What is MyCD-DB?
MyCD-DB based on an idea from mcdl. For MyCD-DB the original
mcdl.pl-script is changed and extended. MyCD-DB used a other databasestructure as mcdl!
MyCD-DB allows you to quickly index your complete audio CD collection and get information about it all around the world,
because MyCD-DB has a webbased Frontend. Its also support the storage from informations how you have organized your
CD's in up to 255 CD-Changer. For every CD is the changer and the slot inside the changer stored.
What you must do to for indexing a new audio CD? Only insert the disc into your CD drive! (Thanks for this great idea
to mcdl!) First MyCD-DB contacts a CDDB database to retrieve
disc info, and then ask you for cd-changer-information and last writes artist, title, track, times and so on to a MySQL
database.
