CDBaby script where ?

i actually have a list of releases that have a cdbaby link already and no TOC

which could import the TOC from cdbaby

thanks BrainzBot

well, it was current as of a couple of weeks ago

err BrianFreud

ah, those would be good - the script is already set to import the tocs for those, just didn't have a list of those needing it

let me try to dig it up

or rerun the query

what about a list of releases which had a CD baby link in the add notes?

didn't do that

that would need the scary moderation tables

eh, i can't find it, i'll just rerun

I love how I have 173 installs for a script that currently doesn't actually DO anything :P

maybe someone installed it 170 times while trying to figure out how to make it work

nah, it's been going up incrementally

13 installs of the CD Baby script this month, 84 installs of Geordie in the same period

i guess people prefer scripts that don't do anything?

*shrug*

or maybe the concept is interesting enough that people wanna see where it current is in dev

why does the cdbaby script need both menus?

?

both buttons you mean?

no

both menus

BrianFreud this cdbaby script is awesome

zoke: thanks

nikki: haven't tried it without the menus, but iirc, it shouldn't make much difference

Geordie?

I even downloaded firefox just to try the script out :/

nikki: I don't remember if that's still true or not, but if it is, it's because MB actually sends different HTML for each menu-version of a page

aCiD2: The uberscript I've been working on

ah

brianfreud, http://www.numb.org/need_toc.html

decided it needed a trek-themed name :)

well, it doesn't work

and as far as I knew, it just didn't send the code for the side menu if it was turned off

zoke: there you go, lots to add tocs for :)

nikki: yes, exactly

what does the side menu code have to do with anything though?

BrianFreud, I have wondered though how does the script otain the TOC from the webpage ?

cdbaby insert it into their html, iirc

but that means document.getElementsByTagName("div")[6] is a different element in each menu version of the page

zoke: cd baby hid it in their pages for us

why not get an element by id within the main body of the page then?

because of the way the site currently is designed - almost nothing has names or ids, and within the table/table/list/table structure, the menus muck that up

getting Geordie to handle each version, with or without menus, was a pita

brianfreud, i'll see if i can dig anything else out of edit comments

I haven't looked at the source to the cd baby one in a while though - don't remember offhand what it needed to address that way, in the opera version

BrianFreud: are you going to hurt me when I break all your hard work over GSoC? ;)

nah

actually I'll welcome it

:)

could get something by class instead then...

there are plenty of classes

not always though

but yes, I do use that a few times to work around just that problem

rereading the code now...

td id="content-td" <- the td with the main stuff in it, the menus should have nothing to do with what's in there

best guess, it's ImportatMBTOCSearch() that breaks when the side menu is off

oh, i guess i don't have the closed mod tables

aCiD2: a lot of this would be unneeded if the site was better structured - hence my liking the idea of restructuring it: http://musicbrainz.pastebin.com/m2ced2a28

urgh

plus all the ifs to check exactly which version of the page we have, whether it's the AR view, the =mbid, the =id, with or without this or that or both menus, etc

so nikki, you use the top menu, but no side menu?

yeah, exactly

yeah, it's ImportatMBTOCSearch() that breaks

ok nikki, fixed and updated http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/17882

ace! thanks :)

:)

I always think of Dr Who when you say "Ace!" lol

hehe

but only my 3rd fav Dr :)

survey time :) - who is everyone's favorite Doctor?

Nick.

I've never seen it

how can you be British and never have seen Dr Who????

I've not watched it 'cos it's boring.

I didn't watch much tv as I grew up because the subtitles were crap

so all I watched were cartoons where understanding what was being said didn't matter

Dr Who is new.

lol

The Dr Who you're expected to have watched is new. :p

then by the time subtitles were good enough, I'd stopped watching tv altogether

dumb question, but why subtitles?

my hearing is crap

ah

wondered if it was that, but figured MB might not make much sense if you were 100% deaf

turning up the volume helps, but it's not uniform loss, some frequencies are worse than others

I want a copy of my graph thingy, but I'm always too shy to ask

could make your own

audiogram, that's it

how?

little util to cycle up through all the frequencies, little "can you hear this" yes/no - then just graph the output

but how will it know what db it is?

just generating pure tones?

do you mean just pure frequencies or pure frequencies at various volumes?

at various volumes, it wouldn't work otherwise

ah

it's frequency against intensity

actually, just yesterday I was playing with a BBC acoustics tester CD and realized I no longer can hear anything above about 16kHz, at any volume... still feel pain on sustained 16-20 kHz freqs at high volume, but can't actually hear them

hehe, my physics classes were always funny

whenever they started really high and got people to put their hands up when they could hear it, I would be sat there for aaaaages until I could hear it

this guy generated a bunch of tones

the 23kHz tone makes me feel ill

ah cool, I only have 10, 15, 18, 20 on this CD, had to guess where the cut off was

Foobar lets you add urls that look like tone://16000, fwiw.

Not good for your health.

hmmm, I can hear 15 kHz in both ears, but 16 only in one

owwwww

sample 2 is painful :(

wierd... I can hear all the way to 22 on the flash site http://www.jimmyr.com/blog/hearingloss.html , but I can't hear 18. 18kHz (-10dB_leg).ogg or 19. 20kHz (-10dB_leg).ogg from this CD...

yeah, i think that flash app is broken

everything from 17 up sounds like the same tone

they sound different to me

but i've not been able to hear 21kHz and up before

Flash app sounds completely different here (windows).

I can hear a slight difference between 17 and 18, but 18 to 22 all sound identical - and none have the physical pain feelng I get from the 18 or 20 kHz files I have...

I can hear 11khz in that flash thing

12 if I reeeeeeally concentrate

13, no way

I'm not sure foobar is doing it right. Could someone make some decent demo files? :p

I have the files if someone can host

the 22kHz tone on that site does kind of make me feel not well

i wonder if it was just my speakers were crap when i tried before

1Hz, 2Hz, 4 Hz, 8Hz, 17Hz, 20Hz, 31.5 Hz, 50 Hz, 100 Hz, 200 Hz, 500 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 5 kHz, 10 kHz, 15 kHz, 18 kHz and 20 kHz

listening with my nice headphones now

my ears are ringing like mad from that sample 2 one x_X

Why are there no simple scripts I can just dump on a web-server to let people upload files?
