^^ Eeew, that's disgusting!

It's true

Hmm, I'm going the other way. I'm getting stuff from library to input it into MB.

< Faux, in pm> I may as well take up coke.

It's true.

hm, i need to ar ef vee

done!

you should exploit holidays to rfc more things ;)

lol

RFV! cute, warp

:D

hmm

CatCat!

Is there a way to make picard write ID3-tags to FLAC-files aswell? My stupid MP3-player wont handle FLAC metadata properly. :/

peh: no

oh well :/

you use flac on your mp3 player?

why not? :)

bit excessive if you ask me :p

heh, well.. it's an iAudio 7. it has 16 GBs of flash memory.

same as me, except I have the 8GB one :(

sound quality is awesome, but its software is slightly braindead :/

too bad it doesn't have proper ogg support, have to transcode to crappy mp3

rockbox is coming for it soon though, soon as it's stable I'll change to ogg -2 or something like that

yea, I noticed that. :/

half the size of mp3

well I certainly hope so. I'd like rockbox very much

I used it on my old x5, it's.. rocking

btw, do you run Linux?

Wizzcat: i use flac on my pmp

I'm having some transfer speed issues with my iAudio. I know there's a supposed fix for it (reformatting the drive with 16 KB cluster size), but it doesn't seem to work for me :/

if only they could make a PMP with 300+ GB harddrive and 60+ hours runtime. *drool*

Wizzcat: not because I need the sound quality, but I can't be bothered to transcade everything.

i just want reliable 3G coverage in my area, then I can just stream from home :)

peh: You can get 2.5" 250gb flash drives, that has to help. :)

Whip open an iRiver, plonk one in..

heh, well.. there's still the issue of runtime :P

warp: well if you have lots of space then sure, but for me it's probably faster to transcode+transfer than transfer a huge file

not to mention I can fit in 10x as much music

Wizzcat: ah, i probably don't have much cpu power :)

Wait, how big is flac, 5mb/minute ish?

FauxFaux: depends on the source

bit more I think

FauxFaux: I have some albums which hardly get smaller when going from .wav to .flac

8-900kbit?

The ish was a short version of "cd sourced audio of modern pop music". ¬_¬

Average bitrate across that NiN release is 1801kbps, but that's obviously not realistic.

(1.2.1 reference --best)

Massively parallel encode of 11-track cd from wav to flac and vorbis works suprisingly well.

948 kbps for that cd in flac. :)

Foobar knows, you could estimate it with du and the length, though.

Unless you put 600dpi png'd cover art scans in the tags, 'cos losing information you can't see or hear is obviously not cool.

</not a flac fan>

When I can't find a single PC player that'll play vorbis, or I can suddenly tell the difference between q7 vorbis and cd quality, I'm perfectly happy to re-rip my stuff. :)

ripping is such an ordeal for me, i definitely only want to do that once.

not to mention that it's hard to rerip music you borrow from others/library

outsidecontext_: you should sign up on the mentor summit list...

outsidecontext_: I added us both.

Kenith Clark has a baby moose in his closet.

Moose \o/

ruaok: cool, thx

np

i'm low on time at the moment, will take care of the summit early next week

I think us putting ourselves on the schedule was the most important step

:)

what were the dates again?

Saturday and Sunday, 25 & 26 October

crap. I have to be in SF on the 20th too.

two trips up north. sigh.

bad timing

how far is it for you?

at least its only a 3 hour drive for me.

and not a 10 hour flight.

i have that every weekend :)

the 3 hour drive

ick.

drive or train?

I think I would chose the 4 hour train.

i sometimes do

but i like driving

FYI: http://blog.musicbrainz.org/?p=345

Migrating to the new switch tomorrow.

and hopefully soon be done with futzing with hardware.

natta folkens

Nn mo.

nikki_ is now known as nikki

ohhh. I can haz code. finally.

nikki_ is now known as nikki

I'm adding cover ARs to a track, but it has two tracks, one is hidden after some silence. Do I just add both cover ARs to the track and hope people are smart enough to figure things out or is this impossible?

Track 12

hope people are smart enough? ha!

there's no limit of stupidity :)

:)

Kerensky97: That's still the best way to do it. See http://musicbrainz.org/track/d5082733-d289-4f3f... for instance

Cool. I'm mostly excited to create the AR from the Charles Manson album to a popular rock album.
