I'm new to the board and looking for help with XLD or validating that there is a bug in the software. I installed XLD (latest version - 20130127) and using it to rip my CD collection to ALAC. I am running mountain lion 10.8. The issue I have is that the software is not picking up the tags for the CD.
[list] [*]XLD is set to automatically connect to FreeDB on port 80 (I double checked that server and path are correct). I can ping the server with no issues. [*]XLD is set to "add tags to the output file if possible" (metadata section) [*]I'm using a custom file name format under the "General" section. It is /%A/%T/%n - %t The software rips the CD tracks but they come up as unknown artist, unknown album on the folders and unknown track. I've been fighting it for over 3 hours and about to pull my hair out! If I go to default file name settings, it works, but I think only because it is pulling off of what OS X pulls in on the finder screen when I load a CD. I've searched the forums and the web and found no answers. Can anyone here help me? Thanks in advance! |

Does it find and show you the tags before ripping, only to somehow lose them before creating the files?

In the "open" window/screen where you select the files to rip, the names show there, but I think that is a function of OS X. Once the progress screen shows up, all the tracks show 'unknown title' |
