Yeah, I do use EPs on stuff that feel like EPs even if they are not explicitly claimed as such

As long as there's no suggestion that EP is not right :)

(or that the artist disagrees)

Hi! When I add the cover art of a Single CD, which "type" checkboxes are the correct ones for the little "flap" that often contains the barcode. For example: https://ia801204.us.archive.org/34/items/mbid-c...

the small stripe is the "spine". What is the rest? "Back"? Should I then select "spine" and "back" at the same time for that scan?

huh, i don't normally see that as a separate scan, i normally see the whole insert scanned flat.

(which I add as front+spine+back, so i think spine+back makes sense for this)

I'd like to keep the "front" separate, so it can be used as "cover art" for example in beets / navidrome

yeah, i normally make one image that's just the front for applications to use as the frontiest image, and another which is the complete scan.

(and yes, that is an extra step when postprocessing the scan, but one I'm willing to take :) )

mh, from a completeness point of view your approach has a good point. I guess I'll do that from now on. Thanks!

fwiw, "frontiest" is the technical term for the first image labeled 'front', which is the one that will be used as the identifying image for a release by most software ;)

Yes, I already figuered that out. thanks :D
