    Unable to access AMG & MusicBrainz data

    I just noticed that I am no longer seeing AMG and MusicBrainz data in the PerfectMeta review screen. I have 334 days left in my PerfectMeta subscription and have verified the following are checked:

    PerfectMeta (Intelligent Lookup)
    All Media Guide [Internet]
    MusicBrainz [Internet]
    Allow dBpoweramp to access the Internet

    When I try Retrieve From: All Media Guide or Retrieve From: MusicBrainz I get an hourglass, but then no data is retrieved.

    I have also checked and verified the availability of GD3 and freedb. They both appear in the Review PerfectMeta Matches screen and when I try Retrieve From: GD3 or Retrieve From: freedb the tooltip over the Meta button dropdown reads Meta Source: GD3 or Meta Source: freedb respectively. There is nothing other than the default tooltip ("Retrieve ID tags from the Internet") when I Retrieve From: Retrieve From: All Media Guide or Retrieve From: MusicBrainz.

    I have restarted the software, rebooted my system and turned off my firewall to no effect.

    dBpoweramp Configuration shows that I have dBpoweramp Music Converter: Registered Reference Release 13.5. I just did an upgrade to v13.5 from v13.3 where it was working.

    The CDs that I have tried are common rock albums that I can see are in both AMG and MusicBrainz databases.

    Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm sure I am missing something obvious.

    Yesterday I had reports there were issues with certain databases, try again today.

      I am still experiencing the issue with no data from AMG and MusicBrainz. When I get the chance I will uninstall and re-install dBpoweramp and see if that makes a difference.

        I tested all 4 the other day and were all functioning correctly.

          OK, it appears to be working now.

          The re-installation did not fix the problem. However, after many systematic attempts at unchecking/restarting/checking/restarting the Metadata providers and stopping/starting the Sunbelt firewall it is finally pulling data from all providers again

          I am not sure what finally reset things, but am just glad it is working. I could not isolate any one thing that caused it to fail to retrieve data.

          Oh well. Thanks anyway.

            This is happening for me too. Definitely a real problem, several people have noticed it here.

              Working now after updating to v13.5, rebooting, and giving it a little time... Perhaps some handshaking issue with the validation of the license.. who knows...
