drsaunde: So they get changed once the voting on the tracks finishes?

drsaunde
depends...if the recording has only one track...the length will be that...if there's more than one track than the recording length will be the median of the track lenghts

What exactly is the batch-add function? Is that the standard "Add relationship" function from the Edit Relationships screen?
hibiscuskazeneko: nikki's bot has used "$artistname at $locationname" when converting the relationships. That seems a sane default.
2014-12-01 33505, 2014

And just make up a tag. It's not like the tags are anything "official" anyway.
2014-12-01 33507, 2014
hibiscuskazeneko
That's what I ended up doing.
2014-12-01 33528, 2014
Freso
And mention it in the annotation.
2014-12-01 33548, 2014

And what batch add function? Release relationship editor?

hibiscuskazeneko: so is your subseries one, but I found the code to restrict what entities are linked to a series blocks it :/ Hopefully that can be fixed soonish at least in beta :)
2014-12-01 33538, 2014
hibiscuskazeneko
OK. Did you see the other ticket I made?
2014-12-01 33532, 2014
hibiscuskazeneko
Freso: I was referring to the release relationship editor. Nikki was asking me some questions on an old ticket and I was confused by a term.
hibiscuskazeneko: The "batch add" function in the rel rel editor works just like added a single relationship but can do it to multiple recordings or works at a time.

You need to select the recordings first

It said "TODO: add pictures" on the top for a while, I guess eventually someone gave up on that ever happening :p

I mean, it's been waiting for those for two years, right - a month or two won't change much

is that event/sub-event thing for festivals subject for further change or does it stay that way? how do we handle festivals with multiple stages? one sub-event per stage and day?
2014-12-01 33551, 2014
Freso
I think I possibly asked this before, but is there a document with an up-to-date guideline for how to handle podcasts?
2014-12-01 33557, 2014
Freso
yeeeargh: Whatever makes sense. :)
2014-12-01 33532, 2014
Freso
yeeeargh: If there's a concert at 13:00 on a given stage and then nothing until 22:00, it might make more sense to do two events for that.
2014-12-01 33534, 2014
yeeeargh
i'm deciding if i wait a few more days/weeks before i redo the festivals i already entered.
2014-12-01 33557, 2014
reosarevok
yeeeargh: Multiple stages is unclear at the moment. I'd just do one event per day, for standard festivals
2014-12-01 33505, 2014
yeeeargh
just in case it would change again... should have waited a few days in the first place :D
2014-12-01 33507, 2014
reosarevok
Because mostly you're not expected to attend one stage
2014-12-01 33523, 2014
reosarevok
(but to move between them for whatever you want to see)
2014-12-01 33537, 2014
reosarevok
But if most people think event-per-stage is better I'm open to that too
2014-12-01 33503, 2014
reosarevok
Of course for the case of "stages" being different clubs around town or something then yeah, that'd be different events :)
2014-12-01 33550, 2014
yeeeargh
one point for having stages seperated: you would get proper time tables
2014-12-01 33549, 2014
reosarevok
Yeah, that's the main positive of it
2014-12-01 33558, 2014
reosarevok
If you want to start a discussion about it on the list later tonight/tomorrow (so, after part-of is officially announced) go for it
2014-12-01 33510, 2014
reosarevok
If you're not there I guess I will eventually do it myself, but maybe not that soon :)
well, you can add proper data tracks to the tracklist since the last update – you might have heard about that feature ;P – and my take on it would have been to add mp3s or videos of enhanced cd it. i guess this is actually why it was added. but how should we handle other content like games, photos or whatever else there could be?
2014-12-01 33558, 2014
yeeeargh
and "A common example of trailing data track is found on CDs that include videos. As said before, these should not be entered into MusicBrainz." of that style guide contradicts this
2014-12-01 33509, 2014
yeeeargh
for instance

I have an album, 2cd, 1 video dvd (a concert) and a data dvd with tutorials and ableton live projects for 3 of the songs, what do i do with the last dvd now?
2014-12-01 33548, 2014
Freso
yeeeargh: That is an example, not a guideline.
2014-12-01 33511, 2014
Freso
yeeeargh: The guideline says otherwise than the example, the example just hasn't been updated.
2014-12-01 33505, 2014
yeeeargh
oh, okay. how about other content then audio/video? probalby just note things like that on the release annotation. or should we mark them in any way in the tracklist too?
" an audio CD contains a data track at the end which is not visible in an audio CD player, it should not be included in the main part of the tracklist."
2014-12-01 33558, 2014
Freso
+If
2014-12-01 33529, 2014
Freso
" the data track contains audio or video tracks, those tracks should be entered in the data tracks section of the tracklist"
2014-12-01 33552, 2014
Freso
Why does it keep not copying over the "If"? Darn it.
2014-12-01 33500, 2014
Freso
Anyway.
2014-12-01 33536, 2014
Freso
Not including the data track is the default. If the data track happens to have AV content, then include that.
2014-12-01 33516, 2014

yeeeargh: oops, good catch

I'm working on adding the podcast "Bag Fjendens Linjer" to MusicBrainz. It is made and hosted by two guys from the Danish rap scene. Would it would be completely off to create an "Artist" for "Bag Fjendens Linjer" with these two guys as members, which the podcasts can then be attributed to?
