:D
-
Muz_ forgot about that
-
aCiD2
ruaok: you're crazy regardless, maybe that's why?
-
:)
-
ruaok
oh yeah. forgot about that.
-
yllona
no the C & D crowd are dangerous... lots of stressed out colored women laughing and gossiping....it's not for the faint of heart.
-
ruaok
my crazyness is itching real bad too.
-
must be playa time.
-
24 days and counting.
-
oh god. that's scary.
-
yllona
ruaok: check teh comment count an each article
-
ruaok knows
-
yeah... C & D is an addiction. i had to ban myself from reading C & D *before* 4 pm, or even better 6pm
-
sometimes i have to force myself to save it until the weekend
-
like this week, tho i peek at the articles in RSS :)
-
but you can't see comments in RSS, ergo -- i can't respond and get caught up in the dialogue :)

BrianG
how does one figure out the BPM of a song?
-
yllona
BrianG: there are some online tools, but the desktop apps are much better.
-
aCiD2
BrianG: How accurate do you need?

hello everyone
-
aCiD2
hey Dial8urMind723
-
Dial8urMind723
i have a quick question i hope someone can answer
-
when you go to musicbrainz website
-
Muz_
42!
-
Dial8urMind723
and u search an artist....
-
BrianG
aCiD2: i'm not sure, trying to mix an a capella track with an existing beat
-
aCiD2
Oh, so pretty precise then...
-
dunon, I don't mix with bpm counters, I just use my ears
-
BrianG
ah
-
i'll poke around on the tubes
-
aCiD2
The most precise you'll get is ableton live, and putting beat locators
-
Dial8urMind723
what is the difference between "showing EP, Single, Comp" and "show all releases"
-
aCiD2
But other than that, search for bpm tappers, and metronomes
-
yllona
BrianG: i use my ears too. but there are some decent desktop apps to get you started
-
Muz_
An artist can also have live albums, and compilations
-
Clicking "show all releases" will show those albums too
-
Dial8urMind723
oh ok... one more thing....
-
what does "Change to Full Listing" do?
-
yllona recommends purchasing an actual metronome to train your ears... they're not expensive ;)
-
i noticed it displays more albums but they see do be many duplicates
-
aCiD2
Are you sure they are duplicates?
-
Dial8urMind723
seems to be... not sure what that does do
-
aCiD2
They may have the same title, but different track counts/listings
-
Dial8urMind723
ok.... is that was "change to full listing" does?
-
aCiD2
changing to full listing shows "uncommon" releases - such as remix albums, compliations, various artist releases, and bootlegs
-
Dial8urMind723
ah ok.
-
aCiD2
While the normal listing is usually just what the artist themself specifically produced
-
Dial8urMind723
I am a music-nut, and I need every song by every band I like.... so i use this site all the time to make sure I have everything
-
how is that different that and "show all releases"
-
Also how accurate is the MP3 Tagger?
-
yllona
ruaok: e-mail on the way... it's big :)
-
ruaok is curious
-
aCiD2
Dial8urMind723: As precise on the data you read on the website
-
yllona
hah, i'll call you.
-
ruaok
wait on that.
-
short on time, atm.
-
wanna get something finished up before I have to head out. tomorrow is better.

okay...

Jugdish__
how do you determine if data is finalized vs. pending when using the xml service?
-
Dial8urMind723
OK. So the MP3 tagger does a great job? How close to 100
-
how close to 100 percent does it do?
-
CatCat
which one?

ruaok or luks?
-
Dial8urMind723
how close to 100 percent accuracy is MP3 tagger?????
-
CatCat
sorry, only a mo
-
wich tagger
-
Dial8urMind723
the one called Magic MP3 Tagger
-
CatCat
dunno
-
why not use picard?
-
Dial8urMind723
which one is the best one to use then
-
oh i dont know!!! i saw both options, i just chose one
-
picard - does it get the album art too?
-
aCiD2
If it can
-
Dial8urMind723
ok
-
ruaok
Jugdish: ya?
-
Dial8urMind723
i thought the one i downloaded is meant for musicbrainz
-
aCiD2
It'll get album art from the MusicBrainz page via album art AR, or Amazon ASIN
-
ruaok needs to leave
-
Dial8urMind723: They are, but Picard is most closely assossciated with MusicBrainz
-
Jugdish
hey ruaok: how can you tell if the data returned by the xml service is finalized vs. pending?
-
aCiD2
And what 99% of us in here recommend :)
-
ruaok
Jugdish: you can't.
-
aCiD2
-
Jugdish
oh :(
-
ruaok
what did you have in mind?
-
Jugdish
i wanted to right a javascript front-end that talked to the xml service to make viewing and editing in mb much faster
-
but it sounds like it wouldn't have all the functionality of the straight www service
-
ruaok
that's not to say that you can't add the modpending flags to the XML web service.
-
Jugdish
oh?
-
ruaok
should actually be pretty trivial.
-
Jugdish
ok cool, i'll have to look into that then
-
ruaok
each entity we load will have the modpending flag already loaded into memory.
-
in the mb_server source check out cgi-bin/MusicBrainz/Server/Handlers/WS/1
-
that is the WS and its pretty straightforward.
-
Jugdish
ok thanks, was just gonna ask you where to look exactly ;)
-
ruaok
ok, I gotta run off.
-
:-)
-
back in a bit.
-
Jugdish
see ya!
