Description Răzvan Sandu 2010-12-10 13:31:26 UTC
Hello,

Description of problem:

I am trying to tag a set of files ripped from a CD.
After analyzing files in picard, I get corresponding PUIDs.
Having the Audio CD in the optical drive, I am trying to submit PUIDs to MusicBrainz.org, one by one.

After submitting the first PUID, picard asks for username and password. I enter credentials, but picard keeps aasking for them continously, refusing to submit the rest of PUIDs.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
picard-0.12.1-2.fc14

How reproducible:
Always, in Fedora. The same picard, Windows version, doesn't have this bug.

Actual results:
picard only submits one PUID before asking for credentials continuously.

Expected results:
picard should submit an arbitrary number of PUIDs to MusicBrainz, using the credentials given under the Options menu item.

Thanks !

Sounds like some kind of authentication issue.  I can't reproduce this on my f14 box and I submit PUIDs via picard all the time.   If it continues probably should report this to upstream (I believe new releases of picard are suspended until the NGS schema for MusicBrainz is completed).  At the very least you should run this from the command-line and post any console messages to this bug.

Please post the console messages here, thanks.

Comment 3 Răzvan Sandu 2010-12-12 19:27:36 UTC
Would you please indicate how should I do this without using GUI, i.e. the exact command line should I paste output of? Thanks ! :)

I mean just open up a terminal and run:

$ picard

then cut-and-paste the output to a file and attach it (if it's long), or just paste into the comment field (if it's short).
