Function for adding multiple catalog numbers #171

Open lbr5539 opened 3 years ago

lbr5539 commented 3 years ago

In some cases, the same disc/media can have multiple catalog numbers, sometimes referring to multiple versions of an enclosure (like a BD and DVD bonus CD), catalogs used by different publishers/distributors on the same disc, or reference numbers of associations like JASRAC

Examples (first case): ANZX-15552/ANZB-15552 ZMXZ-13281CD/ZMBZ-13291CD

Examples (second case): COCX-41109/PROE-1016 KICM-3314/FS-1016 GFCA-471/LC-2403

Examples (third case): MJSA-01302 (TGCS-11828) USSW-0275 (R-2070596MT) UZCL-2200 (R-2000704JV)

It would be good if we had a feature on media edit to keep track of secondary catalog numbers like those.

1) R-2070596MT and R-2000704JV are not catalog numbers and should not be added as such. https://www.jasrac.or.jp/info/create/serial02.html 2) TGCS isn't from JASRAC, it's the matrix number of (some) 3rd party discs pressed by Sony Music Solutions (formerly Sony DADC) - but usually also appears on the front of the disc.

Removed "media" from the title, since we could use support for multiple catalog numbers on albums too not just media.
