the "Edit all Track Artists" is down at bottom atm
warp
(it's also not my bug, i don't remember this ever annoying me :)
ah, right
brianfreud
aren't you aka Kilu ?
warp
nooooo
brianfreud
oh, doh, thought you were :D
warp
i am work, my real name (and mb user account) is Kuno.

brianfreud
doh, I read Kilu and Kuno :P
warp
well, real, real, what's real? but my parents call me Kuno :)

Can we have a per track revert? So one could use Guess All, and then revert 1 or 2 individual tracks?
brianfreud
Haven't gotten that far at all, with GC, but yeah, I agree that'd be nice
just don't also want to overload the interface
warp hopes ruaok hires a competent interaction designer some day :)
maybe change the GC button to a revert button once GC is used? Does anyone other than me ever use the Guess Case button multiple times?
(for tracks, I mean)
my own pet peeve is sentence case being applied to artist names
Muz
warp: once TT is done, branch it and make your own frontend to the data! It'll be easier than on the Mason branch...
navap
I use it on individual tracks, which means multiple uses
nikki
the only time I've needed it is when I had the wrong capitalisation set
to press it more than once, I mean
warp
Muz: _I_ don't need another interface, i've been using this one for a while and know where everything is.
brianfreud
the way I'm thinking to implement the interface, though, I'll be separating artist fields from track fields, so current case setting is applied to tracks, while "artist name case" hits artist fields
Muz
I still think that the site could do with a nice overhaul. Right from the ground up at some point.
navap
huh, why would anyone need to GC an artist?
brianfreud
exactly
set GC to sentence case atm. It'll sentence case unlocked artist names
navap
Oh, so you're fixing the problem then
brianfreud
yes, I think my implementation will do that.
nikki
I think only the edit artist screen should change the artist case, editing the case from the edit all page wouldn't really do much
brianfreud
Separate time fields too, so "fix times" can do things like period --> :
navap
The track parser already does that though.
brianfreud
no, it doesn't
navap
Oh..h
brianfreud
it parses 1.11 to 1.11, :54 to :54... It should parse them to 1:11 and 0:54
navap
hm
Kerensky97
I must really be out of it. How do you lock artist names?
outsidecontext has left the channel
brianfreud
the little button on the left, same as on live
Though normally, you'd be locking them via the lookup script - it's just not implemented yet.

nikki shakes her head at the weird capitalisation of the stuff at the top of that page
navap
You mean like, "Check For Duplicates"?
nikki
no
I mean like "if you have chosen to display the Track Artists"
Kerensky97
"Language" in "Language,Script" is still the language the titles are in, not the language sung, correct?
nikki
yes
it wouldn't make much sense to pair the language of the audio with the script of the track titles

That's what I thought, but I was afraid something had changed in the last few months.
nikki
something change? hah :P

hmm... I'm checking sys.platform in python for any windows computer, does 'win32' work for that?
Skylar
hey?
nikki can't seem to find anything which lists what sort of values will be returned :/
FauxFaux
Returns win32 on win64.
Skylar has left the channel
warp
nikki: sounds like a bad way to go about things
what do you need it for?
nikki
I want to do one thing in windows and another in any other os
FauxFaux
>.<
nikki
really :P
warp
sys.exit() on windows? :)
LotR
heh, some perl module defines a constant and then does if (RUNNING_IN_HELL) to find out if they're running on win :)
navap
Apparently a realease with tracks, "Part I" through "Part XI" is guessed as Lithuanian.
Muz
O SO FUNNI
warp
nikki: anyway, my point is that it sounds a bit like for example user agent checking in javascript. should instead just test for whatever you actually need on the platform.
nikki
warp: well, I'm converting fullwidth tildes to wave dashes in osx/linux and wave dashes to fullwidth tildes in windows
LotR
warp: that's not always possible...
nikki
I don't really fancy writing something to convert the shift-jis codepoint to unicode just to see which platform it is
LotR
warp: for example, fork() sucks on windows, but it still exists, so yes you do want to check if you're running on windows

nikki
well it's only a simple picard plugin so that instead of getting a mixture of characters, it's always the character the os uses

LotR: sure, but i didn't know exactly what nikki was doing. the general principle is still valid :)
nikki: ok, that makes sense.

I should stop using well so much but... well... :D

warp
ok, putting windows 7 on this eeepc was not the best idea. it can't run most of the stuff i'm trying to run on it :)
nikki
hah
warp
i'll try to get xp on it soonish.
Kerensky97
Win 7 on my EEE works great.
Better than Vista.
nikki
you got one then?
Kerensky97
Yeah, right before they announce our jobs were going out the door. :P
But I can't part with it now.
warp
Kerensky97: most of the games I try don't run. and I don't need windows for anything else.
Kerensky97
Oh. I haven't put any games on yet so that could be why.
LotR
'better than vista' equals great? your standards are *so* low
Kerensky97
:P
warp
it's pretty slow too, ofcourse that's mostly down to the hardware. but I am curious now how XP will run on it.
Kerensky97
Vista is better than XP, Win7 is better than Vista (on an EEEPC). Therefore Win7>
CatCat
XP is betterthan vista
also what about mac music toys?
Kerensky97
Only if you have an old computer that can't handle vista. In which case XP is much better.

ruaok
not today, I didn't :-)
LotR watches as CatCat's apple is being reposessed for this heresy :)
CatCat
ruaok: so, i don't get to play? :(
LotR: please quit it
ruaok
pm me your mesg.

LotR
CatCat: oh, ok. I guess the reposessing is embarrassing enough without onlookers..
LotR has quit
CatCat
i really.. really didn [at t] understand what that was about
Kerensky97
I think he was just joking.
nikki
ruaok: I never did that email
