Archive / MusicBrainz meeting
- Where: Internet Archive, 300 Funston, SF
- When: October 22, 10:30am
- Who: invited people only (Ian McEwen, Oliver Charles, Kuno Woudt, Rob Derwin, Alex VanValin, Robert Kaye & archive staff)
Cover Art Archive
There are a few improvements/problems we should address with respect to the Cover Art Archive.
Node Downtime
For the IA, keeping the service always online is less important than securing good archiving. Which makes sense, but uploading data and then have it fail frustrates our users. Avoiding downtime or managing it so that our community knows about current problems would be good.
IA will create a URL for us to ping that says that CAA is healthy or not. Samuel will get back to us. --RobertKaye (talk) 21:45, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
Artwork deletion
See http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/MBS-4753. Every cover art uploaded to CAA stays forever on archive.org. This is problematic:
- if a private photo is uploaded by error, it won't be deleted when edit is canceled or image removed from MB
- archive.org is unnecessarily hosting questionable images that have been rejected by MB community (e.g. because of low quality or duplication).
- release merges can often cause moves, and those seem not to delete the old version, so there's duplicated data
We will fix the issues that occur on our side, but empty buckets will remain on the archive. The archive will not delete empty buckets.
Missing thumbnails
http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/CAA-23 --Nikki (talk) 15:48, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Incorrectly rotated thumbnails
http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/CAA-34 --Nikki (talk) 15:48, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Reject unsupported formats
http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/CAA-28 --Nikki (talk) 15:48, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Include image dimensions
http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/CAA-33 --Nikki (talk) 15:48, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Content-Length invalid for HEAD requests for artwork
http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/CAA-27 --Nikki (talk) 15:48, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Deleting empty buckets
We've got lots of empty buckets that need deleting.
Wrong media type
items are being created with the wrong mediatype (data/other, when they should be image)
CORS header
The stuff we need for uploading multiple images, PNG support and better errors. --Nikki (talk) 15:48, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
CDN
http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/CAA-26 : loading images could be faster.
Maximum image size
How To Add Cover Art claims the filesize limit is 15MB. However, we have 29 images larger than this, the largest of which is 33.5MB. If there is supposed to be a limit, then the IA haven't implemented it. (If there isn't, then we need to fix our documentation) --Nikki (talk) 17:40, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
There is no limit. We do need to fix our docs. --RobertKaye (talk) 21:34, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
GIF thumbnails
One of the dependencies for http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/MBS-4114 --Nikki (talk) 17:40, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
SSL

We're going to use the /download endpoint -- this should reduce the number of redirects and allow SSL. --RobertKaye (talk) 21:58, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
Metadata matching
We should talk about how we can work together to match the music that the archive has against MusicBrainz and how to feed missing metadata to MusicBrainz. (ingrestr & matchr) How can we work together to leverage the music that archive is collecting?
Future projects
Some future projects for us to think about:
- artist image archive
- music archive access for research purposes
