Yesterday evening, June 10th, I pushed a significant data update to the production server. This filled in a number of gaps in the database and should get MixesDB 2 much closer to 100% parity with the MixesDB database.
The first step was to re-archive a couple hundred mixes that had run into errors during the downloading process. This only was ~200 out of some roughly 280,000 mixes, meaning the original archiving process was quite successful.
The second step involved writing additional tracklist parsers for webpages that were not handled initially. This significantly expanded the database of tracks.
Below are a few figures on the updates:
| Before | After | Delta | |
|---|---|---|---|
| No. of Mixes | 287,243 | 287,453 | + 210 |
| No. of Tracks | 4,247,811 | 4,680,117 | + 432,306 |
This should resolve nearly all of the outstanding reports of missing tracklists that users have sent to me. If anyone should come across more missing data, please report it via email:
