Music metadata URL issue

[fraenhawk 58]

When letting the server retrieve music metadata, the Website element is filled in along with everything else in the metadata manager. However, the http:// is being stripped. If you then try to edit any other data in the manager and Save, the Website element highlights and a "Please enter a URL" popup comes up pointing to that field. So apparently the rules for what's retrieved and saved versus the validation being done in the manager don't agree with each other.

 

Workaround for now. Change the elements you want, put the http:// in front and save. Then do a refresh to restore the website back to the non http version. This worked since the element I was trying to change was the Name (which is odd that it doesn't refresh from the metadata downloaders). Specifically, my folder for the B-52's has the apostrophe. Musicbrainz has a note that officially they don't use the apostrophe anymore and they've changed all references to "the B-52s", yet even on an advanced refresh the name kept the apostrophe. So I went to fix it and that's when I noticed the URL issue.
