        I have a FLAC album that consistantly crashes Picard 0.11
      • 2009-02-11 04251, 2009

      • dholmes_
        Oh, hm, looks like it only happens when I drag the whole album at a time
      • 2009-02-11 04252, 2009

      • ojnkpjg
        does it have embedded art?
      • 2009-02-11 04214, 2009

      • dholmes_
        Maybe? I don't know.
      • 2009-02-11 04228, 2009

      • ojnkpjg
        see of there's a PICTURE block
      • 2009-02-11 04250, 2009

      • ojnkpjg
        i've noticed that if i reencode flac files with embedded art, then try to load them, picard crashes during fingerprinting
      • 2009-02-11 04253, 2009

      • ojnkpjg
        some kind of bug in ffmpeg
      • 2009-02-11 04201, 2009

      • dholmes_
        How does one go about finding if there's a PICTURE block without any special software?
      • 2009-02-11 04220, 2009

      • dholmes_
        The handful of files I managed with some effort to tag and import into Songbird don't have any artwork show up

        Turning off "automatically scan all new files" enabled me to load them just fine and tag them
      • 2009-02-11 04229, 2009

      • ojnkpjg
        metaflac --list will show all the blocks
      • 2009-02-11 04258, 2009

      • dholmes_
        Not quite motivated enough to install a package containing metaflac now that I got the files tagged ;)

        ok nikki, how's this for Guess Case buttons/etc, like we talked about? http://brianfreud.info:3001/artist/29fa4942-e5b8-…
      • 2009-02-11 04215, 2009

      • navap
        What if you manually add something after hitting GC, you only have an Undo button to click on.
      • 2009-02-11 04225, 2009

      • brianfreud
        yes, that had occurred to me too, but where else would we put an Undo button?
      • 2009-02-11 04230, 2009

      • navap
        What did you think of a track 'Revert' button?
      • 2009-02-11 04256, 2009

      • navap
        I think it would be a huge mistake to have only the undo visable after using GC
      • 2009-02-11 04213, 2009

      • navap
        My opinion would be multiple buttons
      • 2009-02-11 04249, 2009

      • brianfreud
        hmmm
      • 2009-02-11 04250, 2009

      • navap
        I know I very frequently edit what GC does, and then hit GC again.

        Does dmppanda actually get an email each time I edit my wiki?
      • 2009-02-11 04205, 2009

      • brianfreud
        yeah
      • 2009-02-11 04215, 2009

      • navap
        Oh boy..
      • 2009-02-11 04255, 2009

      • brianfreud
        navap: try it now
      • 2009-02-11 04210, 2009

      • navap
        oh haha..I thought you meant the wiki :p Yes, I like the dual buttons
      • 2009-02-11 04202, 2009

      • brianfreud
        how about the Guess All? Something nikki and I talked about
      • 2009-02-11 04220, 2009

      • navap
        What about it?
      • 2009-02-11 04228, 2009

      • brianfreud
        with the added mode selector
      • 2009-02-11 04247, 2009

      • brianfreud
        so you can change modes without scrolling to the top, like you used to have to
      • 2009-02-11 04248, 2009

      • navap
        Oh you mean having it there instead of in the ES settings?
      • 2009-02-11 04255, 2009

      • brianfreud
        no, it's in both places
      • 2009-02-11 04201, 2009

      • brianfreud
        I linked the two selects
      • 2009-02-11 04224, 2009

      • navap
        Ah, nice, don't think I've ever seen that before
      • 2009-02-11 04211, 2009

      • navap
        Personally, I don't use the mode selector all that much. In fact I can probably count on two hands the number of times I've used it.
      • 2009-02-11 04222, 2009

      • brianfreud
        depends what you work on...
      • 2009-02-11 04235, 2009

      • brianfreud
        I use it for French occasionally, but I switch between English and sentence all the time
      • 2009-02-11 04203, 2009

      • brianfreud
        easier/faster to change your global mode, then fix selected tracks, rather than deal with the little popup on every single track
      • 2009-02-11 04217, 2009

      • navap
        I don't know about the rest of the userbase, but yes exactly it depends on what you work on..so I'm going to secommend adding a setting to enable having it there inline or not.
      • 2009-02-11 04230, 2009

      • brianfreud
        easy enough
      • 2009-02-11 04220, 2009

      • navap
        I can understand the need for it so I agree that having it inline would be a good time savor.
      • 2009-02-11 04233, 2009

      • navap
        Is it possible to have the setting in the ES?
      • 2009-02-11 04209, 2009

      • navap
        In French, would "Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix" become "Blood on the Dance Floor : HIStory in the Mix"? Notice the colon.
      • 2009-02-11 04237, 2009

      • navap
      • 2009-02-11 04200, 2009

      • navap
        The French guide does say that punctuation must be preceded and followed by a space, but does a subtitle count as "punctuation"?
      • 2009-02-11 04238, 2009

      • brianfreud
        according to dmppanda when we talked about it a year or so back, yes
      • 2009-02-11 04245, 2009

