Is there any way to find out what's happened to a release ID that's no longer recognised? I've got a 12 track album which has said ID, but all the other release have different numbers of tracks.

Maybe from the artist's edit list

It’s advised to take metadata directly from sources the artist/label provides, like streaming service credits or social media

Hi

Sorry I'm a bit lazy about it, but how should I create an alternate release of an existing one?
2026-03-30 08939, 2026
quinq
Should I just create a new release, and then somehow add a relationship of being alternate on the existing release?
2026-03-30 08950, 2026
quinq
Ok, I found the “release group” and I'm able to add a new release, it seems to be the way to go
2026-03-30 08935, 2026
reosarevok[m]
That would be the way, yes. You can reuse the tracklist too

I know... But LB's matching system is, alas, isn't so good. Like it might show a cover art for a bootleg album instead of correct single cover art

I mean, it does 99% of time but with one song it usually shows the cover for a real album of the artist in a bootleg version of which this track was included at

<wileyfoxyx[m]> "I know... But LB's matching..." <- friendly reminder that the much improved importer rob was working on is still a thing! iirc it just needs to be operationalized in LB when LB devs have more time
