    Track info missing - is there a quick way to find or add it?

    Hi Forumites. I am a newbie just downloaded CD Ripper and trying it out. First album I have ripped to FLAC seems to have been done smoothly and quickly, but the ripped files have no track info beyond length of song: all the ten tracks show up as Track 1, Track 2 etc and no album or artist info at all. The Rip Status on the homepage marks all with an X as "Not in Accurate Rip" . But in an audio player - IINA or Apple Music for example, all the track info is found and shown from the CD. Is there a way to automatically access that info or to copy it to the FLAC files - or will I need to type it all in?

    I was hoping to rapidly rip a lot of my CDs and reassemble my music collection which has languished out of easy access. But if I have to type a lot of the album info in every time it's going to be a very long job....

    I'm a bit disappointed to be honest. This is just the first CD I picked to try, which is a compilation, but I was surprised the included metadata bases don't seem to find it. Or maybe I am doing something wrong as a newbie...? Grateful for any advice to speed up the operations. Cheers

    Have you ticked the settings options to use the various metadata source options? And also ticked which fields you want filled in the tagging settings. Im sure you will figure it out. There is a bit of a learning curve but once setup properly with naming string etc one simply rips. I have ripped over 5,000 CDs and havent touched my settings for years.
