NOW I remember why I stopped editing on MusicBrainz ... It's so cumbersome especially when the physical disks one has don't have anything to work from. I've been playing with the 20 disks of the '30 Years of Pop' collection of which only a few appear in Discogs and even less in MusicBrainz. At least I have the original disk set, but working through them is going to take some time. Step one has been to install Tampermonkey into Firefox so I can run a UserScript to import Discogs records into MusicBrainz. Something I don't think exsisted last time. But I still need to manually process a lot of things like linking each artist to their corrrect ID and on a couple of disks, the existing running times did not actually match the media. And it does help if you clone between the correct machine before trying to rescan on that machine. Now the lastest metadata is on the nextcloud library as well as in plex on the media server. Just been strugging with the one disk I did not link from discogs but should have and I now have two id's for the one disk. |
