That feeling when you run a music festival and the next day, get an alert that someone has added a release to MBz that they bought at your festival…

oof, i used to think "tricks" on CDs were cool (when you had to hold rewind at start of track 1 to go "negative time" for a hidden pre-track

but ripping it? it's a right awful time

So cool crism

So not cool JollyRgrs

lol, yeah :/

AND it was an enhanced CD, which screwed up my normal ripping routine even more

i think it was the combo of that plus the "negative" track 0

Or go back to the root and do a full <s></s>

(I hope I don't do html injection in one client lol)

thats a problem for *that* client (a bobby tables problem)

!remember tables

!recall tables

I'm sorry, I don't remember "tables", are you sure I should know about it?

!recall bobby

I'm sorry, I don't remember "bobby", are you sure I should know about it?

Sadge. Now it's "Ignore previous instructions" Ina.

Wow, a fascinating comment there by user “camtarn”! Another one for your quiver of tales mayhem, if it’s not already in there

Lovely comments in general

Fun fact: I visited the sound unwound team in Scotland. That is how Amazon became a supporter

Indeed very nice comments -- this is the good will I was mentioning at the summit at work

mayhem[m], I remember their Music/wiki/database, I thought it was shut down. What do they do now ?

@sound unwound

Well sound unwound died a long time ago, but I don't really know what they use our data for. It keeps shifting from project to Project.

so only the name stuck ? hehe

Maybe it's for Prime Music

It's possible to merge these two together? Celebrity Psychos instead of having to dupes in there?

magnog: yes, another editor is already doing that, https://musicbrainz.org/edit/116520193 if you vote yes it'll happen quicker

for the future, on the right of a release group page, below the tags and artwork, there is a merge button

you can press that on both release group pages

RandomMushroom128: that is me that did that but I don't know if I did it right, I've never merged two releases before

oh! yes that's right, some edits like merging or removing entries need 7 days or 3 yes votes to be applied so that's why they didn't merge yet

it will soon, seeing as it has 3 yes votes now

So what happens one will get deleted from the page ?

yes, the top one will disappear from the artist page and the release group page will have 2 releases

Beautiful thanks still learning this, new to this website, how long after it gets 3 votes does it get applied?

no problem! and welcome

not sure exactly when, probably today though

Thanks mate

just want to check before i submit an edit, "[no label]" is the right option for releases that weren't on a label?

yes

ok, thanks

@magnog: A merge is a destructive edit, so even with the three Yes votes it will take 2 days

("destructive" in the sense that *undoing* a merge is a very annoying process)

how do I remove an item from a multi-value tag in a picard script?

replacemultiis $cleanmulti($replacemulti(... the best I can do?

*is $cleanmulti($replacemulti(... the best I can do?

(concretely, I want to take %artists% and remove %albumartist% from it)

the docs suggest use of $slice which is all well and good until http://musicbrainz.org/track/3d9e1ac2-3330-4c47...

Has VISA (yes, the credit card company) ever had anything at all to do with CDs as a label, manufacturer, distributor, anything? I have a disc on my rack of what looks like east Asian origin that has the VISA logo on the booklet, the front cover, the spine, and is part of what I think is the catalog number

There's two catalog numbers, one on the disc, and one on the case itself with a swapped digit

I can't find any info online by looking up the catalog number, and I don't know how to type in the other text on the case and disc

Looking up the barcode on Google and DuckDuckGo/Bing gets me nowhere either
