        merging needs at least two releases to merge, so you need to click "merge release" on another release

        hmm
      • 2014-02-21 05240, 2014

      • Rasi
        what i want to do is add a TOC to an existing release

      • 2014-02-21 05249, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Then just search for that release when on the TOC submission page

      • 2014-02-21 05232, 2014

      • Rasi
        yea had to search for release instead of artist
      • 2014-02-21 05225, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Artist should work too I think (and give you a list of releases with that amount of tracks)
      • 2014-02-21 05241, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        btw, why doesn't the search pick up the aliases?
      • 2014-02-21 05222, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        tried searching スーパーカー and it didn't find the japanese band
      • 2014-02-21 05242, 2014

      • nikki
        where?
      • 2014-02-21 05210, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        Picard
      • 2014-02-21 05237, 2014

      • nikki
        picard has a search? o_O
      • 2014-02-21 05246, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        lookup
      • 2014-02-21 05258, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        and lookup in browser
      • 2014-02-21 05213, 2014

      • Rasi
        nikki: it has.. and serves as a proxy to send back results from browser
      • 2014-02-21 05218, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        before I set the japanese name as artist name, it didn't react
      • 2014-02-21 05256, 2014

      • nikki
        if you mean the tag lookup page, then probably because that's crappily implemented
      • 2014-02-21 05210, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        oh
      • 2014-02-21 05219, 2014

      • nikki
        and you should probably enter a bug ticket for it :P

      • nikki
        but you should give the url that's not working, 'cause all the searches and lookups I've tried worked ok
      • 2014-02-21 05254, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        that's after I added the additional fields to the alias
      • 2014-02-21 05200, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        it works now
      • 2014-02-21 05238, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        I wonder if aliases are not considered if they're not set as artist name or search hint
      • 2014-02-21 05219, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
      • 2014-02-21 05215, 2014

      • nikki
        what was the url that wasn't working anyway?
      • 2014-02-21 05243, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        it was the lookup in picard itself
      • 2014-02-21 05258, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        not finding any results, even if they existed
      • 2014-02-21 05203, 2014

      • nikki
        ah...
      • 2014-02-21 05228, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        the artist in japanese stores is tagged like スーパーカー instead of the typeset SUPERCAR
      • 2014-02-21 05223, 2014

      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        so the files from iTunes ended up having those tags and Picard wasn't finding the releases

        ^ this
      • 2014-02-21 05223, 2014

      • nikki
        the same stuff you'd use "relate to url" for
      • 2014-02-21 05240, 2014

      • noobie
        e.g. discog rl link ..?
      • 2014-02-21 05240, 2014

        It should have documentation bubble :P
      • 2014-02-21 05242, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, it's just an easier way to add URLs while adding or editing entities

      • noobie
        if i have a track name like track1 (1999) should i keep the (1999) ?
      • 2014-02-21 05215, 2014

      • jesus2099
        looks like a version or a live date, then yes if it’s printed on the back cover’s tracklise
      • 2014-02-21 05222, 2014

      • noobie
        yep it is
      • 2014-02-21 05230, 2014

        release information

      • 2014-02-21 05208, 2014

      • kepstin-laptop
        noobie: on the recording, you'd probably want to put it into the disambiguation comment
      • 2014-02-21 05232, 2014

      • noobie
        and keep it completely out of the record name?
      • 2014-02-21 05254, 2014

      • nikki
        it depends what it means
      • 2014-02-21 05257, 2014

      • kepstin-laptop
        yeah. but you can't do that in the release editor, you'd do it after adding the release
      • 2014-02-21 05259, 2014

      • Freso
        Is it possible to seed those links btw?

      • nikki
        the recordings guidelines say extra title info should normally stay in the recording title
      • 2014-02-21 05241, 2014

      • kepstin-laptop
        and yeah, depends what it means - if it's saying "the 1999 re-recording of this song" or "the live version recorded in 1999" then it should be in the disambig comment on the recording, imo.
      • 2014-02-21 05247, 2014

      • nikki
        it's only live info that goes in the disambiguation
      • 2014-02-21 05208, 2014

      • jesus2099
        it’s also version info that doesn’t appear on the official tracklist that goes there
      • 2014-02-21 05211, 2014

      • Lotheric
        Is it normal that in the new release editor the date field is on two lines ?
