Description Bastien Nocera 2008-05-28 00:52:37 UTC 
As per:
http://musicbrainz.org/doc/Database

MB can tell us the type of a release, using the MBE_AlbumGetAlbumType query.

Sound-juicer should allow changing that, and maybe allow different recording options for spoken word, interviews, and audio books, eg. a different path, and encoder (say Speex rather than Vorbis).

The backend can do that now:

2008-09-04  Bastien Nocera  <hadess@hadess.net>

	* libjuicer/sj-metadata-musicbrainz.c (mb_list_albums),
	(sj_metadata_musicbrainz_init), (sj_metadata_musicbrainz_finalize):
	* libjuicer/sj-metadata-musicbrainz3.c (make_album_from_release),
	(mb_list_albums):
	* libjuicer/sj-metadata.c (sj_metadata_helper_scan_disc_number):
	* libjuicer/sj-metadata.h:
	* libjuicer/sj-structures.h:
	* tests/mb-test.c (release_type_to_id), (metadata_cb), (main):
	- Move code to parse album titles into disc numbers to a common
	location for both musicbrainz backends, and fix valgrind errors
	(g_match_info_fetch() doesn't like having the string change from
	 underneath it)
	- Add a way to override the DiscID used, using the
	  MUSICBRAINZ_FORCE_DISC_ID envvar (MB3)
	- Fix leak of the disc ID (MB3)
	- Fix empty strings when we want them NULL (MB3)
	- Fix invalid memory access when getting the release date (MB3)
	- Add a few test DiscIDs to the metadata tester
	- Check whether a release is "Spoken Word" (Helps: #535181)
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2009-02-10 22:04:44 UTC 
I guess a combo for "Music" and "Audiobook" would generalise all of the different musicbrainz types nicely.  The question is what to do when audiobook is selected...  There was a bug where someone was using SJ to rip audio books but I can't find it or remember what the problem was...
