What do you do when MB plainly shows your album on the right side, but only recognizes one or two tracks from it, with the rest having two eight-notes to their left? Can you just "force" MB to accept them as being correct?

Hi, if there is stuff on the left side you can just drag it across to the correct album in the right hand side - hope this is what you mean and helps :)

[solafire]

[phkontrol]

hi! This isn't XP, it's Ubuntu linux (running Gnome) :)

No problem, glad you found the video helpful! :)

@phkontrol - I don't think that is what he meant. If I add an album to the left pane and musicbrainz recognizes it, it will automagically push it to the right pane.

Sometimes the right pane shows the album as a silver cd icon rather than gold, meaning at least one track isn't recognized. Usually I find that the track is the correct one and even has the correct title, musicbrainz just doesn't mark it as green. Is there a way to "force" musicbrainz to accept the silver ones and turn them gold?

saved me tons of time, thanks mate

[jackBnimble3556]

out of date, now. Musicbrainz is good software still but this doesn't help.
