Like Breach for example, the first 4 songs are in the second "Breach" and the rest of the songs 5-13 are in the first album. Can anyone explain how this happened in Picard, and do I just have to resolve them manually in Picard? I know how to, but I'm just asking why this happens in the first place.
Hey! Having some issues today. Is it just me? Should I restart the computer or is there a server issue? The Musicbrainz website seems to be down for maintenence.
so i keep doing this weird thing where when i have a song stuck in my head i’ll sing it in my head but i’ll replace certain words with things that are in my life, or i’ll start saying the alphabet to the beat and replacing the words its so weird. does anyone else do this? if so, whats it called?
Hi,
Based on my web-project MusicBrainz Release Viewer I would like to share the IOS version of the viewer I have been working on recently:
MusiCards Release Viewer for iPhone
App Store link
MusiCards is a free visual MusicBrainz browser focused mainly on releases, credits and discographies. The app organises information into four vertically stacked “cards”:
The idea was to explore MusicBrainz data in a calmer, cleaner and more tactile way than a traditional database UI. Current features include:
The app is intentionally very “MusicBrainz-minded”: it never invents missing data, and incomplete metadata remains visible instead of being hidden.
This is my first iOS app, an experimental side project around MusicBrainz data and UI ideas. I designed the concept, interface and workflows myself, while most of the actual Swift programming was done by vibe coding with ChatGPT and Claude. Powered by MusicBrainz and the Cover Art Archive…
Questions and feedback is very welcome.
Best!
So I have amazing code edited from an original forum post. It does exactly what I want. It creates folders A/B/C then artist (with first letter first, so Bob Dylan instead of Dylan, Bob). Then it creates album folders.
It also completely removes "Various artists" folders for compilations. every artist has a "Single" folder. And if it's on a compilation, the track will be moved to the artist's single folder. for example, if "Bob Dylan - Lay, Lady, Lay" would be on a "best of the 60's" compilation, it gets nested under Bob Dylan - Singles, not under Various artists - Best of 60's >>>. Which what I much prefer.
The only problem I still have, is it creates separate artist folders for artists when they're featuring for example in my artist folders I would have:
Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan & Johnny Cash
Bob Dylan & The Bob Dylan Band.
However, I'd just like it to take the first primary artist, and all compile it under this artist, I don't need a "separate" artist for featurings. I have a lot of music like this, as a significant part of the music I listen to seems to be collaborative. How do I get my script to default to this? I can't figure it out. I was also thinking, maybe I should change Picard's Tagging system to give a separate slot for each artist so I can script it to only take the first primary artist on product level.
please note, I can't code and don't fully understand the script. It's base is from the Picard forum (Very old post). And I adjusted things with AI. I've tried building code from scratch but my brain just can't figure it out. Hopefully somebody can help me here, I would greatly appreciate it!

Hey, an artist released a song yesterday and it doesn't show up the cover. Once from a thread I've read that it was needed to be created at MusicBrainz, but the artist nor any songs is showing up from, when he already has songs in lastfm with covers.
Is there any other way lastfm extracts data?? what should I do?
(Sorry for bad english) I'm getting crazy over this, I have almost 2000 files of music and 400 had to look it up manualy. its the third time I have done it. EVERY TIME I CLICK ON ''SAVE'' ALL MY FILED GET DELETED. Am I missing something? are the files going somewhere I not seeing?
PLEASE HELP!
