How does one indicate a mastering by an organization rather than an individual? This Louis Armstrong anthology was remastered by CEDAR (https://musicbrainz.org/label/d2b44776-60d7-4dd...) which is a label in MBz.

crism: I guess you make a STYLE-ticket in jira to suggest adding this (label-release/recording mastering rel)

and reo will deal with it soonish

Hey everyone. I'm trying to add a release (https://www.discogs.com/Various-Leopoldina-Apre...) but I'm having doubts regarding one thing: the second disc was recorded at local schools, which are the artists in the back of the case. Should I add each school as an artist on Musicbrainz (like on Discogs)?

I don't see why not to be honest, better than Various Atists as track/recording artist, or using unknown

Makes sense. Thanks!

https://i.imgur.com/tTiIIJs.png - am I somehow missing a Picard setting that is making it truncate filenames this short?

IIRC it truncates to some limit that matches some Windows thing? But zas or outsidecontext would know better

i looked at https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/PICARD-11... but that suggests any truncation would be higher than 90 characters

PICARD-110: Incorrect limitations on pathname length

fwiw my filename config https://wiki.thingsandstuff.org/Tagging_script#...

milkii: on windows the limit for the entire path, including drive name, is 259 characters

if you are on other platforms and have win compatibility enabled this also applies

but relative to the mount point in this case

outsidecontext: tis ext4. formerly this drive was over nfs, but now it's directly connected to my laptop via usb

milkii: is win compatibility enabled in options or not?

aah, yes, misread before, so this is a full path length limit. i guess i'll just turn off and deal with the problem that will arise when I'm transferring to a fat32 drive when that happens. thanks :)

for cpmpleteness: otherwise if you are neither on windows nor have windows compatibility enabled there is no overall path name limit, but Picard will query the file system for the maximum length of an individal directory or file name

using Python's os.statvfs
