Not the data not having enought cds.

Data is quite good.

Just YADB having problemes to get it from time to time.

This are facts:

One days ,try to rip 100 cds.
Results you get: NUTS

Not in the data
Not in the data
ect ect ect

Put a cd you uploaded cd infos few days before == not in the data.

Ok
You close MC and open EAC.

Now , try this:

Just do not rip the cds.
Keep them on the side.

One day , open MC and try to rip.

You will get Cd infos for almost all of them.
Means YADB had a good night , meal or f..

YADB is in a very good mood.
You can rip for days and get all infos for all your cds.

...Until YAB has a bad night , meal ,or..

So , if when YADB in bad mood , one upload Cd infos to it.
It means that  he is uploading the infos a second , or third , maybe more , time.

I see CD entrys i cleaned at the time having now  more than one indentical entrys.


Another thing YADB may do or not.

If cd not found , YADB ask you if you want to use the INI folder.

But , most of the time ,it does not.

And out of the blue suddenly , yes , it asks.

To make short , YADB means sometime

You Are Definitively Blur

Quite often- To much often i would say.

With 9.1 if of any importance.

There may be some Internet backbone problems.  I'm noticing other temporary problems for the last several days.

[zevele10]

What i say is after using  MC for more than 2 months  to rip TONs of cds.

When the prob is here , most of the time , it last few days.
Not only few hours.

From time to time , you may get a short time prob.
I had one 2 or 3 days ago.

But , when working fine , the rate of CD infos you get is hight.
Well , i may say , VERY hight.

After that , if you take , let say , 10 cds not on YADB.
You get infos for 6 or 7 of them with FreeDB.
The others 2 or 3 are only in cdbb.

When YADB working you get 10 without infos out of few hundreds CDs.
Not out of 40 or 50 CDs.

If this internet prob solved ,YADB would be better than FreeDB , because MUCH less mistakes , wrong infos for new CDs in YADB than in FreeDB.

I mean really much less.

Yeah, I still don't understand why nobody has put together a program that seaches allMusic, YADB, cddb, freedb, etc, does something smart with the results, and then ask the user for confirmation before writing the tags.

I'm sure that would be expensive (due primarily to cddb and allmusic), but I know people that would pay -whatever price- for that functionality.

Because the SDK does not support this, If it did I would.
