adamgolding3: I wouldn't mind a dump as stubs, but I find their data so often needs cleanup to meet our guidelines, the only time a mass import would save would be the initial add time - you'd still have all the time spent cleaning up the data, but now as part of the live db.

luks, why does release_label have a position column? Does the ordering of labels really matter?

aCiD2: it probably doesn't matter much, but I wanted to have a stable ordering
2009-09-01 24409, 2009
aCiD2
I think we could get that by ordering on label name and catalog number though
2009-09-01 24432, 2009
aCiD2
It just makes the edit types a bit needlessly complicated, as they have to do the same position shuffling as the tracklist
2009-09-01 24414, 2009
aCiD2
do you mind if I take the position column out?
2009-09-01 24445, 2009

I'd prefer to keep it personally

can you check with somebody else?

hey :)
2009-09-01 24445, 2009
aCiD2
I mean, with ordering on the selection, you'll still get a fairly deterministic output with groupings on the label and an order on the catalog numbers
2009-09-01 24402, 2009
luks
btw, I intended release label changes to be a part of EDIT_RELEASE_EDIT
2009-09-01 24408, 2009
luks
not separate edits
2009-09-01 24417, 2009
aCiD2
I know, but I don't like that
2009-09-01 24432, 2009
aCiD2
what if someone adds a release label that is correct, but edits a release label incorrectly at the same time
2009-09-01 24441, 2009
luks
have to go for a moment, bbl
2009-09-01 24443, 2009
aCiD2
this is why I wanted to be as atomic as we can, and group edits together somehow
2009-09-01 24446, 2009
aCiD2
ok
2009-09-01 24413, 2009
aCiD2
nikki: we were discussing how much control we need over the ordering of release labels
2009-09-01 24424, 2009
aCiD2
(label, catalog number pairs on the release page)
2009-09-01 24438, 2009
aCiD2
at the moment you can control the order exactly, but I think that's needlessly complicated
2009-09-01 24421, 2009
nikki
hmm...
2009-09-01 24445, 2009
nikki
off the top of my head, it seems needlessly complicated to me too, I can't really think of anything where we would need a specific order for them
2009-09-01 24402, 2009
aCiD2
I figured ordering based on label name and the catalog number should be enough
2009-09-01 24407, 2009
nikki
the only possible use case I can think of is when there's the original label and the distributing label and we want to track that, but if we want to store that info I'd prefer being able to say which is which, rather than having guidelines saying "the first label is the original, the second is the distributing one"
2009-09-01 24425, 2009
aCiD2 nods
2009-09-01 24409, 2009
nikki
I'd rather we used annotations than create more style guidelines to confuse people with :P
2009-09-01 24434, 2009
navap
Or have a sort of release specific label comment?
2009-09-01 24450, 2009
nikki
release specific label comment?
2009-09-01 24452, 2009
navap
Something to say which label is which.
2009-09-01 24416, 2009
nikki
well the annotations will be specific to the release
2009-09-01 24441, 2009
navap
Yeah but I don't like stuffing everything hap-hazard into the annotations.
2009-09-01 24416, 2009
nikki
well people can either submit a patch or submit some chocolate if they want proper support :P
2009-09-01 24421, 2009
navap
:p
2009-09-01 24437, 2009
nikki
but like I said, I'd prefer using annotations over ordering them in a specific way
2009-09-01 24450, 2009
navap
That I also agree with.
2009-09-01 24452, 2009
nikki
since ordering isn't really very intuitive

So on to more important news, Opera 10 is out! :)

so I saw
2009-09-01 24404, 2009

wonder if they've fixed the display bugs I saw in the rc a few days ago

hehe, I saw that too, I'm still using chrome though

but I found some other theme where the tab bar is acceptable, so maybe I'll keep using that and fiiiinally upgrade. the dialogs in the theme are naff, but it's not like I see them very often :P
2009-09-01 24412, 2009

Yeah once you have it set up the way you want, you don't really need to look at the options again.

I wish yoyu could hide the File, Edit menu as well. I never use it anymore.

The new search server doesn't like querying for the track: ●, is that to be expected? The current search server doesn't return anything for it either.
2009-09-01 24426, 2009
nikki
probably, it mostly just tries to match the current server

is there any way to search tracks i have loaded into picard?
2009-09-01 24432, 2009
warp
search for the tracks on the website? use one of the lookup buttons.
2009-09-01 24407, 2009
warp
(the one in the toolbar does a lookup within picard, the one on the bottom right when you have a track selected takes you to the website)

wait the toolbar does?

I don't think picard has such a search option, but it wouldn't be something I would use, so perhaps it's hidden somewhere where I never look :)

don't you press the 'lookup' button at the bottom?
