toliveanddieinict: so, first thing to check is whether the information required is available to picard tagger script. Fortunately it is, https://picard-docs.musicbrainz.org/en/variable... says that there's a variable `_absolutetracknumber` which contains the number you want.

so that makes the tagger script pretty easy. you just need to use the $set function https://picard-docs.musicbrainz.org/en/function... to overwrite the tracknumber tag with the value of the _absolutetracknumber variable.

along with that, you probably want to $unset the discnumber and totaldiscs tags, and set totaltracks to %_totalalbumtracks%.

if you have any more specific questions or run into an issue, ask away.

lazybookwyrm[m] what do you mean by "what the release lists"?

Cover art lists different artists or if it's one streaming what the track artists are shown

lazybookwyrm[m] okay, got it

what about that formatting I mentioned, that the other entries follow? should i follow that as well?

and the title on Apple Music is `Beast in the Beauty (feat. SERRA) - Single`; should the title and release group follow that?

oh lol did that ping someone else

Sorry, I'm not sure what format you're talking about for the other entries, maybe you could explain that again.

For that Apple Music release, I'd set title to "Beast in the Beauty" and move the "feat. SERRA" to the artist field. You could leave out the "Single" part out of the title and just mark the release group as a single

lazybookwyrm[m] i linked it earlier, here it is again https://musicbrainz.org/recording/1d88a51b-b9f8...

oh how is guest24 a used nickname suddenly lol

The recording you linked looks good, is there something specific about it you're asking about?

yes; notice the track artist is 奏音69 feat. luz? thats <producer> feat. <vocalist>

should i follow the same formatting?

https://musicbrainz.org/release/2ff773ce-d261-4... is there any issue with this cover art?

The_Buhs: it usually takes a few minutes to show

It always says that

Got issues too and it's from the 27 sept. Maybe it needs a reupload?

Yeah, I didn't add it FWIW, I just saw that it wasn't showing up on listenbrainz when looking at my history

It will show all the covers I uploaded said that give it a few minutes and I'll show up

Guest87: I'd only use that format if the release credits it as such. If the release just has the album artist listed on each track, just use that

That was very helpful and gave me exactly what I wanted; thanks.

lazybookwyrm[m] okay, thanks! also; the release title is in english but the track title is japanese? should i change both to be jp?

or am i overthinking this lol

Leave it English. I don't really do much with Japanese stuff but from what I've heard it's common to mix the languages
