Default [Request] A couple new media types

Specifically: CD+DVD & CD+Blu-ray

And any variants of those (2CD+DVD, etc). I want something like this:



A large amount of my submissions alone have this release format, so it would be easier if I didn't have to manually add the DVD/Blu-ray every single time.

I've got single CD+DVD and single Blu-ray+DVD working. However, it was a much more dangerous change than I originally realized. I'm going to let you guys test things for a while before I even think about adding N CD + DVD.

Hopefully those 2 variants cover most of the albums you submit. Because of time limits, I need to make sure that any improvements I make to the code are the ones that most aid submission, and (especially) moderation of the edit queue.

Would it be easier/less dangerous to just call them all discs and give drop downs to "tag" them like we do with the scans?

The danger was just that it was core stuff that Blah rewrote a couple years back using some events and handlers, so it's less obvious if there are going to be side effects.

Well 2/3 CD + DVD/Blu-ray is pretty uncommon. This will be good for now.

Thanks.

Any chance of getting CD-R added?

Shawn Phase / Temp Sound Solution's earlier stuff is on CD-R, and some other official promo discs may also be distributed in that format. Like that DDR / Beatmania CD I added a while back.
