hmm, not impressed with adding PUIDs being called trivial, it's taken me weeks to actualy add PUIDs, after endless crashes, bugs, having to retag my whole collection cos MusicIP doesnt work with UTF16, hardly trivial
2006-04-05 09552, 2006
Joan_W
who said it was trivial - I don't even know what a PUID is
2006-04-05 09520, 2006
Joan_W
if I sound ignorant, it is because on that subject I am totally ignorant. Probably because I don't own an mp3 and so don't know what is involved in the process, but it sounds very complicated from what I have been reading. Hardly trivial.

Mudcrow
PUID is the new fingerprint, used in picard beta, you need to submit the audio fingerprint to MusicIP first (if there isnt one already), then picard will add the little black splodgy thing to the track

one day I will probably have to start looking at mp3's, but until then Ithink I will be content with my CD's and vinyls - a real dinosaur

question please. I want to add a relationship to the Rory Gallagher page to say that he was a member of the group Taste. I know how to add Amazon ASIN's and all the other stuff, but how do I do this?

Go to one artist page, click "Use this artist in a relationship". Go to second artist and do the same. Then "Create Relationship" link will appear
2006-04-05 09531, 2006
donredman
Joan_W: select the artist, in the AR pane, then navigate to the group and select that too, then an option "create relationship" will show

but, I started off on a manual typewriter, and if you can type 80 wpm on one of those, you can be superfast on this

You go to one artist page, select to use it in a relationship..

that means I have just found a new project - creating relationships for all my subscribed artists. Clear some space on the desk for Pete Frames Rock Family Trees and The Great Rock Discography - lots of page turning coming up

Can someone enlighten me how to get an artist with a featuring artist worked out for an album?
2006-04-05 09548, 2006
asmodai
Just added a missing album to the database. And need to make one track have an additional artist, but a bit stumped how to do such a thing correctly.
2006-04-05 09545, 2006
Mudcrow
is it a collaboration bewteen two artists or is it an artist with a featured artist?
2006-04-05 09502, 2006
asmodai
artist with featured
2006-04-05 09518, 2006
Mudcrow
add (feat. artist) to track name, then click on the track and added a relationship to the featured artist with "performed" as the relationship
2006-04-05 09555, 2006
Mudcrow
feat. artist - artist being the name

Btw, whoever is coding Picard, .7 rocks :)
2006-04-05 09511, 2006

that would be luks.I thnk he does most of the coding on picard
2006-04-05 09555, 2006

Cool. Now there's a project I would want to contribute to again. :)

website is also cool

(about time someone started a freedb/cddb replacement project)
2006-04-05 09554, 2006
asmodai
When I change a track name from original to original (feat. blah) I can still use the original's track link to add the relationship, whilst I wait for the pending change to be ok'd?
2006-04-05 09545, 2006
Mudcrow
you can change it before the edit is approved, makes no difference
2006-04-05 09507, 2006
asmodai
Cool, so it allocates unique ids regardless of the ultimate name.
2006-04-05 09520, 2006
Mudcrow
don't you have track times for the rest of the album?
2006-04-05 09554, 2006

if names were a key, there'd be big problems :)

asmodai, that's ok, it would be nice to have them though
2006-04-05 09525, 2006

2006-04-05 09537, 2006

When you select: performed {additional}{guest}{vocal} on
2006-04-05 09508, 2006
asmodai
do you still need to select the guest checkbox?
2006-04-05 09559, 2006
Mudcrow
if it was a guest performance, yes, most featured artists would be guest performances
2006-04-05 09512, 2006
asmodai
ok, thought the {guest} implied that
2006-04-05 09518, 2006
asmodai
Guess it doesn't.
2006-04-05 09532, 2006
asmodai
(which, intuitively doesn't make sense to me)
2006-04-05 09558, 2006
Mudcrow
oh on vocal, yeah thats confusing, as its stating the same thing twice really
2006-04-05 09519, 2006
ojnkpjg
(feat. x) is legacy
2006-04-05 09521, 2006
asmodai
*nods* Exactly. The way I read it as a user it seems to duplicate.
2006-04-05 09529, 2006
ojnkpjg
it was how you expressed the relation before AR
2006-04-05 09543, 2006
ojnkpjg
AR still isn't fully integrated
2006-04-05 09549, 2006
ojnkpjg
hopefully feat. goes away from titles one day
2006-04-05 09526, 2006

i hope so too, I don't like adding stuff to titles that isnt in the original title
2006-04-05 09534, 2006

ojnkpjg: Still needed now, though?

2006-04-05 09510, 2006

to properly express covers, featured artists, etc

I'm happy media monkey allows the use of artist and album artist

Wooden Heart (Muß I Denn...) (Laughing version) - German release of an Elvis Presley comp. does that title make sense?
