metadata params #26

Closed fbngrm closed 9 years ago

fbngrm commented 9 years ago

is it possible to get the label of a release by setting a specific meta parameter in the lookup request? (i'd like to suggest that you should mention somewhere that values for the meta-parameter should be seperated by whitespaces in the lookup call :) thank you

The possible values are listed in the Acoustid web service documentation. (To answer your question, you may be able to get label information by using recordings, or you may have to do a second lookup in MusicBrainz to get that.) We should probably mention that this is the right place for details in our docs…

thank you for the answer. the values are listed but it's not mentioned what exactly is included in the response. that's the reason why i'm asking here. i will try the second lookup in musicbrainz if the label is not included in the recordings.
