        can the URLs in artist relationships be edited? e.g. I'd like to change http://www.moonspell.com/index.html in http://musicbrainz.org/showurl.html?urlid=1782 to just http://www.moonspell.com/
      • 2006-04-28 11807, 2006

      • timo-
        or should I delete it and add a new relationship?
      • 2006-04-28 11828, 2006

      • MartinRudat
        Click Edit Relationships, you should see an edit link for that relationship.

        I'm glad I put in my notes when it was lyricists, made it much easier to find the mods to delete

      • Nyght
        glad you did too, and I think someone cleaned up the whole mess for us (g0llum) for one, nechto13 probably for another.. I'm going through and making whatever changes I can. (but, we did manage to get those two albums out of Disney!

      • 2006-04-28 11819, 2006

      • fctk
        i have an album with some unlinked songs
      • 2006-04-28 11827, 2006

      • MartinRudat
        an answer misunderstanding the question!
      • 2006-04-28 11833, 2006

      • Shepard
        unlinked?
      • 2006-04-28 11848, 2006

      • fctk
        yes... they have not been recognised my mbtagger
      • 2006-04-28 11809, 2006

      • fctk
        how can i let mb recognise them?
      • 2006-04-28 11812, 2006

      • Nyght
        there's a little lookup button on the bottom if you highlight the track
      • 2006-04-28 11814, 2006

      • fctk
        i know they are the right ones
      • 2006-04-28 11818, 2006

      • Nyght
        (there's a link somewhere for picard)
      • 2006-04-28 11847, 2006

      • fctk
        they appear in the "unmatched files for this album"
      • 2006-04-28 11839, 2006

      • fctk
        for example, can i manually edit their tags in order to make them more similar to the ones in mb's database?
      • 2006-04-28 11846, 2006

      • fctk
        then retry the checking?
      • 2006-04-28 11851, 2006

      • Nyght
        oh, you can drag those down to the album
      • 2006-04-28 11852, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        you can look up the album, then associate the unmatched tracks with the ones on the album page
      • 2006-04-28 11804, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        then write the tags
      • 2006-04-28 11811, 2006

      • Nyght
        that too
      • 2006-04-28 11821, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        he's using the old mb tagger, i think

        oh, or not
      • 2006-04-28 11841, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        then what nyght said
      • 2006-04-28 11816, 2006

      • fctk
        i say you what i do step-by-step...
      • 2006-04-28 11837, 2006

      • fctk
        open dir > (i select the album dir)
      • 2006-04-28 11854, 2006

      • fctk
        i select all tracks > cluster
      • 2006-04-28 11826, 2006

      • fctk
      • 2006-04-28 11846, 2006

      • fctk
        i find the right album
      • 2006-04-28 11823, 2006

      • Nyght listening
      • 2006-04-28 11830, 2006

        kk
      • 2006-04-28 11837, 2006

      • fctk
        sorry... after cluster i click on the album then lookup
      • 2006-04-28 11800, 2006

      • fctk
        then i find the right album in mb database and click on tagger (the green one on the website)
      • 2006-04-28 11826, 2006

      • Nyght
        so far everything sounds good
      • 2006-04-28 11853, 2006

      • fctk
        then i click on my album in "album cluster" and draw it to the one in "album"
      • 2006-04-28 11813, 2006

      • fctk
        now i have 7 matched and the others unmatched
      • 2006-04-28 11826, 2006

      • fctk
        my question is: how can i make match the other ones?
      • 2006-04-28 11805, 2006

      • Nyght
        are they in the unrecognized area under the recognized album?
      • 2006-04-28 11823, 2006

      • fctk
        they are in "unmatched files for this album"
      • 2006-04-28 11859, 2006

      • Nyght
        You drag them up to the appropriate song names
      • 2006-04-28 11853, 2006

      • fctk
        ah ok
      • 2006-04-28 11854, 2006

      • fctk
        then?
      • 2006-04-28 11816, 2006

      • fctk
        how can i increase the "similar" rating?
      • 2006-04-28 11836, 2006

      • Nyght
        then check them for times, to make sure that they are correct with the db, and then highlight the album and go up to the save tab
      • 2006-04-28 11813, 2006

      • Nyght
        the similarity goes off of time, capitalization, spelling etc.
      • 2006-04-28 11819, 2006

      • fctk
        the times are ok
      • 2006-04-28 11823, 2006

      • Nyght
        The closer you are to the db already the more similar it will be.
      • 2006-04-28 11801, 2006

      • fctk
        but i'd like to increase the similarity
      • 2006-04-28 11805, 2006

      • fctk
        for example
      • 2006-04-28 11819, 2006

      • fctk
        the album tag for my local files is obviously wrong
      • 2006-04-28 11833, 2006

      • fctk
        i'd like to manually change it in order to increase similarity
      • 2006-04-28 11847, 2006

      • Nyght
        I don't know how much the puid comes to play in that. I don't believe it would if the songs were at all similar (it hasn't for me.)
      • 2006-04-28 11835, 2006

      • Nyght
        Okay, then what ojnkpjg said, you can look up the albums., Manually edit your tags and then do the comparison afterwards.
      • 2006-04-28 11854, 2006

      • Nyght
        That should give you 100% or near enough (but it's you doing the work for the tagger)
      • 2006-04-28 11807, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        when you've dragged them all down to the album, you can select the album title heading then click the write button
      • 2006-04-28 11813, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        and it'll write new tags to all the files
      • 2006-04-28 11820, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        then they'll be 100% similar
      • 2006-04-28 11845, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        the write button is the disk icon, btw
      • 2006-04-28 11847, 2006

      • Nyght
        that too ;)
      • 2006-04-28 11830, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
      • 2006-04-28 11833, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        it might be helpful
      • 2006-04-28 11859, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        maybe a dialog box with just a link to that page would be helpful when you activate the help menu item
      • 2006-04-28 11804, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        instead of "there's no help file yet"

        Beautiful Ian! But I did tell you the discs are all out of the disney class right? (it will help for the future tracks though)
      • 2006-04-28 11844, 2006

      • Ian_Moody
        what do you mean by out of Disney class?
      • 2006-04-28 11815, 2006
