        you click "add medium" in the release editor
      • and add a second medium
      • hierosme
        Okay, i cannot find anything that matches in "Existing medium" or "CD stub import", so i'm left with "Manual entry", with a blank freestyle text input box. How do i format that text?
      • chillage joined the channel
      • SothoTalKer
        depends on the language of your release :)

        hierosme: I'm talking about adding via the website, not via picard
      • SothoTalKer
        hierosme: in the "manual entry" mode you can put in a simple tracklist
      • you can leave it blank, too, and then add the tracks manually in the form
      • but the format is usually: tracknumber. artist - title tracklength
      • hierosme
        SothoTalKer: thanks, i ledft it blank and clicked again on "add medium", it took me to the form to add tracks, this time with a 2nd list for "medium 2", so that's good, thanks. But i wish that i didn't have to input all that stuff manually, since RB and SJ knew the titles, i was hoping for the list to be there somehow
      • So that's why i sought Picard, but it's not helping either
      • SothoTalKer
        what is RB and SJ?
      • hierosme
        As mentioned in my very 1st comment, "Rhythmbox" and "Sound Juicer"
      • SothoTalKer
        picard is sadly limited to add 1 medium per release. you could add 5 separate releases and then merge them afterwards, but this will take some time (:
      • hierosme
        RB is a media player on Linux, SJ is a CD ripper on Linux
      • SothoTalKer
        if RB or SJ have the tracklist you could just copy and paste it
      • hierosme
        i haven't figured out how to captre it from their display
      • *capture
      • SothoTalKer
        you could also try to find the tracklist online.
      • hierosme
        But about Picard: yes i would gladly make separate releases and merge'em later, but how do i even make one release? Do i also have to type in everything?
      • Can't it find the titles like RB and SJ?
      • SothoTalKer
        picard gets data only from musicbrainz, so if the release is not in the database, you would have to input it manually.
      • hierosme
        Thanks for the idea of trying to find the track list online
      • SothoTalKer
        you could use cuetools
      • hierosme
        wuzzat?
      • oh, it's a Linux pkg
      • SothoTalKer
        it does not provide a direct way to add stuff to musicbrainz, but it uses CTDB, which has way way way more discids
      • hierosme
        Thanks for the tip
      • SothoTalKer
        it has almost 4.5 million different discids. sadly the database is not directly searchable
      • hierosme
        Does it have a GUI, or does it need a front-end?
      • I see that it "enhances" shntool
      • SothoTalKer
        i use windows, so it has a fancy gui for me :D
      • hierosme
        haha
      • Digging a bit it must have its own GUI, so i'll try it
      • SothoTalKer
        you can also rip CDs with the accompanied cueripper
      • sadly it does not support adding stuff to musicbrainz directly
      • hierosme
        sounds good
      • well perhaps i can handle a bit of juggling

      • GtI was a lot harder than red/blue team
      • SothoTalKer

      • antlarr2
        does anyone know Les Luthiers around here? Most of their recordings (either in VHS, DVDs or CD) are just live recordings of their shows, which include plenty of talking (monologues and biologues) as well as songs. Should we use Album + Live + Spokenword ? or just Album + Live ? or Other instead of Album?
      • reosarevok
        heh
      • I'd... not be sure
      • I mean, even the "songs" are most often jokes that are kinda song-ish :p
      • antlarr2
        I've been adding quite a few missing "albums" that were not in musicbrainz, and I was just now wondering if Album is ok
      • reosarevok
        I think Album is fine
      • But not sure about Spokenword :)
      • antlarr2
        hehe, ok
      • reosarevok
        Maybe? I guess it does kinda fit
      • antlarr2
        I think there was a spokenword attribute for recordings , isn't it? so I'll try at least to add that to tracks which are pure talking
      • SothoTalKer joined the channel
      • btw, if anyone could add their opinion on this edit... https://musicbrainz.org/edit/56192642 ... I'm actually not sure about what am I supposed to do to include the right information about that "album/show"
      • reosarevok
        Just wait for Paula to see your notes and see what she thinks :)
      • antlarr2
        ok :)
