YADB

YADB is a new on-line database provided by J River, the makers of Media Center. Users of the program can submit or retrieve CD information to and from the database.

How can I submit information to YADB?

It is done automatically. When you put in a CD, Media Center first looks for the track names in the CD, then in the YADB database. If there is no match in YADB, a dialog box opens asking you to insert the information. The information you type in will then be sent to YADB.

If you do not complete the information, you can still rip your CD and manually enter the fields at a later time. To submit the information to YADB at a later time, select the tracks in Media Center, right click, select Library Tools | Submit track info to YADB.

If Auto Rip is selected (Tools | Options | Device Settings, “Action to perform when media is inserted: Audio CD, “rip”, or by clicking on the “Auto Rip” button when the Rip dialog box opens), Media Center will, by default:

•

Choose the first match found in YADB

•

Show submission dialog if no matches are found.

To change these settings, go to Tools | Options | Device Settings and click on Advanced Ripping Settings.
