Has anyone encountered this and if so what's the resolution? I was trying to copy a four-volume compiliation (this set if you're interested) onto our media server, and for some reason every disc is encoded with the same information, the information that pertains to disc 1. I have the four-disc sequel to this and it doesn't have the problem. So when I put in disc 2, the system looks like it is seeing disc 1 again. I'm not sure how best to handle it - burn the disc into a folder and rename it and export it?

I couldnt tell you what the problem is but I have used a program called "Cdex" for years for ripping cd's and it is flawless. You may want to give it a try. I think its a bit less windows nazi ish than WMP is. http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/

Sounds like one of several things.
1. WMP is not refreshing the CD titles for those disks. Exit WMP/Media Center and restart it to see if it refreshes. (not likely since it works with other disks)
2. The title info put on the CDs was the same by mistake. (also not likely but meaning you have to do it by hand)
3. WMP is pulling the title info off a database on the internet and for some reason is only finding/downloading info for disk 1 and substituting it for all the disks. (I’ve had this happen a couple of times using “Exact Audio Copy.” (this is most likely and also meaning you have to do it by hand.

Thanks Grunt - I always reboot machines before drawing any conclusions about anything so I had done the exit, meaning #1 didn't work. My worry about #3 was accidentally putting the wrong data on the disc but I can't think of another way to do it so I'll give it a go! Thanks for your help.

Yeah, those databases aren't always accurate. I've had the worst time with classical CDs. If it's anything like iTunes, you'll have to rip it first, then rename the tracks--it take the track names from the database, rather than what you've named them on the CD. But maybe WMP is smarter than that.

It's a regular can-con love fest in here, eh. (I've learned so much about Canada here. Can you tell?)
