If anyone feels to pimp cdio with the MusicBrainz DB that seems to be in use more and more, you could extract and adapt the "package CDInfo::InfoSource::MusicBrainz;" from my s-cdda-to-db that is in ports. It is anyway a good starting point that works with my (granted restricted) use cases of it. The needed HTTP::Tiny and XML::Parser are there anyway iirc. (TLS is often no good, i stopped using its TLS because of that. And the JSON output did not work for the needed query alone once i implemented it, thus the XML one.) I think they get money from Microsoft, but this is not a problem for you, is it. (If someone does extract it, it needs the "sub _calc_mb_discid" result in order to do the query, and shall someone find errors, i am happy to fix them. I.e., this is perl, but doing _that_ dance in C is i think a nuisance, just parse the output of the perl thing seems better.) --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt)
