Hello Everybody,
I have relabeled a copy of my files for the release “111 Years of Deutsche Grammophon: The Collectors’ Edition”, and it relabels all of the files (from 55 CDs) with the same conductor “Ferenc Fricsay” even though most tracks have other conductors. The data shows up correctly in Musicbrainz proper. Any help is appreciated. As far as I can see right now, this does not happen with smaller releases.
Regards,

Link the release otherwise you ask people to just guess. Check this is not a “at release level” relationship.
I guess turn this off
(looks like the release has some dumb “release level” relationships…)
With 55 CDs in the release this should probably not be there
Bingo, that fixes it. Thank you very much.
The one thing still wrong is that the tags of the CDs that do not have a conductor relationship (or singers) are not deleted. This is annoying but al least not truly bad.
Instruments and roles won’t get over-written if the role doesn’t exist. When I update instruments I do it in two save steps. Highlight all the orchestra, conductor, vocals and delete them. Save this. Now refresh the Release and the correct roles can now be saved.
That’s a good tip, thank you. Perhaps we should report this as a bug.
Not really a bug, more of a feature. Ticking that box does as the description says - blindly copies release level data to all tracks. I noticed it when I was getting a Compilation’s “Producer” copied into all the Recordings as “Producer” of the recording. So leave it off now.
I guess it is more of a hang over from a past when there was less detail on recordings. Not sure if it is on by default.
A plugin that can “reset instruments\performers” in one motion would be useful. I’ll often update credits on a release on MB after initially tagging and it can leave some artists items double credited.
