Heh, I'm moving more towards the "don't care what it's like on disk" way at the moment. :)

You can select multiple clusters, hit lookup, and eachopen a different tab?
2007-06-19 17027, 2007

That was oldpicard.
2007-06-19 17029, 2007

oh
2007-06-19 17049, 2007

yeah, the one feature I'd missed from OldPicard...

The plugins menu shows when you right-click multiple releases, get cracking. :p

FauxFaux doesn't like asking for vote bombs, but it's really simple, two asins, picard is picking the wrong one.. http://musicbrainz.org/show/edit/?editid=7057221
2007-06-19 17056, 2007

FauxFaux Thought about it actually... don't know enougt python to do t, but it does seem you could have some kind of multiple cluster look
2007-06-19 17000, 2007
BrianFreud
...loop

I think the open-in-browser stuff is broken still, but I'll have to prove that before complaining. :p
2007-06-19 17059, 2007
BrianFreud
it works - all my search plugins do it... uses webbrowser2.open(url)
2007-06-19 17026, 2007
BrianFreud
I just don't think the ExpansionPoint supports multiple clusters tet. I'd have to reread that code to check
2007-06-19 17040, 2007
FauxFaux
It seems to mysteriously overwrite my tabs here, probably not entirely picard's fault.
2007-06-19 17054, 2007
BrianFreud
overwrite as in open in same tab?
2007-06-19 17008, 2007
FauxFaux
Yeah, even though it's off by default in the browser (Oooopera).
2007-06-19 17024, 2007
BrianFreud double checks... remembers seeing a setting for that
2007-06-19 17006, 2007
FauxFaux
In PicardQt? Curious, I can't see it.
2007-06-19 17034, 2007
BrianFreud
hmm, yeah, don't see it in settngs
2007-06-19 17044, 2007
BrianFreud
I've been digging through the source though, so that might be where I saw it
yeah, somehow AZN seems to have just royally screwed up any release having anything to do with France :P
2007-06-19 17044, 2007
FauxFaux
Indeed. :p
2007-06-19 17013, 2007

It's marked as an import from a french label on amazon.fr too, as expected.

true enough

Got a kick out of the latest one though - he gave 4 verification sites... 3 were freedb data, and the 4th was an mp3 site using freedb data to "make" releases

aww haha

Voting is nowhere near as fun as editing, I don't udnerstand you crazy people. :P
2007-06-19 17058, 2007

FauxFaux: of course not :)
2007-06-19 17000, 2007

lol
2007-06-19 17003, 2007

but voting gives me stuff to edit!
2007-06-19 17011, 2007
BrianFreud
agreed... and very true cooperaa :)
2007-06-19 17022, 2007

all these people leave the easy work for me - guess all and relating proof urls :D
2007-06-19 17027, 2007

plus, I'd rather waste some time keeping crud out, then have to fight to get rid of it later :D
2007-06-19 17042, 2007
cooperaa
heh
2007-06-19 17016, 2007
cooperaa
plus plus: its voting that brings attention to stuff in artists I'm subscribed to that is messy or incomplete - otherwise I'd never find out because my albums are tagged
2007-06-19 17029, 2007
BrianFreud
lol
2007-06-19 17034, 2007
FauxFaux prefers reactive to actually putting effort in.

me wishes he a tt problem... WAY too many releases nt in the datase
2007-06-19 17008, 2007

argh, batteries dying AGAIN??? just changed them last night! :P
2007-06-19 17032, 2007

FauxFaux: what I do is totally reactive :) I don't go looking for edits, they come right onto my lap when people do weird stuff
2007-06-19 17045, 2007
FauxFaux
It doesn't matter how much stuff there is in the database, so long as the stuff you won is okay. :p
2007-06-19 17019, 2007
BrianFreud
ok, yet more new batteries...
2007-06-19 17030, 2007

example of fun voting: Liff's edits :)

yup

same for gioele, he's fast catching up to liff

speaks Italian.. he's going through fixing every Italian release

many many pages of the same AR to multiple discs of the same release
2007-06-19 17004, 2007

