        basically yes, ECAU will add a link to atisket cover art which, when clicked, will automatically load the cover art into the upload form (but you still have to manually submit). Saves a couple of clicks

        hi there, just wanted to ask about making track names in picard for vinyls become A1, A2 ect. currently filenames have 01 - artist - track name no matter what. any fix or ideas please?

        I have no idea whether Picard does, just saying that it could...
      • 2022-01-26 02653, 2022

      • derwin
        I have it configured such that, if the vinyl trackname is defined, it tags with both index and the non-numeric index.
      • 2022-01-26 02612, 2022

      • Goldmaster
        yeah just like that but for vinyls only or whatever musicbrainz says

      • 2022-01-26 02639, 2022

      • reosarevok
        It's almost certainly doable

      • Goldmaster
        thank you
      • 2022-01-26 02617, 2022

      • rdswift
        Goldmaster, is this for the metadata tags, or file naming (or both)?
      • 2022-01-26 02625, 2022

      • outsidecontext
        Goldmaster: %tracknumber% is numeric only, intentionally. But there is also the %_musicbrainz_tracknumber% variable with the track no. written as on the MB release, e.g. vinyl numbering
      • 2022-01-26 02640, 2022

      • outsidecontext
        Not sure we have this documented, rdswift?
      • 2022-01-26 02644, 2022

      • rdswift
        I don't think we have this documented (because I never knew about it). I'll add it.
      • 2022-01-26 02655, 2022

      • outsidecontext
        No, does not seem to be in the docs. So many hidden little things in the code ;)

      • 2022-01-26 02627, 2022

      • rdswift
        I believe so. I suggest trying it first on a copy of a few files to make sure that it does what you expect.

        when merging stuff, is it possible to do anything with the final product, like change track names or add references? [my current case is this: https://musicbrainz.org/edit/86685372 ] Or ... do I have to wait until the merge goes through and clean it up then?

      • Erin
        they duplicated each release in it's group, but changed the artist to the band name from the anime
      • 2022-01-26 02638, 2022

      • rdswift
        Goldmaster, that's odd because it works properly here. Are you matching your files up to a release retrieved from MusicBrainz or just using the metadata in the files (which won't make the %_musicbrainz_tracknumber% available).
      • 2022-01-26 02650, 2022

      • rdswift
        Another thing to check is that you don't have it included in a `$num()` function, which would interpret the 'A1' etc as non numbers and thus return zero padded to the specified length.

      • rdswift
        If you want the 'A1' padded to 'A01' then you would need to do something like $left(%_musicbrainz_tracknumber%,1)$num($substr(%_musicbrainz_tracknumber%,1,),2) instead.

        Then again, that will break for non vinyl numbering. You'd have to first test with `$firstalphachar(%_musicbrainz_tracknumber%)` to see if it returns "#" in which case it is not in vinyl numbering format.
