Got a strange message when trying to rip a couple of CDs.

For the Album title and track names I got this message:

Artist: It appears that your email address is invalid.

Title: See https://gnudb.org

Date:

1 It appears that your email address is invalid.

2 To resolve this issue, please access the settings

3 in your program and update your email to the

4 correct one.

5 If updating the email address is not feasible,

6 it suggests that your program may not be

7 compatible with gnudb.org, as it requires

8 a valid email address for authentication

9 purposes. For more information, you can

10 refer to the Terms, Privacy & Cookie Policy

11 at https://gnudb.org/privacy.php.

12 Nevertheless, you can still proceed by

13 selecting a CD from the provided list.

Does a tool type need to be updated. No CD is recognized.

The website providing the names must have changed something… I’ll take a look…

Thanks so much. I remember something similar happened a couple of years ago. You wouldn't believe the hassle it is to rip CDs to FLAC using an old Mac!

Any movement on this issue? My CDs are piling up!

As far as I can understand, you can register your IP address here: https://gnudb.org/info.php
It'll then allow you queries from Jalapeno again.

I'll see if I can make this work better later on.

Works fine after registering. Thanks!

You can also do

setenv save CDDBP_SERVER "UNIQUECODE.gnudb.org", replacing UNIQUECODE with the Unique Code you were assigned when registering there. This should work even if your IP changes and I'll add it to the settings later...
