One of the providers might be temporarily down.

I have been observing this behavior for about a week now.

If you can isolate which of the providers it is, also R14.2 is in beta which improves Musicbrainz support (since their switch over to NGS).

Re: meta data VERY slow

yeah, i have de-selected two of the providers - i am now only using AMG and FREEDB and the metadata is as fast as normal again!!

i have noticed that FREEDB is more accurate anyway...

:D

Yes, I have noticed this also. I am not on a beta release at all. I posted this on another dbpoweramp forum. Painfully slow !!

Re: meta data VERY slow

The beta release might fix your problem, try R14.2 for me all 4 providers are very fast.

Re: meta data VERY slow

The slow behavior continues for me using the beta. I have a fast internet connection.

Re: meta data VERY slow

Some people have identified Musicbrainz as being slow for them, try unchecking that option.

Re: meta data VERY slow

I unchecked Musicbrainz and the process improved dramatically until this weekend.

Now it is much slower than before. It takes 2 minutes or more each time.

I unchecked All Media Guide and speed is back to normal.

Soon I will not have any metadata providers left.

AMG might be having temporary difficulties
