        Great work pointing this out yellowhatpro! Unfortunately there were some complications while using the jaudiotagger.

      • yellowhatpro
        Ohh so does that mean we can't use any JAVA library for metadata tagging ??
      • akshaaatt
        Not as per my previous encounter with it yellowhatpro

        Hello everyone, I am Aaditya an undergraduate student. I found the MusicBrainz-server project interesting and want to know more about it and contribute on it.

        Hi asubedy! I've noticed you helping me with the mb revamp project. If you need some help with the mb server setup, you can ask here. Also, bitmap, yvanzo and reosarevok are the active maintainers and leads for the mb server, so they can probably help you with any queries you might have. Welcome!
      • mayhem
        mooooooooooin!
      • our DocSprint week has arrived!
      • I'm both trepidacious and mildly excited about this -- I think I will sleep better after this week.
      • we're going to be using this doc to coordinate our efforts: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hr6BAZ11KY4...
      • typical metabrainz style. jump right in!
      • zas: ping
      • akshaaatt
        Thanks for sharing mayhem!
      • mayhem
        jump on in. I think you probably have a good sense for what to add to the list of things that have not been documented enough. :)
      • akshaaatt
        Haha yaass!
      • mayhem we seem to have some project documentation on readthedocs but acousticbrainz, musicbrainz don't seem to have them on readthedocs. Any reason for this?
      • mayhem
        I'm guessing because those teams have not decided to use it. MB has the Wiki it uses for documentation. AB just hasn't gotten the love it needs.
      • alastairp
        mostly because musicbrainz predates readthedocs by decades
      • acousticbrainz has docs on rtd?
      • mayhem
        doesnt sound like it.
      • alastairp
        (morning)
      • mayhem
        ah, it does. good. akshaaatt ^
      • akshaaatt
        Morning!
      • asubedy
        Thanks akshaaatt . Yes I have been working on the MB revamp. I wanted to ask few questions:... (full message at https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/downlo...)
      • mayhem heads to the office.
      • akshaaatt
        Thanks for the share alastairp! We can definitely improve the acousticbrainz repo on GitHub.
      • Currently I am not sure whether we can access the recently added cover arts without making a database query but bitmap might know more about this asubedy
      • Also mayhem, bookbrainz has their own organization on GitHub which is separate from metabrainz. Any history behind it?
      • asubedy
        Oh ok, I will wait for bitmap's reply then 😄
      • alastairp
        lucifer: hi, let me know when you're around and we can spend some time on the planning doc for pythonbrainzes
      • mayhem
        Yes, it was originally a community project, before we brought it in as one of our own. One of the conflict points with the previous team was how GitHub should be organized.
      • alastairp
        I'll be here all day tomorrow, but can spend an hour or so today helping to get an outline going
      • akshaaatt
        Oh, sounds interesting!
      • mayhem
        And not all of that has been resolved yet. Might be a good thing for monkey to do this week.
      • akshaaatt
        Has monkey returned yet btw?
      • CatQuest
        ha. I had a"remind people" about the docunary week
      • reminder in calendar
      • i see it won't be needed
      • !m mayhem
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, mayhem!
      • mayhem
        akshaaatt: no sign yet
      • akshaaatt
        Sigh, I miss him!
      • lucifer
        alastairp: Hi! sounds good. I am around now.
      • CatQuest
        akshaaatt: same
      • i'd very much like to move bookbrainz documentation to metabrainz wiki
      • give it it's own mainspace?
      • alastairp
        lucifer: I started writing some notes in the doc. I'm not sure if we should focus on detail or breadth first - perhaps breadth first?
      • CatQuest
        thne it can be trasncluded to the site and have some formatting bells and wistles added
      • lucifer
        alastairp: sure breadth sounds good.
      • also we should discuss how to organize docs. github/rtd/guidelines repo etc.
      • alastairp
      • monkey
        Hi everyone! I am indeed back (if a bit jetlagged)
      • lucifer
        right so let's finalize that?
      • hi monkey!
      • akshaaatt
        lucifer a little off the track but I was wondering if we could have the `most listened songs` on lb this week/month. A section like the one we have for Recent listens
      • Welcome monkey!💯
      • lucifer
        akshaaatt: you mean sitewide top artists/recordings/releases for week/month etc?
      • akshaaatt
        Yes!
      • lucifer
        we have those apis already. ui is pending.
      • akshaaatt
        Wonderful! Let me know if I could help set it up
      • yyoung[m]
        alastairp: Is it possible to delete AcousticBrainz submissions? I tagged my files wrong and now it's like a mess.
      • CatQuest
        heeey yyoung[m] long time no siege!
      • yyoung[m]
        CatQuest: Hey!
      • akshaaatt
        Also lucifer, Feed seems to be broken on prod in lb, if that wasn't known already
      • CatQuest
        ok so. where do i write about how to add instruments
      • lucifer
        akshaaatt: sure i have an unfinished branch, i don't remember where but was stuck at something i'll rebase and share it with you.
      • akshaaatt
        Thanks!
      • yyoung[m]
        CatQuest: I've been keeping an eye on MB, but haven't got much time to work on it during the semester, now it's winter vacation :)
      • lucifer
        i'll look into the feed issue
      • CatQuest
        :D we're ust out of chrismas vacation, winter vacation is nextmonth
      • akshaaatt
        Thanks lucifer!
      • CatQuest
        although that *would* explain the sudden influx of indians today 🤔
      • wait no, yy is chinese
      • sudden influx of indians= still a mystery
      • akshaaatt
        Indians are everywhere CatQuest 😂👌
      • CatQuest
        :DDD
      • even in me, since we're indo-european :D (probably)
      • akshaaatt
        Wonderful!
      • CatQuest
        yes
      • mera nam CatQuest hi
      • hi/he
      • i forget
      • i should leanr how to say that in other indian langs as well
      • akshaaatt
        Wow. Pro at everything!
      • alastairp
        yyoung[m]: no, we didn't add the ability to delete. the idea was that if there were duplicate submissions then we can identify that one is wrong. Our similarity index should be able to help with that
      • yyoung[m]
        alastairp: OK, but with only 2 submissions (1 incorrect, 1 correct) it can't identify the correct one, right?
      • alastairp
        that's right. 3 is the minimum to be able to identify bad items
      • don't worry - I'm positive that you're not the first person to submit bad items to AB

