Lower bound for track length before a recording can be submitted

While we’re in the topic of AcousticID, is there a limit to how short a recording can be so that it can be submitted to AcousticID? I tried submitting recordings that are shorter than 10 seconds but it doesn’t appear in the fingerprint tab on the recording page.

We’re not on the topic of AcousticID though, because there’s no such thing as “AcousticID”. :slight_smile: I will assume you meant AcoustID though. (And everything in the AcoustID category is on the topic of AcoustID, so you can always write here with any AcoustID questions.)

Yes, there is a lower bound, but I can’t find it at a quick look over the AcoustID documentation. I’m pretty sure it’s lower than 10 seconds though, and more than 1. IIRC it’s around 2–5 seconds.

Thanks for moving it. I guess I must have not remembered it correctly due to AcousticBrainz messing with my memory.

I’m glad its not just me who has been using the wrong name for all these years… :smiley:
