Hello. is there any way to add releases for which I don't have a track listing, just so it's known they exist?
00:14:53 [kyan]
I speak specifically of http://chokapix63.keuf.net/musiques-f12/dj-set-33-t157.htm
00:15:53 [kyan]
The imageshack images are giving 404s. I got the front cover from the tineye cache, but the back cover I havn't been able to find (despite a large amount of searching).
00:24:16 [kyan]
On another topic, since noöne seems to have the answer to the first one: I'm working on a directory of album art for MB. Is there a way to get it used? http://futuramerlin.com/mbaa
00:24:38 [kyan]
See http://futuramerlin.com/mbaa/47368814-9952-4671-a899-f0a70d22d0f3.png for an example
00:24:44 [kyan]
Thanks
00:30:02 [kyan]
No ideas?
00:30:05 [kyan]
;-)
00:40:09 [kyan]
ah well. seems that idea didn't go over too well ;-)
01:09:18 [kyan]
ok. anyone have thoughts on it yet?
01:09:58 [kyan]
guess not. :-(
01:11:10 [nikki]
used how?
01:53:36 [navap]
One of the tracks on this live release is a track of the orchestra tuning up, who should the track artist be? The rest of the tracks are credited to the composer and [dialog] (for speeches by the MC).
01:57:02 [alastairp]
surely it's by the orchestra? ;)
01:57:50 [navap]
hmm that makes sense :)
01:59:15 [navap]
heh
01:59:39 [alastairp]
is it traditional to use [dialog] rather than actually put the MC in?
02:00:42 [navap__]
navap__ has joined #musicbrainz
02:01:05 [navap__]
Not sure, it had the arranger set for all the track artists at first which I then changed to the composer.
02:01:25 [navap__]
The MC is done by two people and on one of the MC tracks it's actually four people
02:01:38 [alastairp]
oh, good
02:01:45 [nikki]
I use [dialogue] for MC tracks on concerts I enter
02:01:56 [alastairp]
right
02:03:10 [navap]
.
02:03:19 [navap]
hmm this is odd.
02:03:38 [navap]
The last message I got in irssi on this server was "is it traditional to use.."
02:03:54 [alastairp]
oops
02:04:23 [navap]
What the hell?
02:04:26 [navap]
Oh there we go.
02:04:33 [navap]
It all came at once.

In NGS a track's name can differ from its recording's name, but when creating a relationship it will always be the recording's name that is shown right?
06:30:03 [nikki]
shown where when creating a relationship?
06:30:35 [navap]
Anywhere the relationship is displayed.
06:31:03 [nikki]
I would assume so, since it probably won't have any context to know which track name to use
06:31:32 [navap]
Yeah that's what I thought.

nikki: Oops. Sorry.
11:54:10 [kyan]
I went to something else after saying 'guess not'. When I say used, I mean displayed in MB release pages like the Amazon ones sometimes are.
11:54:30 [kyan]
(Maybe when there isn't artwork in Amazon, it could be used as a fallback.)
11:56:18 [kyan]
(okay, this is the original question: I'm working on a directory of album art for MB. Is there a way to get it used? http://futuramerlin.com/mbaa

kyan: To use your album art directory in MB you need to follow this procedure: http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Proposals#Special_Procedures
13:01:55 [kyan]
Ok. thanks.
13:12:33 [kyan]
Would that change or add an advanced relationship?
13:18:26 [kyan]
Have I done this correctly? http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Proposal:Futuramerlin.com_Album_Artwork
13:19:05 [kyan]
I wasn't sure what the proposal number should be.
