Script Summary:
WaffleBrainz helps you create good album descriptions with the help of MusicBrainz and Amazon, with as little fuss as possible. Version: 0.50 |
this script has 1 topic, 3 posts |
This script has no reviews. |
The currently supported trackers are waffles.fm and what.cd. If you would like me to support your tracker, feel free to contact me at peroyo at gmail.com. Of course I can't stop you from modifying it yourself (it's licensed under WTFPL), but I would prefer if you contacted me first so I can support your tracker officially.
WaffleBrainz also supports Opera since version 0.50. The way in which this is accomplished is by using a proxy on my webspace. This is however terribly insecure, and it potentially allows me to steal your cookies/passkey. I can promise you that I won't do this of course, and my webspace is more than secure enough, but you can never be 100% sure. The script is ~10 lines of php using curl, so if your tracker of choice wants to host it locally, you're more than welcome to do so. Just throw me a mail and I'll send you the script.
If you have any other suggestions for improvement I'm all ears, just be aware that a lot of things aren't that easy to accomplish, especially since I want to continue to support Opera (my browser of choice).
Lastly, thanks a lot to musicbrainz.org for making a terrific api and a fantastic database. If you can't find your album I very much suggest you add it to musicbrainz so others can benefit from you. Just be sure to follow the rather stringent editing rules. ;)
