        is there a way to add Disc IDs if all I have is the EAC log with the TOC, not the physical disk? That is, does any existing tool exist for that, or would I need to talk to the API myself? everything I've seen so far wants to read the actual disk
      • c1e0
        dominikh: The conversation at (https://community.metabrainz.org/t/adding-cd-wi...) may answer your question. Not sure though. Do check it out.
      • dominikh
        c1e0: thanks, you made me go through that a second time and spot some more solutions.

        huh. how can it be that the lengths of 8 tracks have changed drastically, without any such change existing in the edit log for the release? https://musicbrainz.org/release/a0f2cecc-6cc6-4... take track 20 for example and try to figure out why its length is 4:16, when in the last edit mentioning time it was 3:45

        my guess is that it's due to attaching a disc ID
      • reosarevok
        The discID has 3:45 for the last track though

        CatQuest: hi! I'm sorry I've been caught up doing lots of schoolwork, but now I'm back on here for hopefully at least the next few days :)
      • the task is also taking me a really long time because translation is surprisingly difficult, because I don't have much of an idea of the exact terms used for the instruments, so I'm mostly just trying to figure it out depending on context
      • I should finish updating some things by tonight, hopefully :)
      • CatQuest
        antara: hi!
      • don't sweat it
      • antara
        yes :)
      • also, for the 'improve this instrument' subtasks do I have to do anything specific or is just compiling info like I've been doing until now okay?
      • CatQuest
        jup that's fine, ust liek you've been doing
      • just like*
      • c1e0 has quit
      • if it helps you limit yourself: what i'd need the most is inof about telling them apart: how they relate and how the "evolved". thing so that, once someone is given the term"veena" and these options, they could if possible pick the right ones out with theinformation them have.. to gear it into being able to disambiguate them.
      • so far what you've been doing is really goo d at this
      • how they relate and how the "evolved", how they look, strings and frets and amounts of these, as well as materials.
      • you've been doing that and it's really hlpefull
      • antara
        okay! will do
      • CatQuest
        also: if possible, what irc are you using?
      • antara
        once I'm done with info addition I'll try and do relationships
      • CatQuest
        it's goof if you cna lurk here as well
      • antara
        right now just the freenode webchat
      • CatQuest
        good not goof
      • antara
        should I switch to something else?
      • CatQuest
        aha. there are ircnode webchat, atual programs (also apps for phone if that's what you're using) and the irccloud client wich is a srt oof both combination
      • honestly, use what works for you,
      • anyway about translations: we have other indians in the chat (here and in #metabrainz (though that's for more development) that, might be able ot help you too, both other gci students and metors and devs)
      • mentors*
      • it's ok to ask other people for help also :)
      • the whole point of "open source" is "collaboration" :)
      • antara
        okay, I'm usually using a laptop so this works, but I'll maybe try a phone app because this sometimes hangs
      • oh, that's lovely! I will absolutely ask if there are any more translation problems
      • CatQuest
        :D there are also programs for irc .. what os on your laptop?
      • antara
        windows 01
      • oops I mean 10
      • CatQuest
        oh
      • i know nothing aobut that (I have win 7 on the other machine and an old mac 10.7 here) but i bleive there must be irc-clients for windows 10
      • Vonter has quit
      • I use "xchat" or "hexchat".
      • antara
        oh okay
      • I'll hunt for those :)
      • CatQuest
        for apps on a phone (I use android) I use irccloud, and revolutionirc. also on windows I use the irccloud client (wich is still experimental, it's true)
      • antara
        hexchat seems to work for me
      • CatQuest
        neat!
      • antara
        I'll try installing it tonight
      • oh yes I've heard of irccloud, I'll try that too
      • CatQuest
        that's cool. you can lurk in the channel and even after gci, I'd definitely want you here. you're research has been invaluable to me and. the point of gci (for us) is not jsut abusing student to do grunt work ;) it's to get more influx of people inot our database
      • I think you could, for example help reosarevok with how indian classicla works for example
      • any other gci students reading this: this goes for yo utoo! everyone working hard adding data to MusicBrainz (and BookBrainz) is welcome to stay after gci and add more!
      • 👏
      • antara
        yes, I'd love that :) I really like the instrument tasks because I get to learn so much
      • especially for the littler-known instruments, finding information is tough but it feels very rewarding
      • and helping with classical music sounds great!
