        I still don't get why "enter edit" should not be on the right. "submit" buttons are right-justified on almost all web forms. why not on mb?
      • reosarevok
        It was moved for consistency with every other form on MB, where Enter Edit is on the left just after the edit note form (both in tab order and physical placement)
      • The release editor was one of two exceptions - the other being an obscure menu for oauth apps

        Another case where edit preview is confusing: https://musicbrainz.org/edit/65138577 It isn't going to remove the only remining medium, is it?
      • Before the medium add was canceled it displayed CD2 will be removed.

        Prooobably not?
      • I wish I could say with 100% certainty that it won't remove the other medium :p
      • Wanna set a test in test.musicbrainz.org and see? :p

        Are you sure the removal was pointing to the other medium, and not to this one (and the other got cancelled)?
      • reosarevok checks the code for remove medium
      • Hmm. The data includes the medium id
      • So if we're not checking by that ID, we clearly should be

        kepstin: hi, you know this. in picard i have this script:
      • $if2(%artist%,%albumartist%) - %album%/
      • $if($gt(%totaldiscs%,1), $num(%discnumber%,1)-)$num(%tracknumber%, 2) %title% - %artist%
      • and thne it will put a trckartist as the artist. so say i have any release like
      • picard puts each file now in a separate folder because each artist is different :/
      • what i want is: to put artis of track in the back if it is different from album artist, but to only put album artist in the folder name
      • kepstin
        inside the $if2 you have the %artist% and %albumartist% in the wrong order
      • switch those and that'll do it i think?
      • KassOtsimine
        yea those wree switched before and same thing
      • but i'll try again (just need ot let picard finsih loading files :D)
      • kepstin
        hmm, i forget when that's applied, you might need to load files into picard after changing it
      • antlarr has quit
      • hmm. file naming pattern... I guess that's done when it's saved. mgiht be ok?
      • KassOtsimine
        it was liek this and thne i changed *after*
      • anyway the example shows same issue, noly now with a strange _ in front?
      • antlarr joined the channel
      • kepstin
        "$if2(%artist%,%albumartist%)" means "if there's a track artist, use that, otherwise use the album artist", but there's always a track artist, so it always uses that.
      • KassOtsimine
        i see
      • oh wait. shiti might have $unset albumartist
      • ahh
      • waht do i do if i want only to use track artist. but if there is an albu martist jjsut ot disregard using it altogether for the fodler name?
      • kepstin
        then just use %artist%
      • KassOtsimine
        but thne it will put e verything is seveal fodlers if each artist is differnt
      • kepstin
        yes, because that's what you asked for?
      • KassOtsimine
        my use case s : id it's "various artuist" i just want the folder to be named as album
      • kepstin
        ah, if you specifically want to disregard various artists, that's different
      • just a moment :)
      • KassOtsimine
        but i *do* want each file ot be %title% %trackartist%
      • but *only* for various artists
      • not jsut various artists. any release whr ethe *artist* of the track is messy. i never want track artists in the fodler name
      • kepstin
        if you have an album where the album artist isn't various artists, but each track has a different artist, what do you want to do?
      • KassOtsimine
        use the album artist i nthe folder name, put track artists in file names
      • kepstin
        alright. your file naming pattern first line should be : $if(%compilation%,,%albumartist% - )%album%/
      • i think. not tested, i don't have picard handy
      • adityasrivast has quit
      • if that doesn't work, it might need to be $if($eq(%compilation%,0),%albumartist% - )%album%/
      • KassOtsimine
        two ,'s- ,, in the first example?
      • kepstin
        yes
      • looking at it closer, i'm pretty sure the second one is more likely to work
      • try that first :)
      • KassOtsimine
        ok
      • Yohogala joined the channel
      • rdswift
        If that doesn't work for you, try the following:
      • $if($eq(%musicbrainz_albumartistid%,89ad4ac3-39f7-470e-963a-56509c546377),,%albumartist% - )%album%/$if($gt(%totaldiscs%,1),$num(%discnumber%,1)-)$num(%tracknumber%,2) %title% - %artist%
      • That specifically checks if the album artist id is that for "Various Artists". I use this (along with a specific check for "Unknown Artist" as well) in my naming script here.
      • kepstin
        with current versions of picard, the %compilation% tag should be equivalent to a check for the various artists mbid.
      • but yeah, i think i have a couple mbid checks in my tagger script :)
