AMG only provides details for first disc of a multi disc set?

[Agharta]

I'm having a problem where I only get AMG downloads for the first disc of a multi disc set. The second disc just appears with the same track information as the first disc.

Is this simply a limitation of AMG? Or is there a way around this?

I was thinking that perhaps the FreeDB track information could be merged in with the other details provided for the first disc from AMG?

This is the boxed set I'm trying to download, it is 4 CDs:

Hmm, looks like you need to set a track offset. How you do this with r12 I have no idea, nor do I have any multi-disc CD sets to test it with.

Do you see the "Disc 1/" on the top row? Is the number after the / a 1 or 4?

Yes it says 1/4, but then I put the 2nd disc in the drive, and it still downloads the details for 1/4 rather than 2/4.

The AMG data seems to just be one long list, so just some method of getting the next lot of tracks from the list would fix this.

AMG is a database just like freedb, there are missing entries.

I assume it is getting the data for the first disc from this page. If so, clearly all the tracks for all 4 discs are on the page. It is recognising the 2nd through to 4th discs as being from the collection listed on that page, but it just fills in the song details from the first disc. (i.e. the first 27 tracks)

I can manually increment the track numbers, we just need a way to make it get the next lot of tracks from AMG, rather than repeatedly filling in the first lot of tracks.

Is this possible?

It is just frustrating seeing the correct tracks and details all listed there, but dBpowerAMP can't get them down. Or maybe AMG doesn't give them out correctly?

They have 2 databases as I am aware, you allways have the freedb option to fall back on.

Ahh OK, I assumed it was just getting the same data as the allmusic.com database.
