Does anyone know how discids like this get created? https://musicbrainz.org/cdtoc/T6hoak93U7w8XbGZO... There is a correct one attached to this release which shows it to be 1:17 but this discid (which someane attached to a release indicates it is 10 hours long.

A faulty cd scanner of some sort

loujine has a report in review for too long discids, actually, I just fixed it up today a bit :)

Look what good friend of mine voted against removing it. Yeesh.

Oh crap, there may be no such thing as a multichannel SHM-SACD... https://www.sa-cd.net/showthread/120311/120328

Someone else who would know says no. https://www.quadraphonicquad.com/forums/threads...

I've never seen a multicchannel one

From the discussion it seems that that they can't do it within specs. (single layer, uncompressed DSD)

(or a hybrid one for that matter)

Definiteley can't be hybrid

is it to do with the SHM manufacturing process?

From what I read the creators felt that single layer uncompressed DSD sounds better so they don't do it. I'm sure the manufacturing process would support it but it isn't possible with the limitaions they put on the spec.

In fact most of the ones I've seen have been reissues of stereo LPs

We just added medium formats for SHM-SACD (2ch) and SHM-SACD (mch) as part of a bigger SACD medium format improvement. They should probably go away.

With the new SACD medium format for the "mch" area, debate is starting over whether it is still appropriate to add ETI for the mix info. A big issue seems to be that most editors use userscripts that show disambiguation after the track titles but general users would not see that info (or get it when tagging with picard without adding release_comment in a script. https://musicbrainz.org/edit/73703622

Sorry, I meant recording_comment

how can I set a track length for this release correctly?

the final track is actually 10 minutes longer (look at the disc ID attached https://musicbrainz.org/cdtoc/JC76zZHOnDiKsf.n6...)

it's about 10 minutes of silence follewed by a short chorus...

Set track durations from the disc ID again

ah, nice! TIL

and it's automatically set! thanks!

Seeing evelyn and levine is making me cross eyed.

:D Can't you colour our nicks differently?

I can barely figure out IRC so, no. :-)

Heh, gotcha. It's a client specific thing, but yeah, I couldn't live without it at this point. If two people have the same colour and same length name and talk to each other, uuuh

oh that reminds me, I should run nickcolor.

weechat and similar clients have it built-in
