        it used to be like that here for stuff that wasn't released here... I wouldn't know now though

        like I would go into shops and find albums for £20 to £25 just because they were imports

        it really depends on how well the dollar and pound are doing for me.

        nikki: that's scarily expensive.

        hi everyone. i should be able to get releases from a release_group using mbdump, right? i'm using mb_mysql and i can go from artists to release_groups just fine, but i can't seem to locate any of the information i need to join release_groups with releases

      • luks
        the database mixes different terminologies
      • 2009-09-29 27250, 2009

      • luks
        I'm assuming you are looking at the release table, but you want album instead
      • 2009-09-29 27240, 2009

      • luks
        (and of course you can go from a release group to releases via albums)
      • 2009-09-29 27250, 2009

      • bts-
        (thanks for the help..) well right now I am starting with release_group, mostly because I want to work with a canonical album rather than 10 dupe releases for an album
      • 2009-09-29 27248, 2009

      • bts-
        and from there, i was planning to get the most authorative release for the given release group, so i could ultimately get a track list for a release group (i know this is inherently a little lossy)
      • 2009-09-29 27255, 2009

      • bts-
        and i was having trouble getting an album (sorry: i mistakenly said 'release' above) for a release_group
      • 2009-09-29 27234, 2009

      • bts-
        or rather, getting the list of albums for a release_group
      • 2009-09-29 27248, 2009

      • luks
        select * from album where release_group = ?

      • 2009-09-29 27249, 2009

      • luks
        maybe there is a bug in mb_mysql
      • 2009-09-29 27258, 2009

      • bts-
        i think mb_mysql is OK for the artist table though, because i see it has the same number of columns as mbdump for artist
      • 2009-09-29 27212, 2009

      • bts-
        both have 12
      • 2009-09-29 27255, 2009

      • bts-
        oops, sorry. meant to look at 'album'. did 'artist' by mistake
      • 2009-09-29 27203, 2009

      • bts-
        let me back to you in a sec
      • 2009-09-29 27208, 2009

      • luks
        I don't see the release_group in mb_mysql at all
      • 2009-09-29 27213, 2009

      • luks
        where did you get it from?
      • 2009-09-29 27213, 2009

      • bts-
        i had to write my own "create table" for that one. i contacted chancey about it, but haven't yet received a response

      • luks
      • 2009-09-29 27217, 2009

      • luks
        album has 13 columns
      • 2009-09-29 27248, 2009

      • bts-
        yeah mine has 12. hm
      • 2009-09-29 27206, 2009

      • bts-
        thanks again for the help here

      • 2009-09-29 27224, 2009

        which seems to include the complete schema
      • 2009-09-29 27237, 2009

      • bts-
        cool :)
      • 2009-09-29 27222, 2009

      • ruaok
        interesting. thats good to know.
      • 2009-09-29 27224, 2009

      • luks
        oh, maybe it doesn't
      • 2009-09-29 27230, 2009

      • luks
        but it does support release groups
      • 2009-09-29 27258, 2009

      • bts-
        hm it looks like groovy one says only a subset is supported, without replication

      • 2009-09-29 27253, 2009

      • luks
        looking at http://code.google.com/p/groovy-mb-mysql/source/b… it does support only a few tables
      • 2009-09-29 27259, 2009

      • luks
        so it might not be the best choice
      • 2009-09-29 27243, 2009

      • bts-
        yeah. i think i might start with re-loading the MB_MySQL data with the updated album definition, and see where that takes me
      • 2009-09-29 27253, 2009

      • bts-
        going to give that a shot. thanks again so much for you help
      • 2009-09-29 27224, 2009

      • bts-
        i might throw a modified version of mb_mysql up on github or something

        i think scala and clojure are where it's at for newer languages on the jvm
      • 2009-09-29 27215, 2009

      • bts-
        both are functional, but scala is static and clojure dynamic
      • 2009-09-29 27216, 2009

      • luks
        I've found scalar a little weird
      • 2009-09-29 27232, 2009

      • luks
        and clojuse is ... well, a lisp :)
      • 2009-09-29 27237, 2009

      • bts-
        yeah :)
      • 2009-09-29 27217, 2009

      • bts-
        yeah scala definitely goes in a weird direction. almost java-meets-haskell. it sounds like people like it though
      • 2009-09-29 27224, 2009

        heh
      • 2009-09-29 27204, 2009

        yeah, i will definitely do that
