05527, 2008

      • warp
        cizra: by using picard to search for a cd in this way, you can also add the discid of that cd to a release in musicbrainz.
      • 2008-02-24 05529, 2008

      • cizra
        What's that picard?
      • 2008-02-24 05540, 2008

      • cizra
        Some kind of music player?
      • 2008-02-24 05516, 2008

      • yllona
        it's an automated tool for musicbrianz that wil identify tracks in your collection
      • 2008-02-24 05526, 2008

      • yllona
        one sec...
      • 2008-02-24 05532, 2008

      • warp
      • 2008-02-24 05548, 2008

      • warp
        cizra: how are you using musicbrainz?
      • 2008-02-24 05556, 2008

      • cizra
        Am not using it.
      • 2008-02-24 05506, 2008

      • cizra
        I just tried to pull the disc data from CDDB.
      • 2008-02-24 05510, 2008

      • yllona
      • 2008-02-24 05524, 2008

      • cizra
        Then I saw that since it has no disc id set, it hasn't wound up in CDDB at all.
      • 2008-02-24 05537, 2008

      • cizra
        That's why I want now the disc id to appear there.
      • 2008-02-24 05504, 2008

      • yllona
        but if you have the CD, you can add the release events (release date/country for the CD)
      • 2008-02-24 05514, 2008

      • warp
        cizra: musicbrainz doesn't add anything to CDDB
      • 2008-02-24 05525, 2008

      • yllona
        to get the disc id you'll need to install picard
      • 2008-02-24 05501, 2008

      • cizra
        OK, what's that Label field?
      • 2008-02-24 05508, 2008

      • cizra
        What's that Catalog # field?
      • 2008-02-24 05523, 2008

      • warp
        cizra: record label, catalog number.
      • 2008-02-24 05534, 2008

      • cizra
        Record label? Well, it has no labels on it.
      • 2008-02-24 05539, 2008

      • cizra
        Frankly I don't understand that terminology.
      • 2008-02-24 05505, 2008

      • cizra
        In other words, I have no idea what to put in any of these fields -- except the format, which is regular audio CD.
      • 2008-02-24 05513, 2008

      • cizra
        Also, there's no field to put disc id into.
      • 2008-02-24 05535, 2008

      • cizra feels useless.
      • 2008-02-24 05509, 2008

      • yllona
        cizra: to you have an official copy of this CD? if so the record label and catalog number with be printed on the CD inserts.
      • 2008-02-24 05512, 2008

      • cizra
        yes

      • yllona
        okay look on the CD case, on the back
      • 2008-02-24 05539, 2008

      • cizra
        Heh. The case is long gone (=
      • 2008-02-24 05500, 2008

      • yllona
        what about the CD insert?
      • 2008-02-24 05504, 2008

      • cizra
        wait, no
      • 2008-02-24 05505, 2008

      • cizra
        found them
      • 2008-02-24 05538, 2008

      • yllona
        okay, the label will be printed on the CD itself, and the CD insert
      • 2008-02-24 05507, 2008

      • yllona
        the catalog number is usually printed below the label name
      • 2008-02-24 05523, 2008

      • cizra
        hmmhmm
      • 2008-02-24 05528, 2008

      • cizra
        3-1656-2 (above)

        (LC) 1083 below it
      • 2008-02-24 05542, 2008

      • cizra
        LC is in a circle

        DDD is the type of audio recording "Digital/digital/digital"
      • 2008-02-24 05549, 2008

      • cizra
        OK
      • 2008-02-24 05517, 2008

      • cizra
        So, 3-1656-2 is probably the label?
      • 2008-02-24 05528, 2008

      • cizra
        No way to figure out the release date, I suppose...
      • 2008-02-24 05539, 2008

      • yllona
        no, probly catalog number one sec
      • 2008-02-24 05518, 2008

      • yllona
        is thhis the CD?

      • yllona
      • 2008-02-24 05539, 2008

      • cizra
        no

      • cizra searches amazon as well

      • cizra
        nope
      • 2008-02-24 05523, 2008

      • cizra
        The name is "Instruments in Concert", but http://www.amazon.com/Instruments-in-Concert/dp/B… is not it.
      • 2008-02-24 05541, 2008

      • yllona
        here's his web site: http://www.sadlo-percussion.de/

        yes!
      • 2008-02-24 05532, 2008

      • yllona
        the label is koch international
      • 2008-02-24 05554, 2008

      • warp
        I would say the label is "Koch Schwann"
      • 2008-02-24 05507, 2008

      • yllona
        it's the same
      • 2008-02-24 05550, 2008

      • cizra
        The disc is manufactured in Austria.
      • 2008-02-24 05502, 2008

      • cizra
        But the release might have been in Germany or something.

      • 2008-02-24 05527, 2008

      • cizra
        I think I'll just put Austria in there.
      • 2008-02-24 05542, 2008

      • cizra
        OK, what about catalog number? 3-1656-2?
      • 2008-02-24 05514, 2008

      • cizra
        Barcode is probably hopeless...
      • 2008-02-24 05527, 2008

      • cizra
        oh, wait, it's on the case as well
      • 2008-02-24 05544, 2008

      • warp
        yllona: label code and catalog numbers don't match up.
      • 2008-02-24 05507, 2008

      • yllona
        label web site: http://www.kochentertainment.com/ this artist is not listed
      • 2008-02-24 05538, 2008

        yllona: Koch International acquired Schwann, and relabeled it as Koch/Schwann.

      • cizra
        I really can't understand the reason.
      • 2008-02-24 05548, 2008

      • yllona
        becuase it needs to be calculated
      • 2008-02-24 05509, 2008

      • cizra
        bc0c7f0d there ya go, calculated it

        lloks like, i have several koch recordings ...
      • 2008-02-24 05552, 2008

      • yllona
        too bad, was a great affordable classical label
      • 2008-02-24 05510, 2008

      • yllona
        here's koch's structure now: http://www.kochent.com/companychart.htm
      • 2008-02-24 05559, 2008

      • cizra
        So, what should I stick into those Label and Catalog # fields?

      • 2008-02-24 05513, 2008

        therefore it won't wind up in CDDB
      • 2008-02-24 05520, 2008

      • cizra
        therefore the whole business will be useless for me.

      • 2008-02-24 05519, 2008

      • cizra
        Well, my point. It won't wind up there because it has no discid attached.
