WMP 11 - Rip one album and Media data base returns a different alb
kmisenor 09.07.2007 15:24:02
I ripped Handel's album "The Water Music and Music for the Royal Fireworks" ,
the online data base returned an album by Norma Lewis's "Maybe This Time -
The Best of Norma Lewis". This has happened to several other ablums I've
ripped. How can this problem be corrected? It takes alot time trying to
correct the information to right album and its very frustrating.

There is no feedback mechanism available to correct the metadata
submitted by users. But that behaviour can be avoided.

In media player make sure on the Tools -> Options -> Library tab that
you have selected "Only add missing information" to avoid it
overwrting your correct data with junk.

Cheers - Neil
