    Wrong album occurs in the ripper

    I have been ripping quite a few CD's with the CD ripper.
    But the last album I'm going to rip occurs as something completely different from what it actually is.
    The album I have in the drive is a Norwegian album, but the CD Ripper thinks it is The Essential Little Walter, Disc 1.
    All tracks listed by the ripper is from that album.
    It plays correctly in Windows Media Player.
    Anyone having an explanation for this?

    Click the 'Review Metadata' button and choose the album which is correct.

    Your CD is not cataloged with the metadata providers. This can certainly occur with rare CDs. Because of the way it looks up CD information (there isn't enough info that gets indexed that makes a CD unique enough to virtually guarantee an incorrect lookup like this). Your only choice now is to manually enter the information or use a program that might have the metadata, such as iTunes which uses Gracenote.

    Follow these directions in the Meta Data section to enter it yourself: https://www.dbpoweramp.com/Help/dMC/CDhelp.htm

    In that (seldom) case you have to type in the metadata by yourself.
