Hi,
In preferences in the remote CD tab do you have the checkbox for auto
connect to remote cddb checked?

If it doesn't grab them automaticly, go to your cddb sub menu and arrow
down to freedb batch query and press enter. I bet you that'll do the trick.

Yup; that's what my CDEX used to do too! But that isn't what I found
yesterday afternoon (it said audio track 1 01 (and so it went like that) I
wouldn't think that the information on this particular CD boxed set would
be
hard to get info for!

When i ripped my last couple of cds about a month ago I didn't even
require the player program you guys are talking about. i just put the cd
in the drive, launched CDEX and just like magic, there they were, the
song titles properly in the right places. Then I just hit f9 and off it
went, ripping to 320 k mp3. Nice and fast.

So where do you get this "player" program from? I know it _did_ work not
too terribly long ago, so I don't know what could be different!

...get a programme there that's called "Player", download it, install it.
This very blindfriendly program will let you grab the information from
Gracenote, then you could either rip to wav or ogg or export the
information
in the player.ini from which cdex is able to read it so you can also rip
into whatever formats cdex supports, i.e. mp3.

So what you're saying is, go to the Gracenote site and...and then what?
Afraid it's just not sinking in!

CDEx doesn't use Gracenote by default, you have to install a different
program called player which you can find on the gracenote site and this
will
allow you to export information from Gracenote to CDEx and, yes, this
still
works fine. GraceNote is far better than FreeCDDB, but both still exist
and
Gracenote complements the former.
Take care

I ripped a cd just a few weeks ago using CDEX so yes, it is quite
definitely
possible to have it grab the track titles from gracenote.
speaking of which the proper spelling of that for future reference is
g r
a c e
n o t e.
I'm guessing the cd collection being ripped wasn't available, some
older titles and some audio books aren't referenced in there. so
amazon or google may be your best bet for track titles, and you can
always use something like mp3 tag to tag your files if that's important
to
you.

(sorry about wrong spelling) has this affected Cdex? Is it no
longer possible to have Cdex put the titles of tracks in? If so,
then I'll have to go back to using Windows Media.something I'm not
real thrilled about as the current version isn't as "cut and dried"
as Windows Media
