that's silly

hah

You haven't seen the brony room yet :p

No, but we seem to be in the ballroom of the Overlook Hotel.

hah

At least we all look like bears with no creepy aristocratic guys around

Words to live by.

cool down pink in prisons http://www.2lounge.ch/wp-content/uploads/2010/0...

lol

Also, lol at Facebook having pages for prisons

were here

As visitors or interns, one can wonder

But that's why I'm [somebody]#6. It's prisons all the way down.

Shouldn't be that hard :p

anyone know how the CAA json data gets updated?

I'm trying to figure why http://musicbrainz.org/release/72cf3c87-d97d-49... can show 9, but http://ia601209.s3dns.us.archive.org/mbid-72cf3... only return 2

CallerNo6, I am number 2

brianfreud: I'm going to assume that they are updated at the top of the hour

cause it's updated now

you also might also be pulling a cached copy

I don't know. The json literally just updated a moment ago, but the images went in several hours ago

*shrug*

dunno

I'm using the same exact process as the MB edit pages; just was afraid there for a few that I still was missing something to trigger the index.json update

brianfreud: leo mckern, I hope. That guy rocked.

of course! :D

though someday, I do need to watch the rest of the new ones. I only ever saw the first ep

new ones? oh my. i think i've been under a rock again.

yeah, they remade it as a miniseries a few years ago

Anyone care to comment on http://musicbrainz.org/edit/18720186 ?

guidelines need updating, of course

I don't think they've been touched since the last schema change that added a lot of these things

hmm. can we set an alias as 'primary' without a locale set?

no, it's "primary for locale"

unless it's possible to set it as primary for the null locale, but I don't think so

bah, I'm getting that "Couldn't file module or a distribtion ExtUtils::MakeMaker (6.59)" error in carton

and also on Carp (1.22)

Is there a (good) way to get a count of the number of times a given AC has been used?

good/easy, that is

probably depends if you have a database

I have *a* database. :-p

you know what I meant :P

I very much doubt there's anything in the web interface for something like that though

as for how easy/hard the SQL query is, it's fairly straightforward as they go I guess

I did know what you mean. But no, I don’t have enough interest to bother installing a copy of the MB database to look it up.

figured

hi, is there an easy way to copy a release to start a new version?

I've got a release that's a 99% match to an existing release (mine just has one track less in fact)

m8ram, why yes there is! :)

Go to the right release group

great!

And press Add Release on the sidebar

You'll need to enter the info in the first page

But after that, the "Release Duplicates" tab should give you the other one as an option

Just select it and remove the extra track in the tracklist :)

wonderful, I'll give that a try

then I can add the CD - what's it called - signature later and it will fill in the track lengths right?

Yeah, disc ID

Although if the one you're using as a base has lengths, it should already reuse those too

(but anyway, do add the disc ID :) )

it doesn't have track lengths, and yes disc Id is what I meant , thanks

Hi

There is a release in the musicbrainz database which has no disc ID

Plenty of them, actually! :)

Hi yes your right :)

i own this cd so i added it with picard

So far, so good

oke so i did this right

Well, if the CD is the same, yes

That's how we do it :)

as far as i know it's the same

when will these changes be added?

The disc ID gets added automatically

immediately?

Other changes need voting, so it depends

ah alright

But yeah, discIDs are not voted on

Since it's hard to

"Hi! This series of numbers belongs here!"

reosarevok: I'm trying to add the disc ID to the release I just copied, but I can't seem to select the release

like Marcel I'm using picard (old version) 0.12.1

MarcelvanLeeuwen, Only way of making sure is having the CD too, and in that case the other user could have added it himself :)

m8ram: you really shouldn't be using such an old version :)

But apart from that

I enter the disc, do manual lookup, enter the release title and I'm presented with the exsitng release and the release I just added

Yep

So what happens :)

but the radio buttons are disabled

huh

Can you give me a link?

and yes, I need to upgrade this system

sure

http://musicbrainz.org/release/ed1dcc8c-3727-41... is the release I added

Oh, I meant the one you get when adding the discID

http://musicbrainz.org/cdtoc/attach?toc=1+16+30... is the list where I can select the releases

Yes

That :)

oops

Now I see the issue :)

You added it as a digital media release

that's a start :)

Not a CD

hmmm

(it also loaded this from the other release I guess)

where did I go wrong, didn't see that as an option

Format, in the tracklist tab

can I edit that?

I'll quickly fix it

ah thx

In any case, yes, you could edit it

It's just that if I do it it's faster :)

ok,