        MBS-12158: Tidal now has a free tier in the US, it shouldn't be autoselected to streaming page anymore https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-12158
      • reosarevok
        So, it's all free-with-ads in the US *but* still paid only elsewhere
      • Not sure if we should automatically select *both* types...
      • yyoung[m]
        alastairp: One more question, Picard doesn't seem to allow duplicate submissions, how does that work? I didn't find an option to fill my own API key, so is it using a universal key?
      • alastairp
        yyoung[m]: what do you mean duplicate submissions in picard?

      • CatQuest
        reosarevok: it's stil la "streaming page" right?
      • i don't really understand the diff betwehen "strema for free and "streaming page" tbh
      • reosarevok
        Well, "streaming page" is supposed to not be free :)
      • (generally, to require a subscription)
      • PrathameshG joined the channel
      • CatQuest
        well I mean
      • dosnt most things require this? the only "free streaming" i cna see is bandcamp
      • i don't actually consider "yo ucna "strema for free" (with ads/only in this country/if you sign up/with acreditcard/etc) to be "free streaming"
      • reosarevok
        Well, most people would consider "free with ads" free :)
      • I mean, YouTube is also free with ads and almost everybody considers that free AFAICT :)
      • CatQuest
        visual ads, sure
      • audible ones. fuck no
      • uh
      • i forget that YT has ads becase i block thse
      • alastairp
        lucifer: how does that list look to you now? is that enough for you to start with today? anything else you want to discuss?
      • yyoung[m]
        alastairp: Using the same file to submit again
      • It seems after submitting the wrong information, I can't use submit Picard to submit the right ones. I can use acousticbrainz-gui, but submitting multiple times only result in a single submission entry
      • PrathameshG has quit
      • reosarevok
        Do we have any up-to-date "how to get started contributing to MeB" page?

      • CatQuest
        asubedy: you should try to configure your client so that it doesnt post links to text but posts all the lines
      • if it's code or whatnot use a pastebucket liek paste.ee
      • github has aapste bucket too
      • alastairp
        yyoung[m]: acousticbrainz-gui has a config file which won't submit the same exact file page more than once. I don't know if picard has a similar mechanism
      • reosarevok
        yvanzo, bitmap: we should think about what we want to do re: MB docs during the docsprint
      • CatQuest is documenting instrument work
      • But we should figure out what is missing / should be improved elsewhere :)
      • mayhem
        woah, we got a monkey!
      • asubedy
        CatQuest: Oh alright I quoted my message, I guess that posted a link to the message.
      • CatQuest
        asubedy: no problem. irc is very.. not fancy. matrix or whatver bridge you're using has many more features :)
