Title: Cover art from Gracenote instead of Internet
Post by: Araj on October 30, 2009, 12:53:49 pm

The option to find cover art in the Internet seems to have disappeared from the menu - I now have "Get from Gracenote" in the menu, but Gracenote has so far failed to find cover art for the three albums I have submitted. What happened to the Internet option?

Nothing has happened to it.  If you right click on an audio file, you should get that option.

As you can see in this screenshot, I have Gracenote both as a separate menu item and as a sub-menu item of Cover Art where the Internet option used to be...

No idea.  MC13 hasn't changed in a long time.

Do you have an Internet connection?

Incompatible filetype?

Erm, yes I do have an Internet connection, otherwise Gracenote wouldn't be working either, would it ?

You didn't say that it worked.

If you haven't done so, try reinstalling.  If that doesn't work, uninstall, removing registry entries, reboot and reinstall.

Huh ? Even supposing I had no Internet connection, are you suggesting the menu would then change to show Gracenote (also via Internet, obviously) instead of Internet ?

I'll try a reinstall

Reinstall got: "Media Center has encountered critical error #30. Some essential component is missing or courrupted. Please uninstall and reinstall the latest version. If the error persists, report it to JRiver".

So then I deinstalled (incl. registry entries) and reinstalled. Reinstallation produced a series of errors during the install routine. I tried to cancel the installation but was told that this was no longer possible, I would have to wait for the installation to complete and then deinstall/reinstall. Devil as I am, I ignored this completely and tried another reinstall after the second attempt had completed and now MC is back with the Internet option, and yes, I already tried finding the last cover art I was looking for and found it no problem. No other issues so far, so fingers crossed....

You're welcome.

This sounds like rights related problems.  Windows 7?

MC13 hasn't changed in quite a while.  You've got multiple (new) errors.

Something's rotten in Denmark.
