I have a local copy of FreeDB.
I set the local db path as the default option. I select mp3s from a directory and I choose "freedb ( local )" from the freedb menu, then I want to choose "determine from selected MP3-files" but this option is light grey and I cannot select it. Help is kindly requested, please. |

Vernon,
this option and the query based on a search string are not available for local databases. The freedb query based on select files option uses a fuzzy matching algorithm of the remote freedb-server software to get the results. The option is greyed out at local freedb, because disc-id calculation based on audio files couldn't be as exact as needed for getting the right album. Best regards, ~ Florian -------------------- |

Thank you very much for your answer.
This software is not as useful as I thought... Which program can you use to tag songs if you have 10GB of mp3s and you're not online? |

Hey Florian,
Do you know of any software out there that will do this ? While MP3Tag is great, I'm in the same situation as this guy, and the prospect of manually typing in all the info isn't all that appealing.... Cheers, Darren. |

QUOTE (Darren @ Jul 26 2005, 11:51) Do you know of any software out there that will do this ? You can create a local index and search for albums in your local database using a search string. Regards, ~ Florian -------------------- |
