Welcome to AcousticBrainz!

The AcousticBrainz project aims to crowd source acoustic information for all music in the world and to make it available to the public. This acoustic information describes the acoustic characteristics of music and includes low-level spectral information and information for genres, moods, keys, scales and much more. The goal of AcousticBrainz is to provide music technology researchers and open source hackers with a massive database of information about music. We hope that this database will spur the development of new music technology research and allow music hackers to create new and interesting recommendation engines.

Picard 1.2 released
od autora Michael Wiencek

Version 1.2 of Picard has been released today, with some notable features and bug fixes.

As announced recently, PUID support is being removed from MusicBrainz on October 15. This release of Picard has followed suit by removing all support for AmpliFIND/PUID scanning and submission. AcoustID is now the default (and only) method of scanning files. If you’re currently using AmpliFIND as your fingerprinting system, then after installing Picard 1.2 you must enable AcoustID in your options, under the “Fingerprinting” section.

Those who have the Picard cover art plugin installed will likely want to remove it. Picard 1.2 has built-in support for downloading cover images from a variety of sources, without the need for a plugin. Please see the new configuration under Options -> Cover Art.

Something important to note for people who build/package Picard is that Python 2.6 is now the minimum required version.

Special thanks to Wieland Hoffmann, Laurent Monin, Lukáš Lalinský, and everyone who’s helped contribute/report bugs for this release!

Picard 1.0 released

Lukáš Lalinský announced the long-awaited release of Picard 1.0 today:

It took us a long time to get here, but I’m very happy to announce the release of Picard 1.0!

This version includes a new UI for viewing tags, some options have been rearranged and a number of bugs fixed. The file naming formats for single and various artist releases have been merged. If you were using a different format for various artist releases, Picard will upgrade the format automatically for you, but you might need to review the result. This version also comes with support for two audio fingerprinting solutions (AcoustID and AmpliFIND), but fingerprint scanning is disabled by default – you have to enable it and choose which one you want to use first.

Many thanks to Robert Kaye (ruaok), Phillipp Wolfer (outsidecontext), Michael Wiencek (bitmap), Chad Wilson (voiceinsideyou) and many many others who helped the project along the way from 2003 when it was started!

Nový jaikoz BETA
http://www.jthink.net/jaikoz/jsp/beta/start.jsp
Konecne poradny uklid s Discogs

New Features

* Added AutoCorrect Metadata from Discogs,this works works like AutoCorrect Metadata from Musicbrainz except it is for Discogs. So you can now match all those songs that Musicbrainz failed to find, even better Discogs contains lots of information that you may not have for your existing Musicbrainz matched songs such as genres and higher resolution cover art. Correct Songs from Discogs is release orientated rather than track orientated so it keeps your tracks together, Musicbrainz will be moving this way in the next release.
* Added Preferences/Remote Correct/Preferred media formats option, this should be set to represent the majority of your Music collection to get better matches. For example if your collection is 90% CD's just check the CD option, if its 60% CD, 35% Vinyl and 5% Digital Media check the CD and Vinyl options. Currently this option is only used when matching from Discogs but will be extended to support matching from Musicbrainz.
* Added support for completing the Disc No and Track Total fields from Discogs.
* Added Preferences/Remote Correct/Discogs/Replace if empty or no Musicbrainz Id , now that Discogs can be used to correct songs this allows you to specify that existing field. values should be overwritten unless that song already has a Musicbrainz Id.
* Added Edit/Set Value providing an easy way to set the all fields to a user entered value without needing to do a separate Copy and Paste

Užitečná věc pro greasemonkey DISCOGS=>MUSICBRAINZ http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/36376

ESTEN: Jestli si chces udelat bordel v tagách tak je i plugin na to aby picard tahal tagy z last.fm zbytek zde http://musicbrainz.org/doc/PicardQt/Plugins

Nejaky doporuceni na pluginy do picarda? Pouzivam jen plugin na album arty a jsem navysost spokojenej, ale vzdycky se rad necham poucit .)

INSEQUI: Jestli muzu doporucit tak po malých kouscích :) třeba jedna kapela ... jinak je v tom bordel pak a nechut neco tridit. Uvidis sam, ale už jsem trošku potřídil a je to znát.

manuálně by to pro mě nemělo cenu, mam 500GB audia to by byla práce na tři roky

FATBOZZ: doma installnu

INSEQUI: Dělá to skoro automaticky :) Známější kapely no problem. V MB je i spoustu českých kapel.

To vypadá zajímavě, že bych si uklidil audio data:)

Naprosto dokonalá věc k otagování věcí typu "Unknown artist - Untitled" který jste si přinesli od Vašeho neaudiofilního kamaráda
