What does "scored by" refer to? "Music and lyrics by Leslie Bricusse, scored and conducted by Lionel Newman"
04:07:43 [Leftmost]
navap, the musical score was written by...
04:07:57 [navap]
How is that different from "music by"?
04:08:20 [Leftmost]
I suspect it means the actual transcription of the score.
04:09:27 [navap]
So would it be something like an arranger or orchestrator?
04:10:07 [Leftmost]
Not sure on that. Possibly arrangement, though I dunno.

* nikki giggles
04:52:24 [nikki]
I can't stop reading that "scored" as the verb where you use something sharp to make a line to make things easier to fold

is there anyone who knows if theres a alternative to musicip?
06:56:27 [kurros]
in what context?
06:57:02 [kurros]
there are dozens and dozens of acoustic fingerprinting companies
07:00:17 [triptec]
well I'm making a little project for school where I'd like to use something like libofa and beeing able to lookup in mb, but I can't seem to get a license key for musicdns/musicip..
07:02:38 [xiainx]
xiainx has joined #musicbrainz
07:03:20 [kurros]
ah. yeah I think licenses might be hard to come by since they changed their business model (again)
07:03:38 [triptec]
yeah, and is there anything similar?
07:04:21 [kurros]
not that would work with musicbrainz :/
07:04:51 [triptec]
okay, do u guys think it would be okay to use the same key as picard?
07:05:04 [triptec]
as it's non comersial and all
07:05:54 [kurros]
if its a personal use thing i dont think that would show up on anyones radar, if you aren't doing high volume/abusive stuff. i don't speak for MB though :)
07:06:29 [triptec]
no, I'm just making a online verion of picard more or less
07:06:43 [triptec]
advances webprogramming course in uni
07:06:47 [triptec]
advanced
07:06:58 [kurros]
how many queries are we talking about then?
07:07:27 [kurros]
sounds like a cool project
07:08:42 [triptec]
yeah, using libofa it's pretty simple.. but even though I get the course and stuff it would be nice if it would work for some future
07:10:41 [kurros]
i would maybe contact amplifind's licensing and let them know you are working on a web based version of musicbrainz picard and would like to use a unique key for it. maybe you'll get lucky.
07:10:42 [fatih]
fatih has joined #musicbrainz
07:13:09 [triptec]
yeah tried that a year ago when I got the idea
07:13:13 [triptec]
no luck
07:13:56 [triptec]
but the piucard key was easy to find and I can't see how they could see any difference
07:14:21 [kurros]
yeah. i really dont think it'd be a big deal for what you are doing
07:15:11 [nikki]
there are a couple of anonymous keys in http://ftp.musicbrainz.org/pub/musicbrainz/genpuid/keys.txt if you want one that isn't linked to anyone's account (assuming they still work, they should do)
07:15:57 [triptec]
I'll check it out, thanks.. I'll holla back in a few day a week to get some input;)

07:36:20 [luks]
I should really work more on this audio fingerprinting project :(
07:37:02 [luks]
after reading tons of papers, it seems that it's not that hard to write something that fits the needs of MB
07:39:00 [luks]
last.fm is for example using an almost direct copy of http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~yke/musicretrieval/
07:39:12 [luks]
and it seems to work well enough for them
07:40:53 [kurros]
are they sharing their fingerprints yet?
07:41:48 [luks]
they don't, as far as I know

08:02:58 [musicbrainz|warp]
lots of people here
08:03:15 [alastair_]
how many?
08:03:46 [alastairp]
I think there were ~150 at boston
08:04:12 [musicbrainz|warp]
I think it's somewhere between 50 and 100 now.
08:04:20 [alastairp]
morning there?
08:04:27 [musicbrainz|warp]
yes, 10:00am
08:04:48 [musicbrainz|warp]

hello

I have move from ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04 and now rubyripper is very slow when he is comparing the 2 track.wav. How to deal with this problem?
12:58:29 [Quartz]
I've tried 0.5.7 and the git version, both are very slow

echo nest releases a fingerprinter.
18:34:05 [ruaok]
* ruaok has been waiting for this.
18:38:20 [herojoker]
damn, the code generator relies on proprietary EN algorithms. Binaries provided, free to use, but not open source
18:53:08 [rexroom]
ya can't have everything

why can't inventors just say: hey, i have a good idea, let's share it with everyone :D
19:02:09 [alastairp]
ruaok: yeah!, I'm planning on playing with it today
19:02:41 [luks]
herojoker: because most inventions are driven by money?
19:02:49 [herojoker]
damn money ^^

Living is driven by money. It doesn't matter if the inventions are not, if the inventors still have to find something to keep themselves alive. 8)

It looks like when you cancel an "add release group" edit, the release group isn't deleted.
19:05:46 [fatih]
Is this a known bug, or is it a feature?
19:07:26 [nikki]
I think it's a known bug
19:10:16 [fatih]
This? http://bugs.musicbrainz.org/ticket/5151
19:12:14 [nikki]
looks like it
19:18:31 [srotta]
ruaok: Support incoming?
19:24:39 [nikki]
* nikki idly thinks they could have come up with an easier to remember acronym than ENMFP... they already mixed the letters up further down in the same post and they came up with it
19:27:17 [herojoker]
isn't the pronounciation natural?
19:27:19 [herojoker]
:p
19:28:05 [srotta]
Onomatopoetic distinterested grunt.

wow it's been a while since I've written c++
20:41:33 [musicbrainz|warp]
hah :)