      • navap
        Okay
      • 2009-02-11 04211, 2009

      • navap
        Maybe SubTitleStyle should be changed to include a note regarding French (and other languages?) style.
      • 2009-02-11 04203, 2009

      • brianfreud
        ok, preference added and working
      • 2009-02-11 04246, 2009

      • navap
        Should that preference be added to the global prefernces? Might it be added to the ES prefernces?
      • 2009-02-11 04226, 2009

      • brianfreud
        Well, anything I can set in ES would go into a cookie - not portable.
      • 2009-02-11 04252, 2009

      • brianfreud
        Makes more sense to me to keep all preferences as being set in one place, rather than have ES kept separate from other site preferences.
      • 2009-02-11 04214, 2009

      • navap
        Really? So everything in the GS section is not portable?
      • 2009-02-11 04242, 2009

      • brianfreud
        kechete stored it in the session
      • 2009-02-11 04205, 2009

      • brianfreud
        switch browsers, or browse enough pages to move it out of session history, that setting was lost
      • 2009-02-11 04206, 2009

      • navap
        It would, I only suggested it there because you have other GS specific settings set on the page inside the GS suite.
      • 2009-02-11 04242, 2009

      • brianfreud
        well, I have "GC / ES in action" options in the ES, but ES/GC rendering preferences in user prefs
      • 2009-02-11 04245, 2009

      • navap
        What about something like, "Apply guess case after page loads", that rhould be a permanently stored setting shouldnt it?
      • 2009-02-11 04228, 2009

      • brianfreud
        not really
      • 2009-02-11 04252, 2009

      • brianfreud
        never quite understood why people would even use that option, actually :P
      • 2009-02-11 04209, 2009

      • navap
        On, me neither..
      • 2009-02-11 04212, 2009

      • navap
        oh*
      • 2009-02-11 04224, 2009

      • brianfreud
        I found that yes it saved a button click, but the time saved there was more than lost when it happened and borked a non-GC release
      • 2009-02-11 04248, 2009

      • navap
        But..if someone uses it, I don't think they would want to reset that everytime they log in.
      • 2009-02-11 04258, 2009

      • brianfreud
        ?
      • 2009-02-11 04216, 2009

      • brianfreud
        oh
      • 2009-02-11 04238, 2009

      • brianfreud
        no, stored in a cookie, they wouldn't have to change it any more than they currently do
      • 2009-02-11 04251, 2009

      • brianfreud
        same for current mode setting, etc
      • 2009-02-11 04236, 2009

      • navap
        Oh okay, is that how its currently done? Whats the expiry set to for the cookie?
      • 2009-02-11 04207, 2009

      • brianfreud
        not a clue - 2050?
      • 2009-02-11 04222, 2009

        What should the artist lock button do with no javascript support?
      • 2009-02-11 04237, 2009

      • navap
        And I know the Add Release wizard is broken..but I have a weird warning "This field does not take multiple values".
      • 2009-02-11 04223, 2009

      • navap
        Apparently, one can't add a release with two tracks of the same name.
      • 2009-02-11 04259, 2009

      • nikki
        o_O

      • brianfreud
        navap: there is no artist lock button w/o js. :)
      • 2009-02-11 04222, 2009

      • brianfreud
        just a change artist checkbox
      • 2009-02-11 04229, 2009

      • navap
        Is that whats "supposed" to happen ;)
      • 2009-02-11 04232, 2009

      • navap
        Oh
      • 2009-02-11 04249, 2009

      • navap
        And what does that checkbox do?
      • 2009-02-11 04225, 2009

      • navap
        Currently the hover text says "Tick this box to make this Artist editable."
      • 2009-02-11 04236, 2009

      • brianfreud
        same as the live site - when you submit the form, it brings you back to it but with a blank for artist
      • 2009-02-11 04214, 2009

      • navap
        Oh, I see, I've never done it on the current server
      • 2009-02-11 04257, 2009

      • brianfreud admits the page looks much more complete with the GC buttons back in :)
      • 2009-02-11 04212, 2009

      • navap
        On I was wrong about that track name thing, its even better..apparently an artist can only appear once per release :p
      • 2009-02-11 04240, 2009

        ?

        "This field does not take multiple values"
      • 2009-02-11 04259, 2009

      • brianfreud
        remember, the add release code is very unfinished
      • 2009-02-11 04217, 2009

      • navap
        Yes I know, I'm just having fun poking around
      • 2009-02-11 04254, 2009

      • navap
        haha "Yoda speak" and why not!? ;)
      • 2009-02-11 04215, 2009

      • navap
        Is i18n also going to make it possible to add "the" infront of a band? "View all releases by Foo Foo Heads." vs "View all releases by the Foo Foo Heads.". Or is that something that isn't seen as needed?
      • 2009-02-11 04249, 2009

      • brianfreud
        that's not an i18n thing
      • 2009-02-11 04226, 2009

      • navap
        Maybe not, but it becomes one when that phrase has to be translated.
      • 2009-02-11 04234, 2009

      • navap
        And when to add it.
      • 2009-02-11 04211, 2009

      • brianfreud
        yes, but when to, or not to, include the "the"... that's server code, not i18n
