CD database for VLC

Postby dBMa » 28 Nov 2013 18:53

Does anybody know how to upload CD information to the CD database used by VLC?

We are having problems with the database confusing album information and would like to upload our own information to ensure this doesn't happen

Any help appreciated.

You mean freedb.org or cover art?

Yes I was thinking of freedb.org but know how it's done now thanks.

But I've noticed we get incorrect results when VLC gets its information from freedb.videolan.org which is the default setting.

Do you know why freedb.videolan.org and freedb.org get different results?

Thanks

No, and that's a bit annoying.
