[WS] Discogs ALL, Uses Discogs API sevice Options

[Pufas]

Hi Pufas,

The script misses all Credits, individual track Credits and Notes on this one for some reason...?

Yea, 1.21 won't work with any other release not just this one. I guess best option for now is to use v1.20 .src & v1.21 actions until I fix this mess.

Sure, no problem, could you please re-post the 1.20 .src here?

v1.22 is out.

That's because discogs gives only "Accepted" version of a release as XML:

Thanks for the 1.22 update, you are doing a marvelous job!

OK, but I'm not sure what you mean by "Accepted". For me this "Kaleidoscope" release has the same level of Acceptance (This release data is new to the Discogs database and has not received a vote yet.) as this "Röd" release, but "Kaleidoscope" works fine with your script and with "Röd" it only grabs the top and VINYLTRACK. Is there maybe an error in this Discogs release? Since it's a CD release there should be no VINYLTRACKs, right? What do you think? What am I missing?

A marvelous job is truly an understatement. Pufas has been relentless at fixing bugs & tweaking. Furthermore, when all these picky people come in (like me) requesting changes and additions he hasn't refused a single request & has implemented every one.

Great job, Pufas! I really appreciate your hard work.

Only last version of "accepted" release will show up in XML (or original submission).
Last version of release (does not matter if it is "accepted" or not) is shown in the webpage.
In that Rod release
original submision (shown in XML)
updated version (shown in webpage)
are classified as "Needs Vote" and thus "original submision" is shown in xml.

In Tiesto release this is last "accepted" version (shown in XML) and last updated that "needs vote" (shown in webpage).
At least that's how I imagine it. I hope I explained well enough.

And that VINYLTRACK should disappear after you apply actions (!).

OK, thanks for the explanation, now I (almost) understand why... Now I only have to wait for those new changes in that release to be "Accepted"...

thank you

Hi again,

This one uses SONGWRITER as AUTHOR tag (as well as Written By, but they are without links).

Get the feeling that there will always be releases that don't work because of how Discogs is working...

Attached you find the Script and Actions for the instruments CELLO, MELODICA, SAXOPHONE, TROMBONE, VIOLA and VIOLIN, I hope you can use them.

I'll check it out tomorrow, because I have to do some studies today.

Added those new fields and posted v1.23.

Btw, my is script is getting fat & slow, so I'm planing to to move most of processing from websource to actions, and move all those credit things to MUSICIANCREDITS, and leave few like REMIX, COMPOSER, DJMIX... this means basically redo whole script... when I have time...

new opportunities - the good news)
I also add Scratches to release credit part, and Rap to per track credits.
I that would minimally alter your script, making my changes with additional actions - and it makes me think about upgrading hardware))

Few small bugs: Preformer field and style error for this release. And remains a comma after release credits like DJMIX (of course after action) - worked, if we apply action twice (?).

For now I think I'll stop updating this script, and continue supporting new version. I'm planing to finish new script tomorrow.
