I’m running into an issue where using the “[Audible.com](http://Audible.com) - search by Title and Author”, returns results for UK editions. Could this be due to me being based in the UK? Using “[Audbile.com](http://Audbile.com) - Search by ASIN” works correctly. I’m on macOS using MP3Tag v1.10.3 and v0.63 of the Audible API tag source.

Yes, it's very likely the case. You could confirm using a VPN with an US IP and then switch back to an UK based.

Yeah using a US IP returns US editions. Is there a way for the tag source to override location routing without having to use a VPN? You can use `OverrideBaseCountry` with Audible URLs but I don’t know if the API has an equivalent.

Can you try using OverrideBaseCountry with the URLs in the \*.src file and see if this works the same for the API?

That didn't work unfortunately.

OK, that would have been too good.

Can you provide an example where you get the different editions? Maybe someone else might have an idea.

When I search "yesteryear caro claire burke" with [Audible.com](http://Audible.com) - search by Author + Title, I get the UK edition (B0FWF83V8S) instead of the US edition (B0FKV9JSWV)
