No Data Setting

ID. All albums ripped in this way will be placed into an artist folder called
'Unknown Artist” for later tagging and naming. There are several added
options to automatically rip. The second new option is to have a cddbid text
file placed in the album folder for unknown discs.
•
Automatically Reject
- Discs will be rejected and placed in the reject pile.

unknown discs will be placed on the reject stack.
