let us talk about how DS9 is the best Trek and anyone who disagree is in fact factually wrong and most likely has Justin Timberlake's haircut.

DS9 was super good when I actually sad down and watched it

chermobylae, clearly you're wrong. DS9 was great and all, but it did not have: Patrick Stewart, Brent Spiner, Michael Dorn.

bitmap: Do you have a working version of the batch-add performance of script?

2014-03-21 is broken and userscripts.org has been down/flaky for a while.

Hi, I am not sure about adding a discogs link the album https://musicbrainz.org/release/86d48734-d74b-4...

The album on discogs is by a different label than which I used, magnatune

Link?

Should I still add the following link http://www.discogs.com/Fran%C3%A7ois-Couture-QA...

Magnatune is an online music shop.

I don't think it can count as a label.

Yes, but they do release albums

Cuan: Some online music shops are also labels. I don't know Magnatune well enough to know.

Regardless.

The Discogs entry is a CD, a physical product, while the Magnatune one is a "digital media" release.

So even if they were the same label, they're not the same MB release.

(So no, you shouldn't add that link.)

Ok, got it, thanks Freso

Cuan: IIRC Magnatune operates mostly as a label

Or at least used to

http://magnatune.com/info/plan "we are a record label, so we only sign artists of high quality, who pass both our quality assessment, and the assessment of our peer-review board"

Seem all right then.

I might have partially mixed them up with Jamendo too.

They used to also sell physical media but that went away long ago

personally i loved babylon 5

For a cat you duck well (I know lame joke but could not resist 😀 )

😸

I think my IRC client didn't support those character until a version ago.

Or maybe it's Qt that had problems with them.

So, next question. I have a double cd where each cd has it's own upc according to magnatune

But the barcode field is on the release level so should I add both in the same field?

Do you have the CD case?

Unfortunately not, I am cleaning up the barcode field and ran into this.

Often those have a third UPC for the set

Ah, which is not listed in magnatunes sqlite db. I'll remove [none] for now and mention we need someone to retrieve it from the case.

thx

as much as we like to complain about our search. let me for the thing say that our search ROCKS compaired to a lot of other music database type things. for example resident advisor's, discogs', beatport's, (junodownload's isn't too bad) etcetera

Not to mention anything that uses Google Site Search.

KRSCuan: indeed

KRSCuan: The empty artist credit is a cache problem. It’s right in the replicated database.

Guess it's time to actually file that ticket now?

Don’t know. There are a lot of problems with stale caches.

I sometimes wonder whether caching is even worth the trouble.

I fixed it by making an edit to the artist (http://musicbrainz.org/edit/28205492), which causes the cache entry to be deleted/replaced.

So I assume the credit re-appeared on track 27 because I did this edit to Crooked I: http://musicbrainz.org/edit/28183310

Well possible.

Okay, now I have nothing to report. But it's a known error then.

Well, maybe not what exactly caused the cash to fail just on those two credits.
