Title: Bug or User Error
Post by: Magic_Randy on March 30, 2003, 03:39:10 pm

I'm using MC9 build 137.
My PC is WIndows XP.

When I rip an album, and MC9 recognizes the album and all of the track information, everything is OK.

If MC9 does not recognize the album, it brings up a window to enter the information.  The window is labeled "CD Information".

After I enter all of the information, it comes back and says:

Action Success
Satatus: CSinformation successfully added to the database.

It has a box to say OK (i click OK)

MC9 comes back with a message

Action Failed
Status: CD not found

When I try to rip the CD, all of the tagging information I just entered is gone.

I now have to edit everything again.  Note, I can never get back to the simple screen to maintain the CD Information.  I guess MC9 keeps a database of CDs you inserted, even if you did not rip them.  Even if there is no data.

I know this product is still in BETA, but I'm having trouble with very basic functions.

Am I doing something wrong?

Try updating from yadb after you get the error.  Someone else just reported the same error and said it then works.

If it's a bug, we'll fix it this week.

I re-entered all of the data on the CDs I was ripping, so I have no CDs left try your suggestion.

More CDs will arrive next week.  I'll test it again when I get the next batch of CDs.

Thanks fopr the quick response.

yeah, I was having this same problem, but instead of posting it here, I tried to update from YADB like JimH said to do.  It did get all the info back.

So, I don't know why it fails the first time, but it works the second time.

OK, I had one more CD in the car, so I tried again.

Did not find the CD Information.

I manually entered everything.

It lost it again.

I tried an update from YADB.  It did not work.

When are you doing the update from YADB?  Before or after the rip?

I tried the update before the rip so that the files would be named correctly.

Anyway, I'm getting tired of typing.  Until this is fixed I will rip with another product.  The library does not appear to be rich anyway, which means more typing, so I especially don't want to type it twice.

After getting the error go to the left window, right click your CD-drive and choose "update from CD database". You get back your entered tags. Works everytime.
