Post by Titanium » 13 Sep 2007, 01:00

Are the SEB songs, albums, artists in the SEB 1-180, and D selection in all caps? Thanks. I'm a perfectionist when it comes to labeling songs so...yeah.

Sure that would be useful too. But how about the files themselves, are they in all caps?

By files, I guess you mean those you got from mu-mo?

On the back of the cd's, as far as I know, on SEB's they are in all caps. I don't have all SEB's, but yea...

Also I myself use normal capsing-rules for tagging my mp3's. Capitalize Each First Letter Of A Word, and stuff. ;P

I believe they're writing that as some mimic of the way the "velfarre" name is normally written.

Anyway, Hi-NRG write the names of their releases in lower case on their site. For the simple fact that WRITING IN ALL CAPS LOOKS TERRIBLE, I'm inclined to use sensible capitalisation for EB song names!

I always capitalize every word in the title - even words like "the", "a" and others that normally aren't capitalized in song titles.

And yeah, "velfarre" is written in lowercase because that's how it's written in their logo.

Heh I always hated all caps, and the reverse order of the Artist / Track title, that the Japanese system uses (yeah might not be the topic here, but saying!)

Hence I had to do the database differnetly than the others that were around at the time :P European weird system for the win...

Actually, the thing I hate most of all about that reversed TRACK NAME/ARTIST all-caps system is that people submit those to CDDB and FreeDB!!!

So I buy an EB CD, go to rip it to my PC, and have to spend ages retyping the track names because they've been entered wrong :( And that's in spite of CDDB/FreeDB expecting the order to be Artist then track name!

I think I only ever used those DBs once cause I was just too lazy to tag my mp3s manually like I normally do, but it looked awful so I had to change it anyway XD

Well that, and the fact that I find most of the eurobeat cds I ever put through those dbs, the tags were in katakana, and I don't tag my stuff that way.

Yes.

With the shorter CD's (normal SEB's for example), it isn't too much trouble. But for anniversary albums, or other non-stop with over 50 tracks, it's hell. x_x

Artist name comes FIRST _ALWAYS_
Why, WHY, do some systems insist on putting the track title first :'C

Too lazy to go upstairs to look at the cd to find out which, but with Dynamika / Passion, either the group name or the song name was lowercase with caps. And "feat." or "featuring" is usually in lowercase on SEB cds.
