Title: YADB Info
Post by: murphusa on June 25, 2004, 07:34:59 pm
Hi All,

I am just getting over a worm-virus-trojan horse where I had to reformat my C: drive.
I am running XP Pro
MC 10.0.149
and am still trying to reload all of my programs from before the crash.

I have to re-rip my 1000 + CDs and I am running into a problem with YADB.  Yes, I know I should have backed up my machine, so don't scold me too much.

The problem is that I get hits on YADB for most of my CDs.  But being anil, I find the there are a lot of mistakes in the DB.  An example is the the group Eagles is not 'The Eagles'.  Try to find any reference to 'The Eagles' on any of there albums.  Another one is from the same album the title is Take it to the limit, not 'Take it to the limite'.

Is there any way that I can update the DB and also add the album images since I have all of the CDs.

Thanks for the help,

Murph

you can always fix what YADB sends you and re-submit it to YADB

you can also ask gateley if you can be sent parts of the database each day and fix what you know is wrong.

you can see more info at www.yadb.com

Does this work?  I've tried a few time over the weekend and just get "files not added because of file or server errors".

I have the same error messages as well.  The other message is that it is already in the DB.  It has a hard time distinguishing between what is in the DB and what is a correction.
