Hello,

There is one feature from EAC that I am really starting to get annoyed that it is NOT in dBpoweramp.

It is the the ability to "Transform Actual CD Imformation and Uppercase all first characters" like in EAC. I like to have all words start with a capital. In EAC, I could easily convert whatever was downloaded from CDDB into my own format. Cannot find a way to do this in the CD Ripper.

More times that not, the information from FREEDB and All Media Guide is all over the place and I have to manually edit a whole CD which is starting to because tedious.

Is there a reason this feature is not in dBpoweramp?

It will be appearing in R13, it is already in Batch Ripper.

Hello,
When will the BETA version be updated with this feature, if it is already in Batchripper?
Thanks

When CD Ripper gets inteligent meta data, which is after Batch Ripper is released (still updating that section).

So are we talking weeks, months, days or years?

try running them musicbrainz tagger, its very easy to do inbetween discs as one finishes, and you get highly consistent and usually very accurate metadata, and there are plugins for amazon art and last.fm tags among other stuff.

oh, and you can also use musicbrainz freedb gateway instead freedb itself.

just change the freedb configuration url to:

freedb.musicbrainz.org

Thanks, but often Musicbrainz is wrong as well, and I have to manually edit each track. In EAC it was just so easy!

I guess I just have to continue to wait.
