        Hello everyone
      • 2014-05-24 14412, 2014

      • smabie
        I'm trying to create an application using libmusicbrainz5 and am having a little trouble
      • 2014-05-24 14430, 2014

      • smabie
      • 2014-05-24 14415, 2014

      • smabie
        Say I pass "The\ Shins" as argv[1]
      • 2014-05-24 14422, 2014

      • smabie
        printf("%d\n", mb5_release_list_size(rl)); prints 0
      • 2014-05-24 14434, 2014

      • smabie
        Why would this be?
      • 2014-05-24 14403, 2014

      • smabie
        Shouldn't it return the number of releases by The Shins?
      • 2014-05-24 14412, 2014

      • smabie
        Or am I missing something?

        smabie: I haven't used that library, but I'd think you need to pass the artist's ID, not name (since name's aren't unique). wouldn't you?
      • 2014-05-24 14442, 2014

      • smabie
        I am not passing the name, mb5_artist_get_releaselist(artist);

        artist is of type Md5Artist
      • 2014-05-24 14402, 2014

      • smabie
        that should be unique, no?
      • 2014-05-24 14421, 2014

      • smabie
        it's really just a void * pointer typecasted, the C interface is pretty lazy..

        err typedef
      • 2014-05-24 14421, 2014

      • smabie
        I'm just printing the name out, with mb5_artist_get_name(artist, name, sizeof(name)); printf("artist is '%s'\n", name);

        Since we're talking libmusicbrainz5, I'm guessing the former.

        jesus2099: There's no limit for the amount of public (= standard) repositories per-user on GitHub. So you could have a repository for each of your scripts, if you wanted to. It's probably easier to manage them in a single one though.

        Freso: git mv is just a shorthand for mv, add, rm. The actual detection happens afterwards

        Detection doesn't kick in until diff-time, IIRC.
      • 2014-05-24 14449, 2014

      • Freso
        (And you can modify diff params to consider more/less things as moved files.)

        that is from the guy that had the libmusicbrainz question earlier today. So maybe that tool might even get MB support

        I need to clean up some relationships, and it'll be easier once the two have been merged, so I won't have to clean it from both releases.

        what artist should I put for a podcast? the artist tag is the same as the site that publishes it
      • 2014-05-24 14438, 2014

      • finalsummer
        however, on the site it self it's posted by an certain author
      • 2014-05-24 14403, 2014

      • CallerNo6
        "posted by" doesn't sound like an artist credit to me. it just sounds like the name of the person who wrote the blog post announcing the podcast?
      • 2014-05-24 14410, 2014

      • finalsummer
        yes

        it does make sense though since his other post is about this genre of music
      • 2014-05-24 14449, 2014

        it's not a talk show-ish podcast, but a mix type

        back when i had my turntables i've posted many trance and hip-hop mixes online, but i wouldn't dare add them to the db
      • 2014-05-24 14458, 2014

      • CallerNo6
        I guess I'd do ReleaseArtist [Tiny Mix Tapes] / [Kmmy Gbblr] and TrackArtist a big long artist credit with all the original artists joined by "/"?
      • 2014-05-24 14415, 2014

      • CallerNo6
        that's a wild guess
      • 2014-05-24 14437, 2014

      • drsaunders
        no way to all the artists with a / split
      • 2014-05-24 14447, 2014

      • finalsummer
        I went this way because the other mixes are this way
      • 2014-05-24 14450, 2014

      • drsaunders
        i would definitely "fix" anything like that to VA
      • 2014-05-24 14405, 2014

      • finalsummer
        there is a relationship for tracks that were included in a mix
      • 2014-05-24 14409, 2014

      • CallerNo6 defers to drsaunders's wisdom in the matter
      • 2014-05-24 14445, 2014

      • drsaunders
        i don't mind the way you added the release probably the best with ARs to the tracks contained.. i just personally don't like those for the database
      • 2014-05-24 14459, 2014

        it's "produced:" enough that I wouldn't know how to identify the correct recordings

        i could also bitch that its the transformer is "Jazz" and the music isn't jazz......
