    I'm wondering it it is just my system .. I can't get either of the CDDB servers to work. I reinstalled v.20 with no luck.

    Basically, the album title and artist name fill in right away when I refresh the CD, then I get the "parse error" and no track information appears. I've tried this with a bunch of CD's with the same result.

      I got CDDB working on my Windows 2000 workstation.

      Basically, simply reinstalling did not work. On a hunch I uninstalled v.20 first and THEN reinstalled, and CDDB information on the tracks filled in immediately.

      Maybe it was some kind of glitch as I was upgrading from each of the prior versions??

      In any case, I'm psyched that it's working normally ..

        I ran into the same problem (Parse error) after reinstalling the new version (0.20) on top of the old one.  Upon reading dreadnaught's response here, I did an uninstall and then installed once more.  Now everything works like a charm. 
        For the record: I use WinNT 4.0

      I'm unable to use CDDB. I get the message "no matches in CDDB database."

      I'm running 0.24 on Win2K.

      I've looked at the FAQs and tried reinstalling.

      Any ideas? I've turned off my firewall software so I don't think that's it.

      Have you guys tried any of the mirrors?

      The default one never worked for me so I tried one of these and now it works like a charm!

      The Default CDDB site is invaild. you will need to witch it to a FreeDB try in your setting. Try putting in this IP 64.71.163.204 for the FreeDB server.

      See this site for more details.
