| Has anybody successfully used GnuDB with PlayCD (or anyone of the Amiga players supporting the old CDDB format now replaced by GnuDB)?
I've tried every combination with no success at all.
Here's my current config (this one at least seems to try to connect):
Thanks in advance.

I'm using it with FreeDB and ADRipper.
In both of the configs I can see I'm using port 80, not 8880.
(Edit: Typo in port number, 8080->8880).
I'm also using the proxy setting which you have in parentheses, so try activating that tooltype - but note that you seem to have a typo in it: It says "gundb", not "gnudb" in the first part of the domain name in your setting.
It's been a while since I last tried it out, though, so no guarantees.
Best regards,
Niels

To add to what Niels has written above: I've been much more successful using gnudb.org over HTTP compared to CDDBP, so if your application allows that configuration, try using HTTP at port 80. _________________

Thank you both... corrected the typo (though it was commented out) and tried again with every possibile combination but still it doesn't work it's stuck to "no info in local cache" and then nothing happens... I'm starting to suspect that maybe it's PlayCD itself that is too old and also I will investigate further if there's some blocked traffic at my router level.
Edit: just found DAPlayer by Thomas Rapp that seems to work out of the box with CDDB/GnuDB, so great! 
Thanks again.
