>> If you have the discs handy, stick them in the drive, enter the info, and they'll be submitted. Then wait a minute or two and select the tracks, and submit the track info. Then YADB will have both sets of data...
The way MC behaves for me forces this process to be in reverse; does that mess up the YADB submission?
By "reverse", I mean, when I insert a CD, tell MC to rip it, and the CD isn't found in YADB, I get a message box that simply asks if I still want to rip it? There's no choice at this point to enter CD or track info, just rip yes or no. So I say yes, rip it, then go to the Recently Ripped view and change Unknown Album and Unknown Artist and song name, etc to the correct info. But does this mean I already skipped over the step where the CD and track info is submitted to YADB?
I know there's a workaround. I can bail out of the "not found, still want to rip?" message, then go to the CD drive, re-open the CD, and get the Edit Information option. Would doing it this way update YADB? But this is much slower than accepting the "Unknowns" then changing them.
Of course, saying Yes to "not found still want to rip?", because it results in "Unknown Album", results in not finding a valid cover image. So it seems like the entire YADB process breaks down because "CD not found" does not consistently go directly to "Edit Information" before ripping.
If there's a setting I've overlooked I'll gladly change it!
