Hi listers,
Does anybody know of where I can retrieve cd data compatible with a cd 
player?  I am using jac and line 158 in the function jac_cddb.c is 
something like:
strcpy (server,"cddb.cddb.org");

Chuck if you are currently retrieving cddb data with jac surely you know 
the answer to this one.  I might consider modifying jac so it reads this 
information from a configuration file rather than hard coding the value in 
the source code.

     Thanks,
      Jim Wantz WB0TFK

Hi Jim -
I use jac for audio CD playing, but I have given up trying to
retrieve data from the CD databases. I get the impression they do
not want me to!

That's one of the reasons I went back to using cdcd to play and label my
CD's.  It works great with the default of freedb.org and I just used the
.cddb directory to extract the information for other uses.  The only
draw-back is once the data has been downloaded and saved on your disk,
there is no easy way for cdcd to display the disc ID for other uses.  I
have thought of modifying cdcd so that field could be displayed on follow
up inqueries as well as when it is shown for the first time.  This mod has
gon into my loooooong queue:).
