      • 2012-03-03 06354, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        I have a question about adding an instrumental release of a previously existing (vocal) release
      • 2012-03-03 06321, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        is it considered bad form to copy the previous release, and just append an (instrumental) to everything?
      • 2012-03-03 06326, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        or is that exactly what I should do?
      • 2012-03-03 06354, 2012

      • reosarevok
        huh
      • 2012-03-03 06359, 2012

      • reosarevok
        As long as you change the recordings...
      • 2012-03-03 06357, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        well
      • 2012-03-03 06301, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        I'd be making new recordings
      • 2012-03-03 06313, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        I'll search first, but I'm sure I'll be making new recordings
      • 2012-03-03 06327, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        oh, I see what you mean

      • VxJasonxV
        I wasn't so much concerned about "copying the previous release" as much as I was the: "Title (instrumental)" "Title 2 (instrumental)"
      • 2012-03-03 06356, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, if you load the original release it will come with the recordings by default
      • 2012-03-03 06303, 2012

      • reosarevok
        About the instrumental, is that on the cover?
      • 2012-03-03 06311, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        well
      • 2012-03-03 06319, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        I would love to answer that if I could actually find the release.
      • 2012-03-03 06329, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        and not just a bunch of torrent links :/.
      • 2012-03-03 06329, 2012

      • reosarevok
        I mean, if it is called "Whatever: The Instrumentals", it might not make sense to add it to every track too
      • 2012-03-03 06332, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        and karaoke links.
      • 2012-03-03 06354, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        for all I know this is an unbranded unstyled promo release.
      • 2012-03-03 06323, 2012

      • reosarevok
        As long as you know it *is* a release...
      • 2012-03-03 06328, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        :/
      • 2012-03-03 06346, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        well, I have it. it's not fake
      • 2012-03-03 06310, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, I guess in the worst case it is a bootleg
      • 2012-03-03 06320, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        would still be nice to find something about it
      • 2012-03-03 06327, 2012

      • reosarevok
        So it is probably OK to add it (just leave the status unset maybe)
      • 2012-03-03 06347, 2012

      • reosarevok
        And then yeah, I guess adding (instrumental) won't hurt
      • 2012-03-03 06303, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        I think I would rather add it to the release title, and not muck up the track titles with it
      • 2012-03-03 06311, 2012

      • reosarevok
        You might want to set it to low quality after adding, though, for marking it as dubious info
      • 2012-03-03 06318, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Oh, that also sounds OK
      • 2012-03-03 06322, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        can you do that on a release level? I've only ever seen it on artists.
      • 2012-03-03 06338, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Actually, there's no quality on artists anymore in NGS, only on releases :)
      • 2012-03-03 06323, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        huh
      • 2012-03-03 06330, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        didn't even notice
      • 2012-03-03 06324, 2012

      • reosarevok
        I don't know what the reason for the change was but as I had seen more people using it wrong than right for artists I guess I won't care :p
      • 2012-03-03 06311, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        you know what else really hurts?
      • 2012-03-03 06316, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
      • 2012-03-03 06328, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        My release varies by *1* track.
      • 2012-03-03 06333, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        I have an instrumental that doesn't.
      • 2012-03-03 06335, 2012

      • reosarevok
        heh
      • 2012-03-03 06346, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Then I guess you can follow that for the rest of the titles at least
      • 2012-03-03 06322, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Oh, wait, that's not the same as before, or is it? :)
      • 2012-03-03 06341, 2012

      • VxJasonxV
        not the same as before
      • 2012-03-03 06347, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Ok

      • 2012-03-03 06317, 2012

      • reosarevok_
        No, I have this shop which only stores EANs as... the URL for the cover image
      • 2012-03-03 06334, 2012

      • reosarevok_
        But I'm not sure if they're always using the actual EAN for that
      • 2012-03-03 06345, 2012

      • reosarevok_
        So I only add them if I can find them confirmed somewhere else

      • reosarevok is hoping it does interest somebody so he can avoid adding it himself :)

      • jacobbrett
        reosarevok, I was considering adding it months ago..the tab is still sitting in a Firefox container :P
      • 2012-03-03 06354, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Months ago? It says "released 27 February 2012"...

      • jacobbrett
        Mineo: Could is have anything to do with that bonus track which didn't have an existing recording? (perhaps the newly created recording messed things up?)
      • 2012-03-03 06352, 2012

      • Mineo
        jacobbrett: I'm pretty sure that's not the cause - the add medium edit was closed one day before 16605713 was opened

      • 2012-03-03 06300, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        is it already possible to add composer information and a other stuff to a work?
      • 2012-03-03 06336, 2012

      • reosarevok
        It is possible, yes - it's just not possible to add it all at once from the release page, only from the work page
      • 2012-03-03 06338, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        asked it a while ago but then it was difficult to do
      • 2012-03-03 06353, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Oh, yeah
      • 2012-03-03 06356, 2012

        There is http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/121723 but I think there was that already last time you asked?

      • 2012-03-03 06345, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        owh
      • 2012-03-03 06313, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        yes there was something with a script
      • 2012-03-03 06332, 2012

      • MarcelvanLeeuwen
        you have to use it with chrome
      • 2012-03-03 06345, 2012

      • 2012-03-03 06351, 2012

      • reosarevok

        I hate regex's - select regexp_replace( '/Root/Subdir/Subdir.1/File.ext', '.*\/', '' ); returns the file name, how can I get the path without the filename?

        hm, no

      • 2012-03-03 06301, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        that should also work, yes

        I get the trailing / but that may be a good thing

      • ianmcorvidae
        if you do replace with mine sans the \/ at the beginning you'll get the /

        Stiil getting the hang of postgres. Been using MySQL for years, but it makes sense to integrate my db with the MB one

        hi, what AR do you think I should use for "rapping on guitar" ? ^^

        depends on what thye mean, I'd probably just say played guitar, if that's what they mean by "rapping" - but if they mean something like "vocal via guitar" - then I ahve no clue how they would have done that
