Can anyone confirm this is fixed in latest beta release?

This is an issue for me in 3.2.0.1294
When I first put the CD in, MM recognized the CD Text just fine. After I edited one track (just to experiment), all other tracks turned to Track 01, Track 02, etc...

Where is this data stored? I tried "Clear Library" yet my edit and missing CD Text still remains every time I put that CD back in.

[If this topic is closed/old I'd be happy to create a new post]
Any help would be greatly appreciated before I start ripping large stacks of CDs.

You are right, it seems to be a bug, I added it as http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=6213 to be fixed in the next version.

The reason is that MM writes info about the edited track to the C:\Windows\CDPlayer.ini , but the others tracks are missing from the C:\Windows\CDPlayer.ini.
MM should rather use combination of CD-Text/CDPlayer.ini metadata.

There are to workarounds: Add the CD to the library at first and than edit the titles.
Edit or delete CDPlayer.ini to get the CD-Text info back.

Thank you for noting the bug! I also appreciate the workaround: deleting C:\Windows\CDPlayer.ini got things back in order for now.
