HI guys,
I using MediaMonkey for my small collection of CD right now. And i have quite alot of CD like "The Essential of Kenny G", "The Best of Yanni", "Lionel Richie-Tuskegee" and many more. All of them are legit CD. But when i rip it to my computer using MediaMokey, All i saw in the file name were "Unknow", Album tittle also "Unknow". Is there any way around to fix this or MediaMonkey is not the one that i should use.

Thanks you in advance.

This might be a dumb answer but is your internet on? It has to find info on the internet.

@ProtegeManiac: Manual Tagging? Is that mean i have to change the name song by myself, one by one?

Yes. if you got used to iTunes doing that, my condolences 

 The thing is the reason why I just do it manually is that sometimes it will tag in ways that it cannot anticipate for other devices. Prime example are multi-disc live albums - if you see that autotagged in MM's library there won't be any problems, everything is just listed by album, no problem - XXXX Disc 1, Track 17 will be followed by XXXX Disc 2, Track 1. On a mobile device, it will recognize XXXX Disc 1 and XXXX Disc 2 as separate albums, so when I listen there, I have to line up the second album on a playlist, instead of how it would have worked on a multi-disc player, which is to just put one in one slot and the next disc in the next slot, and it will automatically move on to the next.

 

In other cases it puts in unnecessarily detailed entries. It's nice if it lists down under "Composers" which band members contributed to what (and in what order to designate by how much, in some cases), but in some cases the internet info might put unnecessary details like include the individual band members that's supposed to go under "Composers" into the "Artist" tag along with  the band name. Or in some cases it can't find the info at all as in your case, but with more obscure stuff like with local bands here (changing a bit now though, our most popular prog metal band is on Spotify already).
