Missing album artwork

[se3000]

Ive just upgraded from my previous version to 16.4 trial on my Mac over xmas, for some reason it no longer automatically suggests the album artwork unlike my version 16.3.
I can manually select from the internet no problem. Any suggestions
Thanks

You need the registered version from:

Hello,
I am new to this forum and need help. I apologize if this is not the right note for this, I have looked around in the forum and have not found what I needed and this seems to be the closest topic.

I have a 1500 cd collection. I bought a Nimbie multi-cd reader and a dbpoweramp reference license (including perfect tunes, ....) I'm running Win10. I configured the batch reader to rip to flac and to MP3 in different directories on an external hard drive
M:\flac\artist\album\songtitle or
M:\mp3\artist\album\songtitle.

I use the appropriate conditionals so multi-artist CDs go to M:\(flac or mp3)\various artists\album\songtitle

This batch ripping with the nimbie is working OK (ripping batches of 25) except that I am not getting album artwork. I have seen posts about needing to pay for a subscription and there is a button to purchase a GDA subscription except when I click it, it says the service is no longer available and I should load a newer version of dbpoweramp. When I run dbpoweramp it says I have the latest.

I am not a professional ripper. I am just an old man with 1500 CDs I have collected over the years.
I would appreciate if someone could give me a pointer to what I need to do to properly rip my cd collection with artwork.

Thank you in advance.

This is the link you need:

https://www.getdigitaldata.com/AppSi...ampSignUp.aspx

You should then have a username and password you can type into the GD3 metadata options in Batch Ripper.

Thank you very much- that was the link I needed! So as a next step I need help to configure the batch reader to minimize unneeded commercial lookups and then I'll pay for the rest.

Is there a way to configure the batch ripper to get the album art from other sources before using getdigitaldata?
I see the option "Commercial Lookup Rule" and have selected: "Lookup GD3 Whe AMG has no Matches".
I also have checked:
All Media Guide, GD3, MusicBrainz, freedb, and
Intelligent Meta from all Enabled Providers.

But with this configuration and having not purchased a GD3 account, I got no artwork.

For the first 258 albums I ripped Perfecttunes found 221 so, as a rough estimate, I may, on average, really only need GD3 for 14% of my albums. It would be a significant savings not to use GD3 for every lookup. OK, I know that .12/cd may not seem alot but most of these CDs were purchased used and I'm on a budget :-).

Again, your help appreciated.

You need to update your batch ripper software, AMG has been replaced by Discogs in Release 3.
