Gracenote CD lookup
« on: November 20, 2009, 08:03:49 pm »

Forgive me if this is answered somewhere else--I couldn't find it.

I seem to remember a recent release of MC 14 included the ability to look up CD information on Gracenote CDDB, rather than depend on the very sparsely populated YDDB.  Am I just imagining this?  I remember needing to do a right click on the CD, and the option was there.

So, is there access to another CD database, which includes more titles than the default?  Both iTunes and WMA pick up almost all my submissions; the opposite is true for MC.  I rip a lot of books on CD and classical music.

Thanks for the guidance.

Sorry, but there's no way to use a database other than YADB.

If you lookup with another program, it normally writes to cdplayer.ini which Media Center will also read.
