    ripper came up with the wrong metadata

    I have a Mac. I inserted Paul Simons Seven Psalms into my Pioneer BDR-Xd05S and asked the ripper to rip the cd. It decided that the cd is from The Cranberries and is called "Interview with Fergal Lawler". I tried the Mac Music app to see what it would do. The Music app correctly read the metadata. I pulled up the metadata in the Music app and copied and pasted into the dbpoweramp metadata manual review window. I then selected rip and it ripped correctly. Also, before I tried ripping dbpoweramp said there was an update, which I applied. I also tried doing the rip with the older dbpoweramp, same result. I am going to try ripping another cd later today or tomorrow. I hope it works.

    The algorith to find the corresponding metadata in the databases leads to an unique result - most of the times, but not always. Different albums can have the same key (checksum) to search so a mismatch can happen. You can enable 'CD Text' as another source for metadata, which can be, but isn't always available on the CD itself.

      Click the Review Metadata button on the toolbar at the top, one of the 5 providers might have had that disc correct.
