Questions / Re: Autoplay question

« on: February 04, 2021, 09:02:03 PM »

I went to:

    Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AudioCD\shell\PlayWithMusicBee\command

and changed the value to:

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\MusicBee\MusicBee.exe"

and rebooted.

    
  
I inserted a CD and MusicBee fired up, but it still played the CD.  

Did I update the correct key?

This is currently set to:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\MusicBee\MusicBee.exe" "%1"

What would I change it to?

Questions / Autoplay question

« on: February 04, 2021, 04:31:10 AM »

I have Windows 10 set to autoplay a music CD in MusicBee when the disc it is inserted.  So, when I insert a CD, MusicBee is started and the CD plays.

I would prefer that it just start up MusicBee and not actually start playing the CD.  Is this possible?

Thanks!
Bill

Bee-liever,

This was the reply from Malwarebytes.

"Hi Bill, This is a legit detection as the website is spreading malicious files. Thanks and have a great day! ".

Virustotal also flags it, https://i.imgur.com/NOZ5G9k.png.

So Malwarebytes will not whitelist the website.

I'll report it to Malwarebytes as a false positive if you would like.  Let me know.

Bee-liever,

Ah... thanks.  I don't get an error in Malwarebytes when I visit other http sites so I don't think that is the problem.  The error says "blocked due to trojan" so probably either there is a trojan or it it is a false positive.

Bee-liever

I was able to access the thread without Malwarebytes complaining.  What is i.cubeload.com and why was I getting directed to it?

Thanks!

Steven,

I'm not sure what happened.  Up until I got your reply and downloaded the patch I had no problems.  But after Bee-liever's reply I started getting an error in Malwarebytes whenever I access this thread.  No error when I access other threads.

If you read further in that article, you will also read that
They have also now resolved the issues they had where the database could not be updated.

Thanks for the info.  I didn't read far enough.

This has the freedb support added back in (via gnudb.org)
https://getmusicbee.com/patches/MusicBee34_Patched.zip
unzip and replace the existing musicbee application files

Steven,

That fixed it for all four CDs I mentioned.  All now show the correct track names and other info.

Thanks so much for the quick fix!  Great support as always.

Thanks for that link.  I checked and the other three CDs were also in MusicBrainz.  So the problem could not have been that they were not in MusicBrainz.  Looks like a problem in MB or in my system.  Since iTunes doesn't have any problem it seems like my CD drive and system are working fine.  Not sure what the problem could be. Could it be something in MB?  Could it be that MusicBrainz is not returning the information correctly for MB to display?

I am going to add back in free db as a data source pointing to a different host

I saw that, but I wasn't sure what he meant.

Yes Freedb was shut down, but some 3rd parties were able to migrate their existing database up to the shutdown point to their own servers--dbpoweramp is one of them.

Do you know if these other databases are being updated or are they just frozen at the time of the copy from MusicBrainz.

Toulouse Street is definitely in MusicBrainz, just checked using MusicBrainz-Picard v2.5.2.  You could have had a disc-read issue.

I don't think so.  iTunes was able to read the disc just fine at the same time and get the track names.  I tried 3 other CDs as well.  They also worked fine in iTunes, but not MusicBee.  I can't imagine having that many disc read issues... especially since they played just fine.

Would you also check these that didn't work in MusicBee, but did work in iTunes.

The Best Of Art Pepper
by Pepper, Art

Coltrane '58 The Prestige Recordings
by Coltrane, John

The Very Best Of The Doobie Brothers

Thanks!

Steven, thanks for the reply.

Seems hard to believe that the album Toulouse Street by The Doobie Brothers isn't in MusicBrainz.  Not sure on the John Coltrane and Art Pepper albums.  

Are you saying you are going to replace MusicBrainz with FreeDB?  I thought FreeDB was shut down.  This is what Wikipedia says "The Freedb gateway was shut down on March 18, 2019".

Thanks for the reply. How do I tell if it is in that database?  The CD's I'm having problems with today are albums by The Doobie Brothers, John Coltrane, and Art Pepper.
