        Do you think this edit note is a bit verbose? https://musicbrainz.org/edit/90927151
      • 2022-07-05 18610, 2022

      • atj
        I find it hard to explain the concepts / guidelines succinctly
      • 2022-07-05 18659, 2022

      • atj
        to be honest, given they've been an editor for ~2 years and only submitted 130 edits it probably wasn't worth the effort.

      • 2022-07-05 18656, 2022

      • atj
        derwin: can you release a track on beatport called "original mix" please?
      • 2022-07-05 18624, 2022

      • derwin
        that original mix thing is a desecration
      • 2022-07-05 18646, 2022

      • derwin
        atj: no, I'm going to call it "Original Mix (Original Mix)" so it'll be "Original Mix (Original Mix) (Original Mix)" on beatport
      • 2022-07-05 18602, 2022

      • atj
        it's "(Original Mix)" all the way down
      • 2022-07-05 18612, 2022

      • derwin
        as one can see on itunes, the tracks are not named with (Original Mix) anywhere but the stupid auto beatport crap

      • derwin
      • 2022-07-05 18655, 2022

      • derwin
        so... who is going to remove all that crap? :(
      • 2022-07-05 18613, 2022

      • atj
        I will, using the tracklist parser and vim :)
      • 2022-07-05 18621, 2022

      • derwin
        yeah lol, that's how I'd do it
      • 2022-07-05 18632, 2022

      • derwin
        I bet there could be a really depressing report called "beatport releases that have way too much Original Mix"
      • 2022-07-05 18635, 2022

      • atj
        the fact it was submitted with a UAE iTunes link seems somehow fitting
      • 2022-07-05 18607, 2022

      • atj
        explaining how recordings work in MB is pretty difficult
      • 2022-07-05 18622, 2022

      • derwin
        I'm still tripped out that discogs tried to do recordings and then just... abandoned it
      • 2022-07-05 18602, 2022

      • 2022-07-05 18628, 2022

      • CatQuest
        also doesn't the latest beatport import actually strip the "(original mix)" thing?
      • 2022-07-05 18629, 2022

      • reosarevok
        There's a jesus2099 script that has among others a find and replace with regexes widget for the tracklist page
      • 2022-07-05 18631, 2022

      • reosarevok
        I love that one

        It also probably paints half the website pink, but luckily you can pick what bits you want :D
      • 2022-07-05 18637, 2022

      • derwin
        the beatport importer does, yes.
      • 2022-07-05 18624, 2022

      • CatQuest
        why would anyone import from beatport (or anywhere) withouth an import script :D

        .. when trying ot look at the last 3 tracks on https://www.beatport.com/release/toolroom-ibiza-2… i get 500 error :?
      • 2022-07-05 18601, 2022

      • atj
        the tracks are probably too long and break the site
      • 2022-07-05 18650, 2022

      • CatQuest
        huh

      • 2022-07-05 18655, 2022

      • atj
        I think this another example of how digital labels often aren't labels

        OK... am I dumb or is this a bug... I have (well... now "had") files with embedded cover art. I set Options > Tags to "Clear existing tags" AND "Keep embedded images when clearing tags". I also deactivated the cover art providers (because I didn't want new ones pulled and overwrite the existing), and it still deleted the cover art from the files... am I missing something here? Unfortunately the right click menu on the cover
      • 2022-07-05 18658, 2022

      • tarulia
        art to keep the current isn't present when there's no new cover art found...
      • 2022-07-05 18637, 2022

      • tarulia
        OK turns out I may be dumb and should have checked this before typing... the covers are actually still in the files, Picard just clears the preview in the bottom right after writing for some reason

        I'm sorry but I always forget. If an artist records a different version of a song from the album version (in this case, an acoustic version) for a TV music show and this gets released as a youtube video (at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuzP1qBSelk with 44 seconds of presentation at the beginning). Should I add that as a standalone recording? or single? also, should I use the real song length as length? or the video length?
      • 2022-07-05 18611, 2022

      • antlarr
        I would use standalone recording and the real song length (which is the video length minus 44 seconds) but I prefer to ask and be sure

        so... this tracklist is just completely wrong. for example track 18 is "Wouldn't You Like to Be a Hoe" by DJ Slugo

        any thoughts on how I should actually be entering this into mb? like what I should do with track 18?
