[newbie] M9.0 / Grip V 3.0.1
M9.0, Grip v 3.0.1 track info display problem One of Grip's more endearing features is it's ability to read the track info of wave file on a CD and display the track information like artist,and song title. Try as I may I cannot get this function to display on M9.0 Grip v3.0.1 with discs known to have this information on them and proven to work in M8.2 's version Gripv2.98.6. The excellent help file , which sets the standard on how help files are written has not helped me solve the problem. Is there a bug with this Grip 3.0.1 version or am I not configuring it right, any suggestions welcomed , as this was a very useful and enduring feature of this programme.

John Oh, I am definately talking about the the info that comes from the disc itself nothing to do with the net whatsoever.Most modern CD's come with content info on them , so when you copy the disk in a writer programme for instance , provided that the correct read instructions are given , it copies the disk info as well, xcdroast does this nicely. Grip mere reads this info and displays it as I show you before. Not all CD have this info but from a certain date they seem to of gone in for listing this track song and artist detail on all CD produced thereafter.

John It's read from the disc. Here is one read by grip v2.98.6 from a commercially bought disc , not a copy,with no internet involved.
