When Freedb does not know the CD - what next?

Post by jk »

When Freedb does not know the CD - what next? Does this mean that the server is overwhelmed with enquiries? Are there ways to find other Freedb servers to try?

Mine is set to freedb.freedb.org and I get an error 404 when clicking 'alternate servers' . . .

Or other databases of tag data?

Thanks

When FreeDb do not know CD and You have Album Info, write it down and try to get info from Amazon. That helped me most of time when FreeDB didn't found it.

Note: You maybe need to clear Artist if not empty

I would fill in the Album and Artist field manually and use Auto-Tag from Amazon.

You can also try the Web Sources Tagger script, but I don't know what minimal information it needs.
