Title: cd-extra / enhanced cd problems.
Post by: Marko on April 18, 2003, 12:27:43 am

MC is still unable to rip, play or perform a YADB lookup for these cd's.
It correctly picks up the audio cd in the drive and lists the correct number of "unknown track/unknown artist/unknown album" cda tracks, but is unable to anything with them. (When asked to do a YADB lookup, MC makes no attempt to connect to YADB at all)

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

I've been running into lots of problems with CD-Extra CDs, as I just picked 4 by the same artist up this weekend.  Problems being:

1)  Drive won't recognize the data/audio split and only accesses data side.  (Corrected by updating drive firmware)

2)  When accessing the YADB, even after submitting all track info for a CD, it won't be found.  

3)  YADB lookup is getting hits from several CDs by the artist, not just one.  (Haven't seen this otherwise.)

Damn ye, Sony.  >.<
