        I mean, in a world of things that are silly, this is still pretty silly.

        brianfreud: I'm going to assume that they are updated at the top of the hour
      • 2012-08-18 23128, 2012

      • demosdemon
        cause it's updated now
      • 2012-08-18 23146, 2012

      • demosdemon
        you also might also be pulling a cached copy
      • 2012-08-18 23102, 2012

      • brianfreud
        I don't know. The json literally just updated a moment ago, but the images went in several hours ago
      • 2012-08-18 23103, 2012

      • brianfreud
        *shrug*

        dunno

      • brianfreud
        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
      • 2012-08-18 23152, 2012

        of course! :D

      • brianfreud
        though someday, I do need to watch the rest of the new ones. I only ever saw the first ep
      • 2012-08-18 23153, 2012

      • CallerNo6
        new ones? oh my. i think i've been under a rock again.

      • 2012-08-18 23106, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        guidelines need updating, of course
      • 2012-08-18 23121, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        I don't think they've been touched since the last schema change that added a lot of these things
      • 2012-08-18 23132, 2012

      • kepstin
        hmm. can we set an alias as 'primary' without a locale set?
      • 2012-08-18 23149, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        no, it's "primary for locale"
      • 2012-08-18 23131, 2012

      • danmichel joined the channel
      • 2012-08-18 23148, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        unless it's possible to set it as primary for the null locale, but I don't think so
      • 2012-08-18 23156, 2012

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

        Is there a (good) way to get a count of the number of times a given AC has been used?
      • 2012-08-18 23131, 2012

      • hawke_
        good/easy, that is
      • 2012-08-18 23140, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        probably depends if you have a database
      • 2012-08-18 23119, 2012

      • hawke_
        I have *a* database. :-p
      • 2012-08-18 23128, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        you know what I meant :P
      • 2012-08-18 23150, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        I very much doubt there's anything in the web interface for something like that though
      • 2012-08-18 23156, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        as for how easy/hard the SQL query is, it's fairly straightforward as they go I guess
      • 2012-08-18 23150, 2012

      • hawke_
        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.

        hi, is there an easy way to copy a release to start a new version?
      • 2012-08-18 23126, 2012

      • m8ram
        I've got a release that's a 99% match to an existing release (mine just has one track less in fact)
      • 2012-08-18 23133, 2012

      • reosarevok
        m8ram, why yes there is! :)
      • 2012-08-18 23141, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Go to the right release group
      • 2012-08-18 23148, 2012

      • m8ram
        great!
      • 2012-08-18 23150, 2012

      • reosarevok
        And press Add Release on the sidebar
      • 2012-08-18 23158, 2012

      • reosarevok
        You'll need to enter the info in the first page
      • 2012-08-18 23112, 2012

      • reosarevok
        But after that, the "Release Duplicates" tab should give you the other one as an option
      • 2012-08-18 23129, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Just select it and remove the extra track in the tracklist :)
      • 2012-08-18 23142, 2012

      • m8ram
        wonderful, I'll give that a try
      • 2012-08-18 23110, 2012

      • m8ram
        then I can add the CD - what's it called - signature later and it will fill in the track lengths right?
      • 2012-08-18 23127, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, disc ID
      • 2012-08-18 23145, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Although if the one you're using as a base has lengths, it should already reuse those too
      • 2012-08-18 23100, 2012

      • reosarevok
        (but anyway, do add the disc ID :) )
      • 2012-08-18 23112, 2012

      • m8ram
        it doesn't have track lengths, and yes disc Id is what I meant , thanks

        Hi
      • 2012-08-18 23103, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        There is a release in the musicbrainz database which has no disc ID
      • 2012-08-18 23114, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Plenty of them, actually! :)
      • 2012-08-18 23126, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        Hi yes your right :)
      • 2012-08-18 23146, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        i own this cd so i added it with picard
      • 2012-08-18 23105, 2012

      • reosarevok
        So far, so good
      • 2012-08-18 23116, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        oke so i did this right
      • 2012-08-18 23129, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Well, if the CD is the same, yes
      • 2012-08-18 23133, 2012

      • reosarevok
        That's how we do it :)
      • 2012-08-18 23149, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        as far as i know it's the same
      • 2012-08-18 23112, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        when will these changes be added?
      • 2012-08-18 23119, 2012

      • reosarevok
        The disc ID gets added automatically
      • 2012-08-18 23127, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        immediately?
      • 2012-08-18 23128, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Other changes need voting, so it depends
      • 2012-08-18 23138, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        ah alright
      • 2012-08-18 23151, 2012

      • reosarevok
        But yeah, discIDs are not voted on
      • 2012-08-18 23155, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Since it's hard to
      • 2012-08-18 23111, 2012

      • reosarevok
        "Hi! This series of numbers belongs here!"
      • 2012-08-18 23113, 2012

      • m8ram
        reosarevok: I'm trying to add the disc ID to the release I just copied, but I can't seem to select the release
      • 2012-08-18 23132, 2012

      • m8ram
        like Marcel I'm using picard (old version) 0.12.1
      • 2012-08-18 23134, 2012

      • reosarevok
        MarcelvanLeeuwen, Only way of making sure is having the CD too, and in that case the other user could have added it himself :)
      • 2012-08-18 23153, 2012

      • reosarevok
        m8ram: you really shouldn't be using such an old version :)
      • 2012-08-18 23157, 2012

      • reosarevok
        But apart from that
      • 2012-08-18 23158, 2012

      • m8ram
        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
      • 2012-08-18 23103, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Yep
      • 2012-08-18 23107, 2012

      • reosarevok
        So what happens :)
      • 2012-08-18 23117, 2012

        but the radio buttons are disabled

        huh
      • 2012-08-18 23130, 2012

      • 2012-08-18 23134, 2012

      • 2012-08-18 23138, 2012

      • reosarevok
        You added it as a digital media release
      • 2012-08-18 23139, 2012

      • m8ram
        that's a start :)
      • 2012-08-18 23140, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Not a CD
