Hello,
I am relatively new (coming back to ripping cds after Years of just streaming). I own a lot of music by foreign artists so I am honestly not expecting the software to be able to pull metadata from databases all the time, however, it seems like I can't even get it to read the metadata embedded on the track themselves. Just for instance, I have a cd, Aha! by Pang. dBpoweramp absolutely has not metadata for it even when I tell it to retrieve metadata from cd-text or cd-ISRC. However this same cd shows all metadata in iTunes or VLC or similar apps that play audio cds. I just don't understand. Is there an option I am missing somewhere? I even tried manual search and again while I'm sure the info just isn't available on the databases it pulls from shouldn't it be able to pull the data from the cd itself if other apps can as well?
I am using the most recent version. Just bought it yesterday. I am working off a Mac if it matters.
edit: Just an edit to add that both cd-text and cd-ISRC are checked off as active providers.
