From a newbie

Great software!

Trying to import tag-info from freedb with the freedb option, doesnt work, getting "error connecting to freedb server...". Have followed instructions to configure in Options-Freedb-Server, no luck - any suggestions?

Also manged to get tag-info file from Freedb but doesnt work to import via "Taglist-file - tag" options, seem to be a format issue - suggestions?

Saludos  
Bjorne

bjorne,

maybe your firewall blocks Mp3tag's access to the internet? Have you tried another freedb server from the list at _Options, freedb, Server_?

Taglist-file to tag with freedb-files doesn't work, because the tag information have to be at one line for each file you want to tag. Please have a look at [this topic](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/484/1).

Best regards,  
~ Florian
