        aerozol: I see sometimes kid3 pulls stuff for the Performer field like Vocal|Someone|Vocal|Someone else when pulling from musicbrainz. should I add it in a field like that?

        There's lots of relationships you can add to the original songs - have a look! For instance I think there's a 'mashup of...' recording > recording relationship
      • 2026-04-10 10015, 2026

      • aerozol[m]
        I'm not familiar with the song you're editing but check out some of the examples on that doc I linked above, you might be able to copy from an example there (if it is similar)
      • 2026-04-10 10058, 2026

      • MikelPrez[m]
        I think I'm going to go with "produced material that was sampled in / contains samples by"
      • 2026-04-10 10026, 2026

      • notthejohn[m]
        aerozol: there indeed is a mashup recording->recording relationship! 🙂
      • 2026-04-10 10040, 2026

      • MikelPrez[m]
        there's a remixer / remixed one but that would go if the artist was NewJeans and I'd add 2AT as remixer but that doesn't make sense really because it's 2AT's song
      • 2026-04-10 10030, 2026

      • MikelPrez[m]
        in case I'm related type: Artist
      • 2026-04-10 10041, 2026

      • MikelPrez[m]
        there's also edit of and samples if related type recording
      • 2026-04-10 10006, 2026

      • MikelPrez[m]
        that seems more appropriate
      • 2026-04-10 10020, 2026

      • MikelPrez[m]
        but 2AT published the track as 2AT x NewJeans x Owl City
      • 2026-04-10 10030, 2026

      • MikelPrez[m]
        but then that was their way of dealing with bandcamp I guess

        Someone named lioncat3 applies a loads of edits into my entry

        Just woke up to see the alerts in my email

      • MikelPrez[m]
        btw. any way to look up by trackname artist? I'm trying to add samples Fireflies by Owl City, searching Fireflies yields a lot of results, searching Fireflies Owl City yields a lot of erroneously filled Fireflies (Owl City) releases

        I need y’all votes on their edits for this one because I’m pretty sure the video isn’t really a music video though
      • 2026-04-10 10018, 2026

      • hypeventure[m]
        Anyone who ask for information: I’m the artist of this release, so go ahead, I’m ready to provide
      • 2026-04-10 10030, 2026

      • MikelPrez[m]
        oh the field takes musicbrainz.com/recording urls that's good enough (would be good to document it)
      • 2026-04-10 10023, 2026

        Also moving kireina ep spotify link to release level, i say its correct

        Lioncat6 @lioncat6:matrix.org: can you look at hypeventure's comments above? It seems like adding a new release for the 'music video' is questionable, especially with artist intent taken into account?

        if picard doesnt have a release in database, does it make up the tags based on available info? i want to use it in a project

      • outsidecontext[m
        will13337: Picard will show existing tags in the files. Inside Picard there are two main panes. On the left you have files that are not matched to any data on MusicBrainz. There you just see the tags from the files + any not yet saved changes. On the right side it shows data loaded from MB. If you match a file there you will see the file metadata and any proposed changes to it.
      • 2026-04-10 10045, 2026

      • will13337[m]
        i want to use it in my project, so it would be programmatic access rather than as a gui
      • 2026-04-10 10012, 2026

      • will13337[m]
        im saying if the release isnt in the musicbrainz database, does it assume information from filenames?
      • 2026-04-10 10020, 2026

      • will13337[m]
        or does it just suggest no changes
      • 2026-04-10 10007, 2026

      • outsidecontext[m
        You can configure it so it will prefill the title and tracknumber from filename if the file itself does not have those tags
      • 2026-04-10 10040, 2026

      • outsidecontext[m
        What kind of project is that? Picard is not really build for being used purely programatically.
      • 2026-04-10 10017, 2026

      • will13337[m]
        basically, plugin to check if the music has already been downloaded, if not, rename the files appropriately and add to the collection
      • 2026-04-10 10031, 2026

      • outsidecontext[m
        a plugin for Picard itself?
      • 2026-04-10 10019, 2026

      • will13337[m]
        plugs in to torrent/p2p stuff, its actually just monitoring download folders standalone
      • 2026-04-10 10017, 2026

      • outsidecontext[m
        ok, I see. not quite sure how this would fully work. Picard has some command line options to automate some things, e.g. load files and perform a lookup. But this is still primarily meant for semi-automatic stuff. You still have the GUI, and you can review the results before saving for example.
      • 2026-04-10 10014, 2026

      • will13337[m]

      • outsidecontext[m
        have you looked into beets? It might be more suited for this scenario
      • 2026-04-10 10012, 2026

      • will13337[m]
        yeah i was originally looking at beets, i guess ill be doing that

        I'm not a beets expert, but it can do things like watching folders and autotag the files in there.
