hey, tracks lookup ok, but shouldn't the tagger link update the file?
2010-06-01 15200, 2010
navap
Clicking the tagger link only loads that release's information into Picard (or possibly any other compatible tagger).

Or maybe I misunderstood you..

You're talking about the green tagger links that show up on musicbrainz.org?
2010-06-01 15251, 2010
robb
hm, a restart fixes that
2010-06-01 15258, 2010

And you have Picard open before you click the link?

yes yes

i remember using musicbrains back when picard was the next generation tagger
2010-06-01 15226, 2010
navap
Well the next generation has arrived so we can't keep calling it "next generation" :) It should still be pretty much the same UI though as it was a few versions back.
well i found general faq's and such ok, but those specific instructions
2010-06-01 15229, 2010

Going to Help from within Picard should also direct you to that documentation page.

I went to a friend's house for fish tacos a week or so ago. They were delicious, but I couldn't smell anything but fried fish for a couple of days.
2010-06-01 15204, 2010

well, I like fish, and I had some mackerel to eat
2010-06-01 15209, 2010

I wish my university didn't charge extra for summer gym access.

it's cost me about 50 quid for 10 weeks
2010-06-01 15226, 2010

which is alright. it's not a brilliant gym, but all I need is plates, a squat rack, a bench and barbells
2010-06-01 15243, 2010

i sure would be tempted to pay extra for a place with some air conditioning though...
2010-06-01 15210, 2010

The summer here is around $30, I think. Which is better than any other gym I'd find, and it's well-equipped. But I'm poor.
2010-06-01 15222, 2010

And I don't think they'll let me pay it with financial aid.

sorry to disturb your talk but: is there any way, if an album has different ASINs in different countries, to choose a specific one for the cover art retrieval?

Doesn’t NGS do some stuff with associating things with actual releases (e.g. disc IDs and corresponding release events)?
2010-06-01 15250, 2010
hawke_
I would’ve thought that if it did that, it would also connect ASINs to those release events.
2010-06-01 15207, 2010
Mineo
well, that's unfortunate
2010-06-01 15226, 2010

I agree.
2010-06-01 15232, 2010

Speaking of NGS: On the NGS beta, how do you go about setting a release’s format?
2010-06-01 15208, 2010
navap
Since a release can now consist of several mediums you can't set a *release* format, only a medium format.
2010-06-01 15243, 2010
hawke_
Fair enough...where do you do that? I would expect it to be in the same place as packaging...
2010-06-01 15255, 2010
navap
The stuff in the sidebar is release specific information, it applies to the entire release - the format(s) do not. They're found on the tracklist tab of the release editor.
2010-06-01 15203, 2010

2010-06-01 15220, 2010

Also, I see that you can’t apparently change the release(?) type; the dropdown says album, and is disabled.
2010-06-01 15226, 2010
hawke_
Is there a way to do that?
2010-06-01 15251, 2010
navap
If you're editing a release then the release type is taken from the release group the release is in.
2010-06-01 15207, 2010
navap
A release doesn't have a "type" anymore, that's only at the release group level.
2010-06-01 15227, 2010
hawke_
Aha.
2010-06-01 15242, 2010
hawke_
Then why’s it displayed on the release editor. :-p
2010-06-01 15213, 2010
navap
Let me ask you this: If it wasn't displayed, wouldn't you have wondered where it was?
2010-06-01 15233, 2010
hawke_
Well, I would have looked for it somewhere else...
2010-06-01 15237, 2010
hawke_
or asked.
2010-06-01 15218, 2010
hawke_
But putting it on the release editor raises the question for all: “this is obviously where I’m supposed to be editing the type [since it has a widget there], now why is it disabled?”
2010-06-01 15236, 2010
hawke_
Instead of “where do I go to edit the album type?”
2010-06-01 15248, 2010
hawke_
Which at least gives me the idea that I need to search more.
2010-06-01 15254, 2010
navap
I think that question will be answered once we stick in the appropriate documentation in the right side of the first tab.
2010-06-01 15205, 2010
hawke_
Perhaps.
2010-06-01 15200, 2010
navap
It's a good observation though, maybe the type doesn't need to be shown at all in the release editor.
2010-06-01 15227, 2010
hawke_
How about the format selection being on the tracklist tab? Shouldn’t it and packaging go together?
2010-06-01 15252, 2010
navap
Although then the editor wouldn't be 100% consistent because the type needs to be asked when adding a new release outside of an existing release group.
2010-06-01 15222, 2010
navap
When you buy a two disc album, does each disc come in different packaging?
2010-06-01 15208, 2010
navap
Actually I'm not too sure how packaging will work with a release that has different medium formats.
2010-06-01 15222, 2010
navap
A CD+Vinyl release probably can't be classified as having just one type of packaging.
2010-06-01 15223, 2010
nikki
the packaging stuff is pretty basic anyway, it's not like you can say something came in a normal jewel case with a bonus disc in a slim jewel case in a cardboard thingy to keep the discs together
