doctor who audio drama editing is so much fun /s

zayd: in the cover art settings for Picard, you can change the file naming for images, including adding a directory with a slash

UltimateRiff[m]: i'm not seeing exactly how that would be done, it seems pretty weird with how it takes the option and in most cases will just use what i put in as a prefix and discard the slash

odd, my current setting (which also uses the comment, when present) is `Artwork/$if2(%coverart_comment%,%coverart_maintype%)`, and it consistently puts it in a folder called "Artwork"...

it's under Cover Art > Save cover images as seperate files > Use the following file name for images

(in Options, of course)

I wanted to say that the saxophone solo is the chorus of September. Can I make it more precise?

That sounds like maybe the work itself quotes "September"?

well, it is mainly a cover of 「樹海の神秘 」

should I make it an arrangement then?

* 「樹海の神秘 」with _September_ mixed in as a solo.

Ah, gotcha

Hmm, not sure in that case tbh. If it's a big enough difference it could be a new work, but it might not be (how prominent is that solo?)

the track is 7 minutes and the September chorus is played once. Just enough to be noticeable.

there might be more Works references that I don't know

s/Works/works/, s/references/referenced/

Oh, ok. But just on the cover, not in the original?

Then maybe what you have is the least bad optio

xlosvs: 😅🥲

You might have come in a little hot on that one!!

Hate doing no votes...

Sorry

Alg, I was using what I thought was logical. Main name of cover (definitely need to get a copy of it to see) and is what discogs uses. Felt it would be like saying have you seen Rachel Talalay’s Heaven Sent

I guess that feels simpler, but MB likes to dig into the good stuff… These are the relevant guidelines btw: https://beta.musicbrainz.org/doc/Style/Specific...

I suppose we tend to collect series/character data in “series” types

UltimateRiff[m]: is there any way to get it to store the front image as "cover" in the release root? never used naming scripts in this way

is ropdebee still around d

I sent him a dm about his addon but never got a response

zayd: in theory yes, you could probably make the new directory conditional on cover art type, but I don't know if there's a way to only do the first front (some releases might have multiple front covers, say for multiple mediums)

UltimateRiff[m]: finally got it how i wanted it after messing with the script a bit: $if($eq(%coverart_maintype%,front),cover,Artwork/%coverart_maintype%)