:/
2007-06-19 17009, 2007
BrianFreud
yeah, I even asked liff how he's doing it
2007-06-19 17018, 2007
BrianFreud
I noticed he takes all of 5 seconds between AR edits
2007-06-19 17039, 2007
cooperaa
you may have not noticed because of the clutter in your inbox but I also commented on that edit saying "ya, I wanna know too!"
2007-06-19 17046, 2007
BrianFreud
lol
2007-06-19 17025, 2007
BrianFreud
as for me, I just look through the inline stuff, and my scan of the new adds - anything past that, it's me seeing something SO wrong on an add edit, I check to see what else the newbie is up to
2007-06-19 17000, 2007
BrianFreud
cooperaa: By the way... it was suggested to me that, instead of changing status on the pre-release adds, instead change the DQ?
2007-06-19 17016, 2007
cooperaa
ya I don't like that
2007-06-19 17041, 2007
BrianFreud
lol... /me has actually convice people on changing status edits, can't just do them
2007-06-19 17048, 2007
cooperaa
it is a waste of time, because by the time the edit to lower DQ passes, the release will be official and we'll have to change it back to default
2007-06-19 17010, 2007
cooperaa
it is just unproductive
2007-06-19 17016, 2007
BrianFreud
well, but that's true for either type of edit for a non-auto-editor
2007-06-19 17022, 2007
cooperaa
we should be only raising quality
2007-06-19 17041, 2007
cooperaa
no, auto-editors cannot change DQ automatically
2007-06-19 17005, 2007
BrianFreud
right - but status? (honestly, not sure if that's on the can be autoedited list or not...)
2007-06-19 17013, 2007
cooperaa
oh okay
2007-06-19 17030, 2007
cooperaa
um status "appears" updated right away but yes, an edit will be open for voting
2007-06-19 17033, 2007
BrianFreud
for me, either needs an edit. And the DQ ones are easier to defend than the status ones
2007-06-19 17058, 2007
cooperaa
BUT if we made it part of the guideline to enter "forthcoming" releases as bootlegs until they are official we could quote that and it would be entered at add time
2007-06-19 17010, 2007
cooperaa
we cannot change quality at add time
2007-06-19 17013, 2007
BrianFreud
right
2007-06-19 17031, 2007
cooperaa
but what use is LowQ anyways?
2007-06-19 17037, 2007
BrianFreud
but you know the only people really normally adding these before release day are also the same ones who won't read the guidelines anyhow
2007-06-19 17040, 2007
cooperaa
(other than for forthcoming releases)
2007-06-19 17053, 2007
cooperaa
(that's not true, I add them a lot :D )
2007-06-19 17056, 2007
BrianFreud
lol
2007-06-19 17008, 2007
cooperaa
well, a lot = sometimes
2007-06-19 17020, 2007
BrianFreud
things tha make you go hmmmm... ;)
2007-06-19 17045, 2007
cooperaa
:) I don't think there's anything wrong with them... the recordings exist, many on actual CDs that people have
2007-06-19 17013, 2007
BrianFreud
well, you managed to convice me they ought not to be just voted down for not being released yet
2007-06-19 17014, 2007
cooperaa
point in case: my friend gets promos from the radio station all the time... he had Trivium's crusade 2-3 weeks early and it ended up being the same tracklist as the official
2007-06-19 17037, 2007
cooperaa
case in point?
2007-06-19 17038, 2007
cooperaa
dammit
2007-06-19 17040, 2007
BrianFreud
but I think something needs to be set on them, else they get mixed in and things get confusing
2007-06-19 17051, 2007
cooperaa
I agree
2007-06-19 17059, 2007
BrianFreud
case in point: Black Light Burns' new album
2007-06-19 17014, 2007
BrianFreud
the advance went around a month before release
2007-06-19 17034, 2007
BrianFreud
tracklist was correct, but what noone seems to have noticed is that track 5 just ends 30 seconds in
2007-06-19 17047, 2007
BrianFreud
obviously not a correct time for the actual release.
2007-06-19 17016, 2007
BrianFreud
that's a simple fix. But I also have seen some where we have 4 or 5 of the same advance, each different in tracklist based on the torrent it came from
2007-06-19 17028, 2007
BrianFreud
makes for a "BigMess" once the thing actually comes out
2007-06-19 17051, 2007
cooperaa
well 4 or 5 tracklists should never happen
2007-06-19 17023, 2007
BrianFreud
lol... one band recently actually had 10 different versions of the advance cut and shipped
2007-06-19 17038, 2007
cooperaa eats his words
2007-06-19 17002, 2007
BrianFreud
post-release, figuring out which are which and what is what is a mess there :P
2007-06-19 17045, 2007
BrianFreud
I figure the lower DQ, with the 4 day instead of 14 days edit wait
2007-06-19 17054, 2007
BrianFreud
it's easier to clean up after, then set back to normal
2007-06-19 17003, 2007
cooperaa
ugh I don't want to go backwards, it seems so... counterproductive
2007-06-19 17017, 2007
cooperaa
everything should be entered LQ and then raised up
