FreeDB, is it present?
Is there a way I can connect and retrieve information for my mp3's in DAP or in MMC? Sorta like in Windows Media Player... I'm trying to get used to DAP but I think an essential feature is the Media Information. If there is no support for online media information, i'm going straight back to WMP. Please help me. :(

Re: FreeDB, is it present?
I don't think that there is currently a way to have dAP write tags to mp3 files via freedb. Are the mp3 files that aren't tagged ripped off of CDs?Originally posted by ZarchonLt. Data

Re: FreeDB, is it present?
You mean to say WMP gets media information from the web for mp3 files that don't have tag information? I thought it only displayed the tag informaiton for those.
I know it may get informaiton for audio cd's, and even then, it has to be a commercial one, typically not a burnt one unless it's an exact replica of a commercail one. Otherwise, if you get anything at all, you risk getting totally wrong information as it may identify with the wrong thing.[B][url=http://www.webado.net/][COLOR=Blue][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Christina[/FONT][/COLOR][/url][/B]

Re: FreeDB, is it present?
yup had problems with WMP alright... I had a CD from Djordje Balasevic (a yugoslovenian artist) in the collection and it was quickly identified as Enya, memories of the trees... lol
WMP doesn't read from FreeDB as far as I know it reads from it's own catalogues... it is nice sometimes, though... I had for example all of the song writters for "The Ultimate Experience" right there in the tags... but for most CDs there are no info...[COLOR=blue]Donny[/COLOR] - member of the [URL=http://www.musicplayerclub.com/forumdisplay.php?f=45][COLOR=DarkGreen]dBPowerAMP fan club[/COLOR][/URL]

Re: FreeDB, is it present?
LOL! Yes, WMP gets the information fron the Online Media Library that Microsoft maintains. Similar to Freedb I guess.
One of my daughters's own cd's that had never been included in the database (being home-studio recordings) was identified as being some rapper's cd - I forget the name, but just his name alone was shocking, not just the titles
