Try jiggling the time-flux capacitator and then shuffle the doohickey to the left

Don't forget the whatjamacallit and the thingymabob though

LOL Muz! :D

:P

FauxFaux: ; <<>> DiG 9.3.2 <<>> musicbrainz.org; ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

but the thingymabob can be touchy and sometimes needs to be licked to see if there's life between the positive and the minus (muz, I don't think we're helping matters. But, at least we can provide comic relief!)

Hehe

minus!=/negative sheesh!

FWIW, the site is up for me

now, did I do that right? I doubt it.

Nyght, in this crazy world of ours, anything is right :P

No, it was very specific, one means equals, and one means doesn't equals, I had actually started to get that down. :D

== == equals, != == not equals

I am

I'm quite clearly not working though

as long as you appear to be working then it's good!

;)

Daft Punk ftw.

Muz: Heheh, there's a genuine original IBM model M on my desk.

:o

I'm not using it, that'd just be silly, but I could if you want a CLICKY competition. :P

LOL I remember that keyboard. :D Fondly infact

Fanta lemon is where it's at, dude.

I think I may be addicted to coke :(

Muz: yikes, coke is rather hard on the stomach, sadly

And the teeth.

And the tastebuds.

Keeps me awake, and happy

i can't drink it for that reason

Caffiene is for wimps!

and weight and and and. ;)

To be fair, I did have a phase where I went off of it for a few weeks

I've relapsed though

ah, you'll always be an addict then muz. :D

congrats!

I think I need to have an addiction to one thing :P When I come off the coke, I start smoking and vice versa

WoW!

Stamps!

bbq!

Or something equally bad for your health.

can't you make your addiction water?

Sleep is a good addiction.

Sleep is for whimps faux. :)

ugh, but I am hitting my wall of limits at the moment.

is the musicbrainz TRM server working at the moment?

anyone awake and using amarok?

I am!

Not by choice, don't expect me to be a ninja.

I am awake, but I ain't using Amarok this very moment

trying to get musicbrainz lookup working in kubuntu edgy

it seems to be working, but it keeps saying "cannot connect to TRM server

TRM is deprecated, it shouldn't be using that. How do you use musicbrainz from Amarok?

it's supposedly built in

uh

go to right click>"edit track info"

or something

Ah yes.

then click "fill in tags using music brainz

I have tunepimp4

It appears just just freeze here.

yeah, sometimes it does that, sometimes it says it can't contact the TRM server

does tunepimp4 still use TRM or does it use PUIDs?

sidd_ is now known as sidd

read something from lukas on the 11th saying he'd fix comething up over the next week, so I guess I'll wait for that

hmm?

no, tunepimp4 doesn't use PUIDs

really? maybe I read your message wrong

what (and where) did I say?

heh.. I'll try to find it again. can't remember even HOW I found it, let alone exactly what and where. just a sec

"Yes, I'd like to make a Edgy repository this week. --LukasLalinsky"

luks, does Picard support OGGs?

naught101: err, yes, but that will not help you with amarok

no? bugger

of course if does support oggs

Most excellent

naught101: you would have to rebuild the amarok package against this new libtunepimp

oh well, I just noticed the intructions for rebuilding python2.4-musicbrainz

so it's amarok that I'm waiting for, not musicbrainz?

you are waiting for ubuntu

maybe i'll try these instructions, see if it works

amarok already does support PUIDs

but I have amarok 1.44

from kde.org

yes, but built against libtunepimp 0.4

which uses TRMs

admittedly still the _ubuntu version

ok

so, best thing to do it to build amarok from source?

probably

might give it a try

but is the "get song info" feature really that useful?

then again, I'm going away fro a week, so no, it's not going to be that useful...

maybe I'll just wait

it's useful if you have a bunch of mp3s with dodgy tags from a mate

i'm just having trouble understanding it, that's all :)

i'm used to mass-tagging

clicking one each song would take too much times :)

mass-tagging?

like in picard

3 clicks and the whole album is tagged

yeah. i can't install picard yet though.

that's ok if it an album, and not just a bunch of random mp3s

ah, yes

that's probably why i also don't like amarok

it's very track oriented

in what way?

i like browse and listen my music by albums

and i don't need things like favorite tracks, similar tracks, ...

yeah, I think I know what you mean. it's sort of possible, but not really

amarok even fails to group VA albums correctly...

it needs a some kind of fuzzy logic for artist and album names, so that capitalisation and stuff doesn't screw it up

VA? sorry... noob

various artists :)

compilations mostly :)

ah, yeah

I don't listen to many compilations, so I haven't noticed

picard doesn't support wma does it?

it does

but not fingerprinting

only tagging

yeah, ok

luks, I take it you know about the ubuntu python-ctypes name problem?

yes
