I am still using localfree db. I have difficulty in using the text input following the "artist / album" format.
If the input matches the local freedb parameter DTITLE, then the correct cd info is retrieved.
If the input is incorrect or the album part is missing, then no info can be found.
Is it possible to use a wildcard in the text input box and get all entries containing the text?
