i see coment as "versioning info palce" basically
2011-08-16 22848, 2011
luks
but generally you can have info like that in the title, just properly normalized
2011-08-16 22850, 2011
CatCat
and if limited is a version info (sometihng i think it is) then yea
2011-08-16 22807, 2011

but the track titles..

i don't know. i mean most release that have hme have "soem font type"tracktitle"someother font type" bonus track and i'd therfor put it in some track title (bonus track)
2011-08-16 22842, 2011
reosarevok
Oh, ok
2011-08-16 22846, 2011
CatCat
but if it was like "foobar -BONUS TITLE-" then...
2011-08-16 22813, 2011
reosarevok finds "bonus track" a stupid thing to add, honestly
2011-08-16 22821, 2011
CatCat
I'd put it in as "foobar -BONUS TITLE-" actually
2011-08-16 22827, 2011
reosarevok
I've ever seen albums with "bonus title" with only one release
2011-08-16 22829, 2011
CatCat
yes me too but alas
2011-08-16 22830, 2011
luks
it's extra title information, we have a style guideline for that
Ok! Could people try the "split into separate artists" stuff on http://test.musicbrainz.org. This now: only splits artist credits with a matching artist name, inserts an "edit artist credit" edit type, removes collaboration relationships, and doesn't let you enter it if there are other relationships present.
2011-08-16 22846, 2011
ocharles
the existing edits are broken though, you probably want to avoid viewing them :)
2011-08-16 22838, 2011
ocharles
the extended artist credit editing still needs to be done, but I thought now seemed like a good time to test
2011-08-16 22850, 2011
nikki
ocharles: it should check the artist actually has artist credits to edit
I'm sure you'll get bug reports if it doesn't get fixed, people don't expect the site to let them enter edits that do nothing
2011-08-16 22808, 2011
ocharles
hmm, will look into that after lunch then
2011-08-16 22847, 2011
nikki
(and tbh I wouldn't be surprised if someone came along and tried to make a collaboration artist go away by splitting it :P)
2011-08-16 22800, 2011

even if it only has relationships

NOTE: There are no recording, release groups, releases or tracks credited to only {name}. If you are trying to remove {name}, please instead remove all existing relationships.

"...please instead remove all existing relationships, which will allow ModBot to automatically remove this artist in the future."
2011-08-16 22833, 2011

maybe, 'in the next few days' instead?
2011-08-16 22840, 2011
Tykling
if you are changing things anyway, putting "instead" after "relationships" sounds better IMO
2011-08-16 22849, 2011

hello
2011-08-16 22826, 2011

could some tell me what the gold discs and silver discs mean?
2011-08-16 22843, 2011
kepstin-laptop
JDD: in the picard tagger program?
2011-08-16 22850, 2011
JDD
ajep
2011-08-16 22854, 2011
JDD
yes*
2011-08-16 22803, 2011
kepstin-laptop
a gold disc means that all of the tracks in the release have been matched. A silver disc means that some tracks are missing.
2011-08-16 22814, 2011
kepstin-laptop
(silver can also mean that some tracks are duplicated)
2011-08-16 22819, 2011
kepstin-laptop
that's it :)
2011-08-16 22830, 2011

2011-08-16 22844, 2011
JDD
can i just delete the 5 tags on the right side of the screen?
2011-08-16 22837, 2011
kepstin-laptop
you're supposed to drag each file to the correct track; sometimes they get mismatched.
2011-08-16 22852, 2011
JDD
ok
2011-08-16 22804, 2011
JDD
i'm scanning now btw
2011-08-16 22808, 2011
JDD
i've got unmatched files...
2011-08-16 22821, 2011
JDD
am i deleting the double tags?
2011-08-16 22827, 2011
kepstin-laptop
the scanning is only approximate - it tries to match the track, but sometimes it can't figure out which release it was supposed to be from. If it found the wrong release, you can use the search box in the corner to find the correct release, then click the green 'tagger' button on the website to load it.
2011-08-16 22843, 2011
JDD
cool
2011-08-16 22816, 2011
JDD
so if i delete 4 of the 5 steve reich 5cd boxes and tagg it fron the site it will be ok?
2011-08-16 22824, 2011
JDD
sorry about my noob questions
2011-08-16 22847, 2011
kepstin-laptop
JDD: you should drag the tracks from the wrong one to the correct one first.
2011-08-16 22855, 2011
JDD
ok
2011-08-16 22813, 2011
JDD
hang on i'm gonna look
2011-08-16 22841, 2011
JDD
back
2011-08-16 22800, 2011
JDD
i've deleted my double entry's
2011-08-16 22828, 2011
JDD
on the left i have the tracks who arent matched
2011-08-16 22840, 2011
JDD
and on the right the albums
2011-08-16 22829, 2011
kepstin-laptop
so the thing you do is drag the tracks from the left side to the album that they're from on the right side.
JDD: once you save the files in picard, it will update the metadata in the files. Then rhythmbox will reload the files automatically and show you the updated information.
2011-08-16 22825, 2011
JDD
ok and if i sync my ipod all the cover info will be present also?
2011-08-16 22824, 2011
kepstin-laptop
JDD: picard only adds cover art if you have the cover art plugin enabled. You can check under Options -> Options, then the "Plugins" section to see if the Cover Art plugin is installed.
2011-08-16 22835, 2011
JDD
yes it is
2011-08-16 22859, 2011
kepstin-laptop
ok, then it should save the cover art in the files as well, and rhythmbox and your ipod should be able to use it.
2011-08-16 22811, 2011
JDD
i could also grab the cd and get it?
2011-08-16 22836, 2011
JDD
ehm what does the cluster button?
2011-08-16 22821, 2011
kepstin-laptop
the cluster button is there to help you with the unmatched tracks. It tries to figure out which unmatched tracks are from the same album, then it groups them together so they're easier to look up.
