mudcrow: I've ploughed through the docs, but found no mention of how to do it, just that one ought to.

Okay.
2007-01-09 00956, 2007
mudcrow
yeah, theres no mention about how to set ANVs in the help section. Discogs help is pretty poor, but its being re-written and hopefully a more helpful help section will be in place soon

mudcrow: Is there a way to see me failed edits?
2007-01-09 00943, 2007
mudcrow
any new submissions that have failed will be in drafts, for edits, the link should still work if you still have the email for the rejection

isnt the disc id supposed to provide the track times?
2007-01-09 00914, 2007
FauxFaux
It does in a later server release.
2007-01-09 00942, 2007

oh, so i cant add the track times without deleting the discid?

or.. well.. still working on it really.

cool -- how did that go?

not very well :)

I've heard that the process is ugly...
2007-01-09 00957, 2007

it was a sort of forced upgrade after .. i made some mistakes.

oh. :-(

i did an apt-get dist-upgrade out of habit, but forgot i still had sarge backports in my sources.list
2007-01-09 00926, 2007
warp
which sort of fucked things up a bit.
2007-01-09 00916, 2007

the ugly bit here was the kernel, stuff about initrd images which couldn't be made. most of it got resolved without having to physically connect monitor+keyboard to the box
2007-01-09 00938, 2007
warp
however, i wasn't sure if a -686 kernel would run on an amd k6... so I just tried. it didn't.
2007-01-09 00938, 2007
warp
i still have to upgrade the rest, but i better remove all kinds of crap i'm not using first.
2007-01-09 00928, 2007
ruaok doesn't look forward to upgrading his machines

this is just my own box for mail+irc, it's ok if its offline for a few days.

i'm trying to get it to rename a bunch of files that are all called "Unknown Artist / Unknown Album"
2007-01-09 00946, 2007
Nerd42
will it do that? (and not just edit the stupid id3 tags - but actually rename the files and folders?)
2007-01-09 00954, 2007
Kerensky97
Yes
2007-01-09 00956, 2007
Kerensky97
In the settings for picard you can have it rename the files along with the tags.
2007-01-09 00906, 2007
Nerd42
how do i do that?
2007-01-09 00920, 2007

i have the "renaming files when editing metadata tags" option checked - the only problem is that it simply isn't doing it
2007-01-09 00945, 2007

Weird, do the files have any write/read protection on them?
2007-01-09 00938, 2007
