It's not really possible to assign a track to a recording because cannot see length of track in either tracklist or proposal list

XMLWordPrintable

      It's not really possible to assigne a track to a recording, on the RecordingsPage, because at least you need the tracklenght in the track-column and in the proposal list!
      If you don't have the tracklenght of both track/recording it's only a guess, that both songs are the same.

          Mockup 2 has got the most votes here, so I will continue with that approach.

          I vote for mostly mockup #2, but if possible right-justify the duration so it's up against the change button.

          This is actually very close to our current UI...

          Mockup 1 looks cleanest to me. #2 is hard to use, with the times not vertically aligned. #3 is pretty confusing, since there's 2 disparate things merged together (and I guess I don't understand what the benefit of it is)

          Both 1 and 2 are equally fine to me.

          I've mocked up a few ideas for this in http://ocharles.org.uk/mbs-2390-mockups.html. Would love to here which approach people think is best!

          Length in the proposal list has been added with fix of MBS-2992, however length of track is still missing.

          > Additionally I don't think it should even let you associate a track with a recording if they differ in length by more than a certain amount e.g 10 seconds.

          It should warn, but not forbid you to do it.

          Yes, when you search for possible recordings to match a track to it shows the length of the matching recordings but it DOESNT show the length of the tracks. Additionally I don't think it should even let you associate a track with a recording if they differ in length by more than a certain amount e.g 10 seconds.
