Okay, I'm perplexed and frustrated. I like to rip CD's to .flac using EAC, as its a high-quality ripper. I've used it to rip all my existing CD's and any subsequent additions I may of purchased since I decided to get back into litening to music- in doing so, becoming a fully fledged audiophile for firt time- back in April this year.
At first, though it would still only hit say one in 4 or 5 CD's, it would still manage to link up to freedb.org and return information on some CD's. However, over say my last 2-3 ripping sessions, it returns bupkiss, ziltch. Out of approx the last 75 CD's I've ripped with it its returned nothing, many of which, are renound artists/material, and by no means subversive, small or little known so I would of expected a fair amount of hits. I've looked into it, got a grip on EAC's automatic ID3 tagging mechanism ie linking and communicating with freedb.org, and checked all this is how should be and, according to the freedb site, it is, but still no returns. I dont get it
. I've got the freedb application/EAC, pointing at http://freedb.freedb.org:80http://freedb.freedb.org:80/~cddb/cddb.cgi. and configured to, in the event that this doesn't work, it then tries other servers but still no joy! Any ideas as to why this still isn't working? Am I just overlooking something?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
