error connecting to musicbrainz
Hi all
When i try to use musicbrainz to autotag.
I pop a cd in, and right click and select
Lookup Audio CD metadata...
I can see the background task for "Requesting information for Audio CD" and then a popup window is displayed:
"There was an error while connecting to musicbrainzDOTorg: Cannot create connection."
My Metadata lookup settings are set as such:
Audio CD metadata lookup
Database: MusicBrainz
Server name: musicbrainzDOTorg
Auto-tagging
Sources: musicbrainz
This feels like a bug in Media Monkey....how do i debug this? is there a log somewhere I can look at?
Thanks
Eric

Re: error connecting to musicbrainz
Is this for 1 or all CDs? Sometimes trying again later will do the trick.

Hi,
Try to change server to "mb.mediamonkey.com" and also try other two FreeDB options with same "mb.mediamonkey.com" server name.

Re: error connecting to musicbrainz
Hmm...are there logs i can inspect so i can see what error i'm encountering? My connections to musicbrainz or mb.mediamonkey.com both utterly fail.

Hi,
Audio CD metadata lookup
Database: MusicBrainz
Server name: musicbrainz.org
definetly works, it is the default CD metadata database in MM5.
Is it failing for all your CDs ? If you go to https://musicbrainz.org/ via explorer (or click the link here), does it show you the page ?
If yes, then generate debug log (item 4b here: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewt ... 30&t=86643 )

Hi,
For CD lookup you can temporary replace "mb.mediamonkey.com" with "gnudb.gnudb.org" for "FreeDB (HTTP)" source.

Re: error connecting to musicbrainz
For CD lookups we are using
MusicBrainz at musicbrainz.org
with fallback to
FreeDB at mb.mediamonkey.com
But based on the above user screenshot there was an issue with musicbrainz.org lookup.
The questions are:
Is it failing for all CDs ? If you click this link:
https://musicbrainz.org/ws/2/discid/v2D ... -?fmt=json
does it show you the JSON data?
Could your generate debug log (item 4b here: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewt ... 30&t=86643 )
Just be sure that you are using debug build: https://www.mediamonkey.com/beta/MediaM ... _Debug.exe
Thanks for feedback!

Re: error connecting to musicbrainz
i switched to gnudb DOT gnudb DOT org and it still says it can not find the CD info.
Re: error connecting to musicbrainz
If it can't find the CD info it may not be in the database, in that case you'll need to manually enter the information.

Or at least partial information so that you can rip CD and then USE MM5 Auto Tag to fill the rest on the ripped tracks. Finally after that is done and you are satisfied you can Use Auto organize to put teh files in their final Resting place.

Re: error connecting to musicbrainz
Can I get support by email or some other means.
I just want to get some way to have MM get the metadata, I doon't care how,
I paid for this software and it is broken and it needs to be fixed
I have submitted a few bug reports and have not heard back from anyone
