Title: Incorrectly ripping titles
Post by: skylarplane on June 01, 2006, 03:50:47 pm
When a title is downloaded from the data base that you use and the title has a quote mark in it like "can't"  or "won't", it always puts a " / " to the left of the quote mark and I have go in and edit the title.

Thanks,

Skylar

I couldn't figure out if that was a bug in YADB, or a problem with the computer belonging to the user who submitted the CD. I don't see that for all CDs with ' in the title, but I do for some.

I've had a similar problem a few times - maybe 1 or 2 per 100 lookups. The following characters have been replaced by a  "/":-
' `ατ
I would guess a mismatch if the ISO language pack that the DB runs on.  Should be using CP850 and maybe using CP427 instead.

I had this happen too on more than one CD in the last couple of weeks.  I get the "/" in front of all apostrophes ( ' ).

I have noticed the same thing from time to time. I have always quickly fixed the tags manually without giving the matter a second thought, but perhaps YADB has a bug.

This never happens if I'm using Windows Media to rip a CD.  Titles always come out correctly.  This only happens with the database that MC calls on.

Hi Y'all,

Is this data you submitted? Or just looked up?

Can you give me a CD title to work with?

Thanks,

John, I was ripping John Fogerty - The Long Road Home, which I just purchased.  There were about 4 or 5 tracks out of 25 that I had to manually correct.  I used MC to lookup the data and did not submit it.  Also, the automatic Album Art lookup came up empty, so I had to find the art manually as well.

Thanks. I almost got this fixed on friday, but not quite. There was a bug at one time with submitting that introduced improper backslashes. I wrote a cleaner to fix up the data, but it isn't quite ready. It'll be done on monday.

It's a fix on the server side, not in Media Center itself.
