just query the artists collection with your fav webservices library

it'll take a while though, due to the ws 1 query per sec limit ;)

Ah

A year ago, I wanted something like that for individual tracks

I have all of the components written already

just haven't had the time to actually glue it all together

Dammit, that was my first failed edit in two years :(

Shepard` is now known as Shepard

MBChatLogger: off

is not logging

is logging

warp, you speak Dutch?

warp: nice evade

heh

from what I gather, I can't query subscriptions via the ws at the time, correct?

brianfreud: warp *is* dutch

CatCat - lol, I can never remember if he’s Dutch or Norwegian :P

Offhand, Dutch caps - sentence with capitalized proper names?

trying to capitalize this one correctly - http://musicbrainz.org/show/release/?releaseid=...

brianfreud: exactly

i can take a look sinceit seems he's afk

?

nah its disney, cant be :)

hmmm, wonder if they match up against the english cast tracks?

if it’s close to the english one, in english it’s “Son of Man”

ah

meneskekind

if those 19 do match against the English 19 tracks, there’s no names in there at all

no there looks liek no names to me

hn? where is the other tarzan@?

souldnt they be having the same composer?

Not sure if any of the other cast recordings are in the db - was looking at the english one at castalbums.org

Phil Collins in either case tho

:O adadadadadddddd

not it isnt

some oliver guy

? hmmm

no, oscar

oscar strus

the album, the tarzan album

is under

oh, my mistake - forgot to switch artist :(((

:O

bøffefrø

lol

must’ve carried over from the last one I entered - The Chocolate Soldier (1959 Studio Cast)

hmmm... Would you consider the soundtrack to a movie biography of someone to be a “tribute” to that person?

no

the movie, yes

¨bot the soundtrack

makes sense

brianfreud: no. it's a movie soundtrack.

hrm

is there an easy way to deduce the artist id (numeric) from an mbid?

tribute soundtracks, and albums a clearly labelled "a tribte to" it helps with clearances

other than page-scraping?

marklar: normally no, though FauxFaux made me a lookup script to do that, using his database

hrmpf

I just don't feel like using a local db copy, it feels like cheating

no worky, btw.

it’s intended for tracks though - not sure if he coded it to work for other types of mbids

yeah, I tried with an artistid -- no go

yeah, I have a local dump of the entire artist table, just needed to convert 60k or so track mbids to rowids

hrm

feels overkill; I just want to subscribe to artists I have in my itunes lib

mapping artists to mbids atm

Plus, my replication is broken.

server update break replication?

Yup, I think I've fixed it now, no thanks to the update script.

Or not.

natta

Nn CatCat.

Replication sucks. Download hte whole db again! \o/

natta mo

huh, interesting

I wonder if this is a bug, or intentional

Using Firefox, all of the "Add (Artist|Label|Release|Track) Search" icons are the MBz favicon

when you add then, they get specific contextual icons

hopefully that made sense :P
