        Hm... Release date/country should be capable of multiple entries, just like label and catalog number. The only difference between these two releases is release date and country... even the barcode is the same: http://musicbrainz.org/release/5c2382f4-8e72-3139… and http://musicbrainz.org/release/8dd8c6f8-6ff3-3f89…

        I have a release that came with a bonus DVD. All instances of this release, however, are entered into MusicBrainz as though the bonus disc is a music CD. It even has a disc ID, so it's not like I can change the medium type. I've verified that the barcode matches, as does the tracklisting... Any ideas? I doubt the same album was released twice under the same barcode, one with a bonus CD and one with a bonus DVD.

        Important question here.. how would you add a limited edition release that had 4 additional mp3's on it when you used it in a pc?

        kyomi: probably add the mp3 tracks as a second medium, with type "digital media"

        I think it would be nice if Picard's "Clear existing tags" option could be configured so it would not touch the genre field. I'm very particular about how my music is classified...

        Failing that, Genre should be a field that shows up on the bottom of the Picard interface. Underneath Track, Length, Date, Lookup, perhaps...?

        What determines when a PUID can be submitted? I just scanned tracks for a whole new album and associated them with tracks for the album in Picard. I'm not given the option to submit the PUIDs.
      • 2011-08-02 21442, 2011

      • cparker
        Does scanning not generate a PUID?
      • 2011-08-02 21450, 2011

      • hrglgrmpf
        cparker: if the PUID is already in MB, then you of course can't submit it again
      • 2011-08-02 21453, 2011

      • ianmcorvidae
        picard has to a.) find PUIDs (it can't generate them, only find them if it's been generated before) and b.) they have to not be on MB
      • 2011-08-02 21400, 2011

      • luks
        if you scan the track, MusicDNS returns a PUID, the PUID is not found in MB, you match it to a release

        you can run genpuid on them
      • 2011-08-02 21437, 2011

      • ianmcorvidae
        what luks said, PUIDs are going away pretty soon; if you really care get musicip mixer or genpuid
      • 2011-08-02 21446, 2011

        but the it might be that the musicdns servers are just currently broken
      • 2011-08-02 21448, 2011
