    Why MusicBrainz not used for Meta looking

    Help, I do not understand why MusicBrainz is not used when retrieving meta, i've checked MusicBrainz.
    If i look at Metareview, this DB is not used. For information, i've purchased for 1000 lookups inside dbpoewramp batch ripper.
    I missed something ?

    Thanks for help.

    some snapshoot of this:

    For all CDs? or just one? I have just tested MusicBrainz and it worked fine.

      Yes, i've just tested now with a bunch of 10 CD and always musicbrainz is greyed.
      i looked up on my ripped CDtheque and nowhere musicbrainz is used.

        If you have security software, try to disable as a test, it might be blocking MusicBrainz.

          i'm not sure what you mean about security software.
          The stuff like: Windows firewall, zone alarm ?
          Normally i just have antivir as an antivirus.
          Thanks for helping me.

            I had trouble with MusicBrainz last night. Their server might have temporarily down.

              Musicbrainz is working now.
              I've tryed with a new known CD --> ok
              I've made again the test with Louis Armstrong CD and the Musicbrainz is always greyed.
              I tryed to force DBpoweramp to retrieve from musicbrainz and it does nothing, no meta data retrieved
              I've ripped it anyway and used another software named Jaikoz and this one can find informations and the illustration for that CD.
              Why dbpoweramp can't do the same ?
              With regard to classical music, the informations are often unfortunately extremely wrong

              (sorry for my poor english)
