dbPoweramp isn't picking up metadata but does find cover art.

[Rob22]

Good afternoon.

I have the paid for version, Reference. I've allowed dbPoweramp access through the Windows 10 firewall but its not picking up any metadata. The first time this happened I assumed the CD was too new but this is the second time there has been an issue. Foobar 2000 picked it up the correct metadata in an instant. Oddly as soon as I entered the CD title, dbPoweramp found the right cover art!

I'm struggling to see what more I can do to help, which I need as my typign is rbbuish.

Can anyone assist please?

Thanks.

Rob.

Check that the registered version is installed, from Control Centre it should say 'Reference Registered'

Also on the 'Advanced Settings' page that 'Allow dBpoweramp to access Internet' is checked, and the connect through proxy server is unchecked.

First thanks for the quick reply.

Second, sadly, I'm both registered (fully registered, no restrictions) and all dbPoweramp access to the internet is checked as per and connect through the proxy server is unchecked.

Irritatingly the program has been working fine for ages but I suspect a Windows update has interfered where it shouldn't.

Is there anything else I can do?

Understood, thank you. I've bought the upgrade, now I need to buy some more CDs to try it out!
