        If it doesn't break our server, it will break people's file names. :)
      • 2014-07-24 20503, 2014

      • CatQuest would fart in their general direction
      • 2014-07-24 20521, 2014

        maybe Picard needs an "ipod friendly" setting (to abbreviate titles)
      • 2014-07-24 20556, 2014

      • CatQuest
        ja jøss
      • 2014-07-24 20519, 2014

      • CallerNo6
        then Castle CatQuest will be safe.
      • 2014-07-24 20521, 2014

      • KRSCuan
        We do have a Windows-friendly setting.
      • 2014-07-24 20538, 2014

      • KRSCuan
        Dunno if it truncates file names above the NTFS limit.
      • 2014-07-24 20554, 2014

      • KRSCuan
        Or I think that was actually a Win32 limit with the 255 or so chars.
      • 2014-07-24 20511, 2014

      • KRSCuan
        Because NTFS also accepts things like question marks.

      • 2014-07-24 20506, 2014

      • CatQuest
        idk, if I try something weird with 32 systems looking at newer files I get filenames like blub~1.mp3
      • 2014-07-24 20534, 2014

      • CatQuest
        which iir is what dos did to files
      • 2014-07-24 20548, 2014

      • CatQuest
        longer than 8 chars
      • 2014-07-24 20509, 2014

      • CatQuest
        what does a win system do with files named like "Swan Lake: Act III: Scène: Siegfried's mother expresses joy at her son's choice of Odile. Siegfried and Odile dance. Rotbart and Odile leave the ball. " ? can we test?
      • 2014-07-24 20526, 2014

      • CatQuest
        waait you said ipod users
      • 2014-07-24 20551, 2014

      • CatQuest
        isn't that mac wanker-y? doesn't mac wanker-y do long filenames?
      • 2014-07-24 20553, 2014

      • CatQuest
        idk
      • 2014-07-24 20556, 2014

      • CatQuest
        hmmmmm
      • 2014-07-24 20507, 2014

      • CatQuest
        I wish we had a test server so i coudl test thist
      • 2014-07-24 20533, 2014

      • navap
        CatQuest: Other than the colons, that's fine as a filename
      • 2014-07-24 20546, 2014

      • KRSCuan
        CatQuest: Write the files with a non-MS NTFS driver, e.g. under Linux.
      • 2014-07-24 20503, 2014

      • navap
        If it's nested within long folders it'll eventually get truncated I think
      • 2014-07-24 20505, 2014

      • KRSCuan
        You can't open them under Windows if they contain a prohibited char.
      • 2014-07-24 20520, 2014

      • CatQuest
        KRSCuan: I meant length not spesifically chars

        how do I edit (the attributes of) a work->recording relationship?

        nm, it seems I have to edit the recording instead of the work.
      • 2014-07-24 20522, 2014

      • warp
        if there is a work which represents the entire album, how should it be linked to a release? create a bunch of works for each recording and then have a recording -> work (recording) -> work (album) chain?
      • 2014-07-24 20522, 2014

      • Mineo
        I think that's how we do it for soundtracks
      • 2014-07-24 20543, 2014

      • CallerNo6
        and classical
      • 2014-07-24 20545, 2014

      • warp
        is there any userscript available to make that process easier? :)
      • 2014-07-24 20531, 2014

      • warp has probably asked for that before.
      • 2014-07-24 20531, 2014

      • CallerNo6 has no idea what the current best-practice workflows are
      • 2014-07-24 20524, 2014

      • Mineo
        at least the recording -> work part is pretty easy in the relationship editor

        and we cannot do order, right? it's just work A is part of work B, and that's it.

        In theory, the relationship order stuff added for series should be usable on other relations, I'd think?
      • 2014-07-24 20541, 2014

      • kepstin-laptop
        need some server code work tho
      • 2014-07-24 20505, 2014

      • kepstin-laptop would love to have order for stuff like work parts and medleys

      • 2014-07-24 20520, 2014

      • kepstin-laptop
        (THe first one should be #0, but that can't be set because server bugs)

        The latter.

        I’m not aware of any.
      • 2014-07-24 20548, 2014

      • kepstin-laptop
        the issue itself is kind of silly, it's just a case where the perl validation code thinks the string "0" is false :/
      • 2014-07-24 20507, 2014

      • chirlu`
        MBS-3375 is resolved code-wise, it only needs the relationship type(s) to marked as orderable.
      • 2014-07-24 20519, 2014

      • kepstin-laptop
        yes, I have read that ticket.

        when I was talking to bitmap and ian earlier, I thought the fix for my series number '0' bug was included in a pull request with some other general fixes, but I guess it wasn't.

        derwin: There's some rudimentary support for "live venues" in that you can add the places and make relationships that artists performed there on a given date and that releases/release groups can have "release event at" the places.
