Is there a way of changing the attributes (e.g. instrument) on multiple tracks at once. It´s a pain when you make a mistake and have to fix 40 of them!

reosarevok, or anybody --- the disambig here https://musicbrainz.org/recording/5f7031d4-6570... not necessary now?

Most the information is redundant, but it could still be helpful during searching.

s/Most/Most of/

Theoretically it's still the guideline

Although it​ might make sense to change it or to try and auto generate the info

hmmm I just wondered.... all the info exists as relationships....

seems a lot of duplicating work

the thing is that those rels aren't shown in inline search ,at all :/

CatQuest, oh well..... it just seemed odd to me when I saw it.... left it alone.

I'd like to add the missing releases to this once it merges, in case someone wants to vote ;) https://musicbrainz.org/edit/44551875 (it'll still need 2 days, but better than 7)

Don't seem to be any releases of Idomeneo with a male soprano in the role of Idamante. Shucks.

hey guys

allah is doing

music is doing brainz is doing

to accept music in to your life say that I bear witness that there is not deity worthy of worship except music and sound peace be upon everyone for all

you drunk? :D

CatCat, hmmmm

SothoTalKer: what day is it :P

saturday

and?

Good afternoon

I'm a bit rusty. I've got a re-release of an album, with exactly the same disc ids as the previous, and only a different backcover for an additional release date and a different barcode. This means i'd have to add a new release, basically recreating the previous completely. Is there a way I can just make a copy instead?

Forage: Yes, you need to add a new release, but you can reuse the tracklist and the release group from the previous one.

Basically, you go to the release group page and click on “Add a release” under “Editing” section on the right side.

Reusing tracklist will be proposed in the “Release Duplicates” tab of the release editor.

yvanzo: OK, too easy, cheers :-)

np :)

What is the recommended way to add proof nowadays. A photo of the back cover (i.e. not a perfect scan to be considered good cover art) Is something like http://tinypic.com/ considered good enough?

Forage: http://tinypic.com/...?

(needs an url)

No, the question was just about the upload location ;-)

it is the image that is important not loation.. i mran usually I use imgur, but tinypic seems fine?

also for proof is just fine, obcv

though we do hope you'd like to at some point upload all cover art to the coverartarchive

CatQuest: I'd love to, but that gets a bit tricky without a scanner ;-)

I'd much rather have a phone pic of a tracklist or performer list than nothing

CatQuest: :D

Hans-Martin: online release dates aren't always trustworthy, but if they have two different covers, yes, they should be different

ok, need to leave now, but will fix it later in the evening

Forage: indeed, but: it is actually possible (kepsin could possibly tell you, or link tothat article I keep forgetting about image picture thing)

although that was vinyl..

i say kepstin since I think he remembers the article, anyway

reosarevok: +1

reosarevok: :D

hmm, afraid I don't recall that.

but anyways, with even an "ok" phone camera, as long as you can get fairly even light with no glare, you can take pretty decent pictures of album art.
