    Thank's catavolt!
    Good to know, that it's not my problem ;)
    So you mean - using the default skin it should work? (can not try right now cause i'm at work...)

    No idea? Maybe it's a problem of the titan skin?
    Noone who can give me a hint...???
    I get the info in Titan but can you try another skin to make sure?
    Can you post logs

    Fine that I hear from you that it should work :) I've als also seen at the homepage that it should work with titan.
    I'm very busy at the moment - but I will post logs (hopefully in a few days...)

    Pushed a little tweak to GUI plugin.
    In 2.0.0.5 if no automatic match is possible it will provide a list of potential matches and allow you to choose manually.

    mhhh, feedback in any kind would not be bad. :cry:

    wow a whole day to reply, did you pay for the support plus option ;)

    The reason for English is that this gets all its data from allmusic.com and that is only available in English.

    The plan with this was always to introduce other sources but I don't have much time or enthusiasm for this at the minute.


    The only decent source of other language artist and album info I found was last.fm however they have changed their API recently so that you can not longer get a proper artist bioagraphy in any language which makes it fairly useless now.

    Do you know of any other source of this data that is not in English (and provides an API to access it) ??
