WMP Retrieve Album Info

Carlwill · § #1 11-03-2009, 05:29 PM

Can someone tell me what I can do if WMP does not detect a CD album info if the disk is too new? I purchased a CD from Best Buy and the disk was released today. Normally WMP is able to use the Internet and collect album art and track info but in this case it wasn't. I am guessing because the disk was released today. What can I do? I like to RIP all my CD's to my local disk as MP3 320KBPS but not when WMP can't ID the artist / album.

Is there any other application that can do this for me? I am looking for a 3rd party application to RIP CD's to MP3 at a high encoding level as well as collect CD info like art and info.

Thanks!

media monkey is about the best i've used. can get album art and info straight from amazon and embed it in the mp3 as well as using freedb

I've had it have problems detecting CDs in the past, and usually if there is more than one edition of it.

Did you try manually searching for it, and seeing if it's there? Otherwise, if that doesn't work, I'd recommend media monkey as well.
