How do I save my current Metadata Edits for a CD?
Hello All,
I have mostly classical music CDs which often have much more complex metadata than modern ones. With dBPA CD Ripper running I insert my CD, the metadata is downloaded, but often there are typos, etc. and masses of detail I need to change for purposes of accurately categorising my music. Sometimes there are 30 or 40 tracks on a single CD, often with very long track titles, so I may not complete my editing in one session.
I was under the impression that my edits were stored in cache - but tonight I had done about 1.5 hours of work on a very detailed CD then closed my computer down to continue at another time. To my horror, when I restarted the program (with the CD still inserted), the program downloaded the original metadata again, so all my edited work was lost! I tried retrieving it by having dBPA Cache as the only metadata download option ticked but to no avail - it was all gone.
Can someone please tell me how I can do progressive saves so that I don't have to complete a whole CD in one sitting? Or are my edits lost forever unless I do this? I'm positive I have done it before so maybe someone can suggest a solution?
Kind regards
