cddb_query issue with multiple matches

Post by HerrBert »

Recently i found that some of my older Audio CD's fail to play...

ATM i'm trying to convert my CD's to .mp3 on a backup drive.
Easy and lightweight to use @plinej's pcdripper for this task.

But (as sooo often...) there is an issue, though not related to pcdripper, but to cddb_query.

Servers in pcdripper commands for cddb_query and cd-info are updated to point to gnudb.gnudb.org port: 8880 protocol: cddbp

I have a CD identified by cddb_query as /root/.cddbslave/misc/b60c2e0d
There is no adequate information about the tracknames in this file.

Using cd-info on a clean /root/.cddbslave directory, it's also detected as:
/root/.cddbslave/folk/b60c2e0d
/root/.cddbslave/rock/b60c2e0d
/root/.cddbslave/soundtrack/b60c2e0d
cd-info output:

Code: Select all

# cd-info -C /dev/cdrom --cddb-server=gnudb.gnudb.org --cddb-cache=~/.cddbslave 
--no-device-info --no-disc-mode
cd-info version 0.93 x86_64-slackware-linux-gnu

Running cd-info twice on this CD matches the desired third match /root/.cddbslave/folk/b60c2e0d
Running cddb_query twice on this CD matches /root/.cddbslave/misc/b60c2e0d again.

Seems it is not possible to get the latest revision of the CDDB file in cddb_query.
This may be related to changing from freedb.org to gnudb.org
The search and album commands in cddb_query return a server error.
So i guess, this is some API whatever stuff. :roll:
I don't want to hassle with this. I want the correct information now.

I ended up with a little script to fetch CDDB entry before running pcdripper:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
MATCH="$(cddb_query -i /dev/cdrom -s gnudb.gnudb.org -p 8880 -P cddbp query)"
NUM="$(echo "$MATCH" | grep 'Number of matches:' | cut -f2 -d ":" | tr -d " ")"
[ $NUM -gt 1 ] && {
	for ((i=1;i<=$NUM;i++)); do
		STR="$(echo "$MATCH" | grep -A1 "Match ${i}" | sed '$!d;s/.*: //;s/ (.*)\t/ /')"
		( xmessage -name "${0##*/}" -buttons "Remove,Keep" -fn mono "$(cddb_query -s gnudb.gnudb.org -p 8880 -P cddbp read ${STR} 2>&1)"
			[ $? -ne 102 ] && rm ~/.cddbslave/${STR/ /\/} ) &
	done
} || \
cddb_query -i /dev/cdrom -s gnudb.gnudb.org -p 8880 -P cddbp read 2>&1 | xmessage -name "${0##*/}" -fn mono -file -

Removing the unwanted CDDB files causes cddb_query to use the cached file that's left.

Any objection or thought on this?
