GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 532467
Metadata before ripping CDs can't be adjusted
Last modified: 2008-09-24 20:28:50 UTC
When I insert a CD into my CD drive, and start Banshee. Banshee recognizes the CD, and imports the track titles from The Internet. However, I don't like to capalization used in online databases, so I want to adjust the track titles. However, unlike previous versions of Banshee, the entire dialog is missing. Please reintroduce this dialog.
I agree and have the same problem.
+1 here. Also, I wonder where banshee-1 fetches metadata from... I had to rip a CD for my gf yesterday and banshee failed to fetch metadata (it worked for another of my own CDs which I tried after that though) but sound-juicer managed to display metadata just fine. Does S-J access some different metadata databases or did it read CDTEXT or something which Banshee does not?
+1 This happens in 1.0 and makes it so I have to use either rhythmbox or sound-juicer to rip a CD which means I have to manually import the CD into banshee.

Sound Juicer (and Rhythmbox AFAIK) use MusicBrainz to fetch metadata. Banshee used to, but doesn't in 1.0 (yet, see bug 541149). That said, you should of course still have the ability to edit metadata in Banshee manually, if you really want to. :)
I would like this feature too. Also because you can set the genre field that way.
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
Thanks! However, banshee now freezes when I enter a CD (while fetching metadata). I killed banshee and started it again, if I now go to the CD source the tracks show with the correct name (the cd was recognized by musicbrainz) but the metada fetch bar shows again and banshee crashes again. Anyone else seeing this? Worth a new bug?
(In reply to comment #8) > Worth a new bug? Yes, definitely.
